470: Why Passion Is Your Advantage with Holly Thaggard of Supergoop!

Holly Thaggard is passionate about sun protection. That passion drove her to create her multimillion-dollar skincare company, Supergoop!, which started turning the world of suncare products on its end when it launched in 2007. Last year, Supergoop! reached $250 million in sales. She combined her sunscreen with a curriculum on the importance of sun protection, which she launched in private schools. At the same time, she kept building a luxurious yet fun brand that consumers really wanted to make a part of their morning routines—both for themselves and their children. Listen to Nathan and Holly discuss: Her background in education Starting Supergoop! in response to her friend's cancer diagnosis Writing a curriculum instead of a business plan Speaking to the U.S. Congress about skin protection Pitching her products door to door at private schools The unexpected partnership with Sephora Solving a problem for a customer that they didn’t know existed Having the founder of Burt's Bees as a mentor Why you can't manufacture authenticity And much more beauty industry advice...
