How Curie targeted an underserved need and created a business opportunity  

Sarah Moret, Co-founder and CEO of Curie, joins the POD to give some insight on the  business’s growth, marketing strategy, and how the brand got started. 

Curie is a brand that develops natural and effective body care products 

Sarah recognized that when it comes to hygiene and deodorant, there is an increasing desire among customers for clean and effective ingredients. To fill this gap, Sarah created a brand that catered toward this efficacy 

A unique approach was taken to achieve organic growth by using social media as the primary source of advertising, and networking to as many people as possible to create word of mouth brand awareness
