Mastering the Art of Serial Entrepreneurship with Divya Gugnani of Wander Beauty & 5 SENS

“Every email that goes out with a pitch to tell someone about the brand—they may not answer, they may not opt in for product, and we may not gift them, but I built one more touch point of brand awareness and maybe [they] read that email and discovered our brand.
