“A simple invitation to wellness” that's Heywell. Today we have Ashley Selman, Co-Founder of Heywell, a line of sparkling adaptogenic drinks that helps meet the demands of modern life.
Ashley comes from the beverage industry. She had worked in marketing for a global beer manufacturer along with her co-founder Britt Dougherty. They left their jobs to start Heywell. The brand provides support for immunity, stress, natural energy, and focus. The company also gives 1% of its sales to nonprofits.
According to Ashley, running a business is a learning curve, but she loves that she's in control of it. She advises other business owners to be open-minded, flexible, passionate and committed to their business. Pivoting and going direct to consumers helped Heywell in the pandemic.
In part 1, she talks about:
* Gratefulness
* Overview of the brand
* Why Heywell
* The Brand's mission
* The reality of starting a business
* Lessons learned
Join Ramon Vela and Ashley Selman as they break down the inside story on The Story of a Brand.
