You wanted to hear from the top DTC founders, so Nik wrangled up one of the top minds he could find in the biz for you— Dianna Cohen, the mastermind behind Crown Affair.

Dianna breaks down what contributed to the massive success of her haircare company and chats with Nik about the importance of building a strong brand story. She explains how DTC success isn’t a big bang, but a slow burn. Have too many DTC founders traded in instant gratification for patience and slow growth?

She also chats about *that* Met Gala Doja Cat moment, and explains the value of great partnerships and distribution. Which celebrity brands does Dianna think are enough to give Crown Affair a run for their money? And why are patience and time the two secret ingredients for growing a successful DTC?
