The Packology Podcast A Former CEO Becomes a Successful Entrepreneur
Lynn Power spent 30 years in advertising and marketing and loved it for a long time. She was running an agency and became the CEO of a large company, but she wasn't loving it so much anymore, so she decided to become an entrepreneur.
On this episode, we'll talk about:
- What was it that she didn't like, or was there anything on the entrepreneurial side that was pulling her away?
- Has the marketing and advertising industry changed a little bit?
- Is the push for data analytics preventing that type of creative genius moment or the opportunity to do something new and innovative?
- When did she decide to go out on her own and establish her own business?
- The Conscious Beauty Collective
- Masami Haircare
- Does she believe that activities like this will become more common as smaller independent brands or even other industries come together and pull their resources?
- What was her vision for designing and selecting their packaging, and how did she make that decision?
- Why she doesn't want to skimp on the package?
- What direction does she see clean beauty/conscious beauty taking? Does she think it's in a good spot right now? Does she think it's just a lot of marketing and promotion, or is there really something there?
Lynn is a longtime ad agency executive (formerly CEO of J. Walter Thompson NY) with a love for beauty.
