If you have a pulse, you’ve seen a huge emergence of non-alcoholic beverages on the market. New and old companies are competing for market share as the population finally gives this category the attention it deserves. In this episode, we hear how Allan and Cole think about the industry at large- why it’s growing, where other brands have gone wrong, what differentiates Acid League from the rest and how building a “League” of products builds the ultimate mote.

Most young businesses work tirelessly to launch a single product a few times a year. There's a lot that goes into product development and it's not for the faint of heart. I don't know what that makes Acid League then... seeing as they release at least one new product every. single. week. It's insanity. They have somehow managed to turn nearly their entire company into product development and use their ecommerce store as the testing ground to determine what makes it to market through their retail partners. It's incredible. In this episode, you'll get to know Allan and Cole and how they work together as a team. You'll also hear about how they landed on a previously 'unsexy' category: vinegar and are turning the overlooked category on its head. Press play to hear them tell us all about it!

Being a sustainable business alone doesn't cut it anymore. Sam and Caitlin understand that you cannot compromise on your products in order to win a category and actually change consumer behavior. Your products need to look the best, they need to be affordable, they need to be easy to buy and they need to have great branding around them. Sam and Caitlin also walk us through the tiniest micro-behaviors that you can implement today to have a positive impact on the world without a ton of effort. Finally, we bring this episode home with one of the most important messages we could have covered with these two- why entrepreneurship gives them the ability to build the life that works for them instead of fitting their life in around their work. PS- listen all the way to the end of a guest appearance from Isabelle, Caitlin's weeks-old daughter!
