Episode #84: An Inspired Entrepreneur Thinking Out of The Box!

Creating an inspiring company selling blankets? You bet!

Bob Dalton, the CEO of Sackcloth and Ashes, embarked on a mission with a unique one-to-one business model: for every blanket sold, another is donated to a homeless shelter. His passion and creativity lead to innovative production methods, collaboration with Indigenous designers, and active engagement with grassroots movements across the country.

One of his innovations is rethinking packaging - using it to inspire local grassroots connections and pay it forward by reusing the blanket boxes to donate items to homeless shelters.

Inspiring and creative, Bob Dalton is an out-of-the-box entrepreneur. He will also be a speaker at The Conscious Capitalism CEO summit in October 2024.
