我们第一次做超级碗的时候,让我给你讲讲这个事儿。

First time we did a Super Bowl, let me lay lay this down for you.

Speaker 0

我们在超级碗开赛前五天买下了超级碗的广告。

We bought the Super Bowl five days before the Super Bowl.

Speaker 0

对。

Yeah.

Speaker 0

真的,就是字面意义上的。

Literally.

Speaker 1

我全力以赴,就像在少有人走的路上休息一天一样。山姆,要不要快速来个开场白?

I put my all in it like a day's off On the road less travel Sam, wanna do like an intro real quick?

Speaker 2

好。

Yeah.

Speaker 2

所以你和你的丈夫是Poppi的创始人之一,这个品牌以20亿美元的价格卖掉了。

So you and your husband are one of the fathers of Poppi, which sold for $2,000,000,000.

Speaker 2

而且我觉得你们绝对能拿品牌蜕变奖,因为我最喜欢看的就是你们在《创智赢家》里的那段老视频。

And I would have to say you probably win the award for brand glow up because one of my favorite things to watch is this old Shark Tank video of you guys.

Speaker 2

好的。

Okay.

Speaker 2

从最初开始到现在,这个差距真的很大。

And the way that it started and the where you are now, that gap is huge.

Speaker 1

对。

Yeah.

Speaker 1

它原来叫什么来着?

What what was it called originally?

Speaker 1

叫Mother什么的?

Mothers or something?

Speaker 0

哎呀,太尴尬了。

Oh, so embarrassing.

Speaker 0

你非得说出来。

You had to say it out loud.

Speaker 0

Mother饮料。

Mother beverage.

Speaker 0

而且,是的,我觉得那真是世纪之选,史上最佳。

And, yes, I think it was a globe of the century, the best of all time.

Speaker 2

那故事是怎样的?

What was the story?

Speaker 0

那只是一个典型的美国梦创业故事,从厨房开始,源于一个个人问题。

It was just one of those beautiful entrepreneurial American dream stories where you start in your kitchen because of a personal problem.

Speaker 0

我喝苹果醋时有点胃不舒服。

I had, like, tummy problems with drinking apple cider vinegar.

Speaker 0

你知道,我讨厌那个味道。

You know, hated the taste.

Speaker 0

然后我就想,我有个主意。

And I like, I I have an idea.

Speaker 0

我可以让它更好喝。

I can make this taste better.

Speaker 0

我当时完全没想到饮料会这么火。

Little did I know how intense beverages.

Speaker 0

现在回头看,如果当时我知道现在知道的这些,我可能就不会这么做了。

Looking back, I don't think if I knew what I knew now, I would have done it.

Speaker 0

而且,不知道反而是一件特别美好的事。

And it's not knowing is just such a beautiful thing.

Speaker 2

但你基本上就是在农贸市场卖东西,而且那东西正好能治你自己的问题。

But you basically, like, were were selling something at a farmer's market that was kinda curing your own problem.

Speaker 2

而且我觉得你这么做不止一两年吧。

And I think you did that for more than a couple years.

Speaker 2

然后你遇到了一个人,他差不多说,嘿,这太棒了,但我们为什么不稍微改一下包装呢?

And then you hooked up with a guy who kinda like was like, hey, this is amazing, but why don't we tinker with the packaging a little bit?

Speaker 2

然后你筹了一点钱,然后就一路狂奔了。

And then you raised a little bit of money, and it was, like, off to the races.

Speaker 2

从零到两千万,再到六千万,再到一亿二千万,差不多就是这么疯狂。

It was, like, 0 to, like, 20,000,000 to, like, 60,000,000 to, like, a 120 or something, like, crazy like that.

Speaker 2

那是……

Was that It

Speaker 0

那是一年。

was a year.

Speaker 0

我得先给你理一下时间线。

I have to kinda ground you just to, like, in timeline.

Speaker 0

所以我们确实在农夫市集卖了两年,然后上了《创智赢家》,拿到了投资,还做了整个品牌重塑。

So we did do it for, like, two year Farmers Market, and then went on to Shark Tank, got a deal on Shark Tank and went through a whole rebrand.

Speaker 0

然后我们决定在2020年3月3日推出Poppi,正好是新冠疫情的第一周。

And then we decided to launch Poppi 03/03/2020, the first week of COVID.

Speaker 0

那是大家第一次开始关注健康和养生。

And it was, like, the first time everyone's thinking about their health health and wellness.

Speaker 0

那也是大家第一次看成分表,想知道自己吃进去的是什么,怎么增强免疫力,诸如此类的话题。

It's the first time people are looking at labels and wanting to understand what they're putting into your body and how can I boost my immune system and all of these things of the conversation?

Speaker 0

所以第一年,我们从三月开始,我记得大概做了三百万的营收。

And so that first year we were March, I think we did about 3,000,000 in revenue.

Speaker 0

然后第二年就是2250万。

And then the next year is $22.50.

Speaker 0

然后最大的飞跃是从五千万到两亿,再到五亿多,最后被收购。

And then the big jump was from 50 to 200,000,000 and then 500 plus to then be sold.

Speaker 0

所以差不多四年半的时间,做到了将近五亿五千万美元,这增长真是疯狂。

So it's like four and a half years to almost $550,000,000, which is crazy growth.

Speaker 2

在这个过程中,你有没有感到过冒充者综合征?

Did you ever feel impostor syndrome doing that?

Speaker 2

因为,你知道,每当我取得一点小成就,我就会想,天哪。

Because, like, you know, whenever I have a little bit of success, I'm like, oh, man.

Speaker 2

这是真的吗?

Is this real?

Speaker 2

这太不可思议了。

Does this this is wild.

Speaker 2

但我们的成功比你的慢多了。

But our success was a lot slower than yours.

Speaker 0

我们当时进展太快了。

We were just going so quick.

Speaker 0

当时很难静下心来去理解或想象发生了什么,因为那太不寻常了。

It was hard to even sit back and and even realize or fathom what was happening because it was so not normal.

Speaker 0

人们不明白,我们拥有的和我们的增长速度都是不正常的。

Like, people don't understand, like, what we had and what growth we had is not normal.

Speaker 0

那真的是千载难逢的机会。

It was truly lightning in a bottle.

Speaker 0

所以我不确定有没有冒名顶替综合征,因为我很自信。

And so I don't know if there's impostor syndrome because, like, I'm very confident.

Speaker 0

我们对自己正在做的事情有信心,但这并不是有保证的。

We were confident in what we were building, but it wasn't a guarantee.

Speaker 0

对吧?

Right?

Speaker 0

所以就有这么个问题,我该庆祝吗?

And so it's this thing of, like, do I celebrate?

Speaker 0

嗯,现在庆祝还太早。

Well, it's too soon to celebrate.

Speaker 0

所以当我们最终卖掉公司的时候,我确实有点懵,心想等等。

So when we finally sold, it definitely was like, wait.

Speaker 0

刚才发生了什么?

What just happened?

Speaker 0

那是四年半、五年的疯狂增长,我觉得我从来没有停下来好好享受过。

That was four and a half years, five years of this crazy growth, and I don't think I ever stopped and smelled the roses.

Speaker 1

你知道吗,就像电影里那样,第一幕总是主角在跌跌撞撞。

Did you you know, when when there's, like, a movie, and they always have, like, act one of the movie is the main character, and they're just sort of stumbling and fumbling.

Speaker 1

他们一直在挣扎,然后终于开始找到一些门路。

And they're they're they're they're struggling, and then they finally start to figure something out.

Speaker 1

第二幕就是蒙太奇,事情开始飞速发展,就像你描述的那种增长阶段。

Act two is always the montage where things start happening sort of fast and furious, and that's kind of the growth phase that you're describing.

Speaker 1

但通常,他们也就解决了一两个问题。

But they usually, know, you they they sort of figure some one or two things out.

Speaker 1

对吧?

Right?

Speaker 1

有一两件事开始真正见效,然后他们就全力投入,加倍押注在这些事上。

One or two things start to really work, and then they lean in and double down into those.

Speaker 1

就像那些能让其他所有多米诺骨牌倒下的关键因素。

And it's like the the things that makes all the other dominoes fall.

Speaker 1

所以对你们来说,时机显然是有利的,但作为创业者或创始人,你们当时具体做了些什么?

So for you guys, you're saying timing was obviously beneficial, but what were you guys doing as entrepreneurs or founders?

Speaker 1

哪些是关键的多米诺骨牌开始倒下的?

What were the key dominoes that started to fall?

Speaker 0

是的。

Yes.

Speaker 0

我们是最早真正大力投入TikTok的创始人主导品牌之一。

We were one of the first founder led brands to really lean in to TikTok.

Speaker 0

那时候,那里简直是蛮荒之地。

And back then, it was the wild wild west.

Speaker 0

你还在那儿跳舞呢。

And you were doing dances.

Speaker 0

你在拍食谱视频。

You're doing recipe videos.

Speaker 0

你就是在拍各种好玩的转场视频。

You're just, like, literally doing all these, like, fun transition videos.

Speaker 0

你是不是有点为了火不惜出丑的感觉?

Do you have, like, almost making a fool of yourself to try to go viral?

Speaker 0

因为我对TikTok有点个人执念。

Because I I had this, like, personal obsession with TikTok.

Speaker 0

而且挺有意思的。

And and it's funny.

Speaker 0

我知道你们请过Rohan来。

I know you guys have had Rohan on.

Speaker 0

我记得他说,Allison,那是给年轻小孩和跳舞的人玩的。

And I remember him being like, Allison, that's for, like, young kids and dancers.

Speaker 0

别试,别试。

And don't don't try.

Speaker 0

他其实并没有反对。

He wasn't, like, against it by any means.

Speaker 0

基本上没人真正玩转那个平台。

Like, no one really got that platform.

Speaker 0

所以我就想,好吧,我晚上和周末花点时间在上面玩玩,直到我们终于火了。

And so I was like, okay, I'll spend my nights and weekends and I'll play around on it until we finally went viral.

Speaker 0

我们在那个平台上取得了很大的成功。

And we had a lot of success on the platform.

Speaker 0

我觉得这是我们能这么快成长的一个非常重要的推动力。

And I think it was a really big key driver in why we grew so fast.

Speaker 0

因为通常来说,如果你是一个主打健康食品的品牌,你会在洛杉矶、纽约、迈阿密这些大城市起步,然后慢慢向内陆扩展。

Because typically, if you're a better for you brand, you pull up in LA, New York, Miami, these like major hubs, and then you kind of grow inwardly.

Speaker 0

但如果你从一开始就带着数字优先的思维来经营业务,我们就有客户,我记得有一次,我们的重点目标之一竟然是北达科他州的法戈。

But when you grow up with a digital first mindset within the business from core day one, we had people like, I think at one point, one of our top targets was like Fargo, North Dakota.

Speaker 0

还有俄亥俄州的辛辛那提、德克萨斯州的休斯顿这些地方。

And all of these like Cincinnati, Ohio, Houston, Texas.

Speaker 0

所以当你真正是一个数字优先的品牌时,你就能真正突破,更快地到达更多地方。

And so when you're a true digital first brand, you can really break through and go to more places quicker.

Speaker 0

这就像是一种现代的实地营销策略。

It's like a modern field day marketing type tactic.

Speaker 0

对吧?

Right?

Speaker 0

你是想站在全食超市里发30个样品呢?

Do you wanna stand in a Whole Foods and give away 30 samples?

Speaker 0

还是想做点事情,教育用户,投入广告费,让你的广告自然出现在推荐页上,让30万人看到?

Or do you wanna do something and educate and put paid behind it and push your ads out organically to the FYP page and get 300,000 people to see it?

Speaker 0

所以我觉得这真的是让我们和其他品牌不同的一个大点。

And so I think that was a really big thing that really just made us different than other brands.

Speaker 0

现在每个人都在这么做,对吧?

Now everyone's doing it, right?

Speaker 0

这已经成为每个人营销组合的一部分了。

It's it's part of everyone's marketing mix.

Speaker 0

但我觉得另一个很重要的点是我们先做品牌。

But I think another really big one is we were brand first.

Speaker 0

所以我们的首要KPI是品牌知名度。

So our number one KPI was brand awareness.

Speaker 0

我们怎么在做的每一个决定中,真正打造一个能长久传承的品牌?

How do we truly build a long lasting generational brand with every ounce of every decision that we did?

Speaker 0

甚至到像我们在Costco的混合装应该是什么样这种细节。

Down to if we were like, what should be our variety pack at Costco?

Speaker 0

数据告诉我们,应该是根汁汽水、奶油苏打和可乐。

And the data was saying, you know, it should be root beer, this cream soda, and cola.

Speaker 0

我就会说,但这些颜色搭配起来不好看。

And I'd be like, well, those colors don't look good together.

Speaker 0

我们的采购就会说,等等,什么?

And our buyers would be like, wait, what?

Speaker 0

我就说,不行。

And I'm like, no.

Speaker 0

不行。

No.

Speaker 0

它必须在货架上看起来鲜艳夺目。

It has to be vibrant on the shelf.

Speaker 0

它必须能吸引眼球,让人一眼就注意到。

It has to jump and people have to right.

Speaker 0

我们做的每一个决定都是品牌优先,数字优先。

Every decision that we had was brand first, digital first.

Speaker 0

这说起来容易做起来难。

And it's easier said than done.

Speaker 0

我说得好像这是常识一样,但很多人还是做不到这些。

I say this like it's it's common sense, but a lot of people still don't do these things.

Speaker 2

你身上有一种能量,我在很多非常成功的朋友身上都见过,尤其是女性朋友,她们基本上就像闯进瓷器店的公牛,虽然男性和女性都有这种特质,但你把这种能量包装得更吸引人,比如我很多像公牛一样闯进瓷器店的朋友,我看着她们,心想,你真是个一团糟的人,但你可能总能搞定。

You sort of have this energy that I've I've seen with a lot of my very successful friends, particularly the women, where they basically are like a bolded China shop, which both men and women are, but you've like wrapped it in a much more, like, appealing package where like, lot of my friends who are bold in the China shops, they like I look at them, I'm like, you're a you're kind of a wreck, but, like, you'll probably gotta figure it out.

Speaker 2

但我在Instagram上看你的内容时,你非常接地气,尽管你超级成功,但你仍然有那种特质,就像A在这里,B在这里,一条直线,然后拼命往前跑。

But when I watch your stuff on Instagram, you're very relatable even though that even though you're crazy successful, and yet you still have this, like, attribute where it's like, a is here, b is here, the straight line, and just go and run as fast as you can.

Speaker 0

对。

Yeah.

Speaker 0

嗯,我觉得是自信。

Well, I think it's confidence.

Speaker 0

所以人们总是问我,艾莉森,你怎么这么自信?

So people ask me all the time like, Allison, how are you so confident?

Speaker 0

我自信是因为我失败过,也丢过很多次脸,这么多年才慢慢摸索出什么有效,以及怎么才能自信。

I'm confident because I failed and made a total fool of myself for so many years to kind of figure out what works and how how to be confident.

Speaker 0

比如,大家都看到那19.5亿美元的退出,但他们没看到或记得我站在农贸市场的折叠桌旁,问人家:你想尝尝这个苹果醋饮料吗?

Like, for example, everyone sees this $1,950,000,000 exit, but they don't see or remember me standing at a farmer's market at a folding table saying, you wanna try this apple cider vinegar drink?

Speaker 0

那真的很尴尬。

Like, that's so embarrassing.

Speaker 0

所以,这就是一种能力,我活出了美国梦。

And so it's this ability of, like, I have lived the American dream.

Speaker 0

我是由单亲妈妈带大的。

I was raised by a single mother.

Speaker 0

我自己也有孩子。

I have kids myself.

Speaker 0

说到底,就算公司已经卖了,今晚我还是得去接孩子上足球课。

Like, end of the day, even post exit, I still have soccer practice tonight I have to go to.

Speaker 0

而且我们在德州,天气有100度那么热。

And we're in Texas, and it's a 100 degree weather.

Speaker 0

我就是过着普通的生活。

Like, I'm just living life.

Speaker 0

我觉得这就是为什么网上的人能跟我产生共鸣,因为他们在我的身上看到了自己的影子。

And I think within it, it was relatable with people online because they saw themselves in me.

Speaker 0

而且说到自信,我其实并不是一直都那么自信的。

And then that confidence piece is like, wasn't always that confident.

Speaker 0

但我觉得我只是让自己在整个过程中都那么坦诚、真实地分享。

But I think that I've just allowed myself to share so openly and authentically the entire journey.

Speaker 0

所以大家也看到了我是怎么一步步变得自信的。

And so people have kinda seen the journey of me becoming confident as well.

Speaker 1

你是怎么上《创智赢家》的?

How'd you get on Shark Tank?

Speaker 1

背后的故事是什么?

What was the story?

Speaker 2

我觉得最好的成功方式就是看看别人是怎么做到的,不管你是想模仿他们,还是只是当作灵感,因为这样你就知道什么是可能的了。

I think the best way to become successful is to see how other people did it, whether you're gonna copy them or just use it as inspiration, because then now you know what's possible.

Speaker 2

所以从24岁开始,我就不停地这么做,而且非常有条理。

So starting at the age of 24, I did this relentlessly and I was very methodical about it.

Speaker 2

我建了一个电子表格,追踪了大概50个非常成功的人。

And I created a spreadsheet where I tracked roughly 50 people who were uber successful.

Speaker 2

我看了他们出生的年份、开始学徒的年份、开始做第一件让他们成功的事情的年份,最后是他们取得突破的年份。

And I looked at the year that they were born, year that they started their apprenticeship, and then the year that they started the first thing that made them successful, finally, the year that they broke through.

Speaker 2

我把这些数据和他们当学徒时做了什么、最后怎么突破的故事都汇总起来。

And I aggregated all this data along with the stories of what they did to be an apprentice and what they did to finally break through.

Speaker 2

然后我把这些整理成了一个数据库。

And I put it together in a database.

Speaker 2

HubSpot后来找到了这个东西,说实话我自己都忘了,但它确实改变了我的生活,他们又把它重新拿了出来。

And HubSpot went and found this thing that I frankly even forgot about, but it did change my life and they resurfaced it.

Speaker 2

他们还把它做得更好了。

They made it even better.

Speaker 2

而且他们把它做成了现在可以免费下载的东西。

And they put it into a thing that you can download for free right now.

Speaker 2

所以如果你点击描述里的链接,或者扫这里的二维码,就能看到我24岁时做的这个数据库,它改变了我的生活。

So if you click the link in the description or click the QR code right here, you can see this database that I made when I was 24, and it changed my life.

Speaker 2

所以如果你正想成功,或者你已经成功了,只是想找点灵感,那就去看看吧。

And so if you're looking to become successful or you're already successful and just want some more inspiration, check it out.

Speaker 0

《创智赢家》。

Shark Tank.

Speaker 0

我们超爱《创智赢家》。

We love Shark Tank.

Speaker 0

这节目真的很棒,说实话,因为我上过这个节目,也当过评委,两边都体验过。

It's just such a beautiful literally, because I've also been on the show, but I've also been a judge on it and seen both sides of the show.

Speaker 0

而且他们真的希望人们能拿到投资。

And they absolutely want people to get deals.

Speaker 0

他们希望人们成功,而且他们的初衷非常好。

They want people to be successful and they have such good intention.

Speaker 0

所以整个过程就是,如果你有一个好点子,而且你确实有一些概念验证,你在节目上很可能会取得不小的成功。

And so the whole process of it is if you have a good idea and you actually have some kind of proof of concept, you will probably have quite a bit of success on the show.

Speaker 0

所以对我们来说,这就像是我们已经做了一段时间的事情。

And so for us, it was one of those things that like, we had been doing it for a bit.

Speaker 0

当时Mother Beverage,我们大概已经做了50万美元的营收。

Mother Beverage at the time, we had done about 500,000 in revenue.

Speaker 0

而且当时到了那种地步,如果没有投资,我们就撑不下去了。

And it was that point of like, if investment, we can't sustain this.

Speaker 0

对吧?

Right?

Speaker 0

我们每周工作八十个小时。

We were working eighty hours a week.

Speaker 0

我们当时有个孩子,孩子也快出生了。

We had a kid, a kid on the way.

Speaker 0

史蒂文还得打第二份工来还房贷。

Steven was working a second job just to pay our mortgage.

Speaker 0

这种拼命的日子你撑不了多久的。

And you can only be in that rat race for so long.

Speaker 0

所以《鲨鱼坦克》对我们来说就是个绝佳的机会。

And so Shrek Tank was just this beautiful opportunity.

Speaker 0

我们就排队等着,把心里话全说了出来,结果制片人特别喜欢我们。

So we stood in line, poured our hearts out, and, you know, the producers fell in love with us.

Speaker 0

后来呢,我们特别幸运,跟一个在饮料行业特别厉害的人达成了合作。

And then going on, we were so blessed to have gotten a deal with someone that's so good in beverage.

Speaker 0

对吧?

Right?

Speaker 0

这些年发生在我们身上的事,那些打开的门,真的有点不可思议。

Like, it's the things that have happened to us over the years, these doors that have opened, it's it's just kinda crazy.

Speaker 0

所以我们和布罗·贾诺萨达成了合作。

So we got a deal with bro Janosa.

Speaker 0

他在饮料行业有很丰富的历史。

He had a great history in beverage.

Speaker 0

和他一起工作、一起发展,但说实话,我觉得其他鲨鱼不会给我们这个机会。

And so working with him and building it, but Shark Tank, you know, I don't think any other shark would have given us a deal.

Speaker 2

你知道,肖恩是做电商的。

What was the you know, Shaan's in the ecommerce space.

Speaker 2

我们有很多做电商的人。

We've had a bunch of people in ecommerce.

Speaker 2

我自己没做过,但通过他们,我算是间接体验了一把。

I've not been in it personally, but I've been able to, like, live voyeuristically through these folks.

Speaker 2

看起来,你增长得越快,现金流就越紧张,尤其是在库存管理方面。

And what it seems is like the fastest you the faster you grow, the more cash flow sucks in terms of and inventory management.

Speaker 2

而且有很多问题,比如表面上的数字很好看,但其他方面却有点撑不住。

And there's like a lot of like issues where like the top line number is amazing, but some of the other stuff is kind of breaking.

Speaker 2

你们整个过程都是现金流为正的吗?

Were you cash flow positive the entire time?

Speaker 2

那是什么样的感觉?

And what was that like?

Speaker 0

我觉得我们直到卖掉之前都没怎么盈利,但这是有意为之的。

I don't think we were profitable until, like, right before we sold, but it was intentional.

Speaker 0

我觉得我们本可以缩减业务,专注转化率,真正实现盈利。

I think we could have starved the business and really focused on conversion and how do we really be profitable.

Speaker 0

但如果你是在打造品牌,那成本很高。

But if you are brand building, it's expensive.

Speaker 0

做饮料生意成本很高。

It's expensive to do a beverage.

Speaker 0

所以每一步,无论是董事会、高层领导还是创始人,我们都在有意地把钱重新投入到品牌上,并且一直在融资。

So every step of the way with the board, the senior leadership, the founders, we were intentionally reinvesting back in the brand and raising the entire time.

Speaker 0

对吧?

Right?

Speaker 2

总共是40吗?

Was it 40 total?

Speaker 0

我觉得大概七十多吧。

I think it was closer to like in the seventies.

Speaker 2

那你们把所有的钱都花完了吗?

And do you you spent all of it?

Speaker 0

是的。

Yeah.

Speaker 0

当然。

Absolutely.

Speaker 0

我们买了好几次超级碗的广告。

We bought multiple Super Bowl ads.

Speaker 0

我们还在电视上投放。

We're running TV.

Speaker 0

我们和创作者合作做营销。

We are marketing with creators.

Speaker 0

我们正在和Fifth Cent做快闪活动。

We are doing pop ups with Fifth Cent.

Speaker 0

对吧?

Right?

Speaker 0

所有这些大型的脑力建设活动都非常不同。

Like, all of these big brain building activities are so different.

Speaker 0

我们不是传统的D2C公司。

We aren't a traditional d to c company.

Speaker 0

实际上我们不是D2C公司。

We're actually not a d to c company.

Speaker 0

我们从第一天起就100%在亚马逊上,这是我们董事会做出的决定。

We were a 100% on Amazon from day one, which was a decision we made as a board to do that.

Speaker 0

这个决定非常明智,但作为饮料,在亚马逊上赚不了多少钱。

And it was such a good decision, but you you don't make a lot of money on Amazon as a beverage.

Speaker 0

所以我们把它看作一个很好的营销策略,用来提高知名度,因为亚马逊覆盖了美国很多家庭。

And so we saw it as a great marketing tactic for awareness because it's in so many households across America.

Speaker 0

所以这些决定都是有意为之的,我觉得人们不明白,如果你想成功,你就得说到做到。

So all of these decisions were intentional, and I think people don't get if you wanna be successful, you have to put your money where your mouth is.

Speaker 1

你,我记得你提到过Rohan。

You I think you mentioned Rohan.

Speaker 1

他上过我们的播客。

He came on the pod.

Speaker 1

我当时挺震惊的。

I was kinda blown away.

Speaker 1

我觉得那家伙太棒了。

I thought I think that guy's awesome.

Speaker 1

我从其他几个人那里听说过他,他投资过一些项目,我觉得他在营销或者饮料方面有点像天才。

I've heard about him from a few other people that he's invested with, and he I think he's kind of a a, like, bit of a savant with marketing or beverage.

Speaker 1

我不知道该怎么形容,但这只是我作为外人的看法。

I don't know what I don't know how to describe it, but this is just me from the outside.

Speaker 1

我很好奇从内部看是怎样的。

I'm curious from the inside.

Speaker 1

他做过什么特别有用或者有启发的事情,或者教过你们什么,或者帮你们指引过方向?

What was something very useful or insightful that he did or taught you guys about or helped guide you guys towards?

Speaker 0

你知道吗,我觉得这得看公司发展的不同阶段。

You know, I think it's in different stages of the business.

Speaker 0

早期的时候,主要是资金和人脉。

In the early days, it was the money and the connections.

Speaker 0

对吧?

Right?

Speaker 0

我觉得如果你拿了投资或者任何资金,却得不到真正有意义的人脉网络,那这笔钱就白拿了。

I think that if you are taking on capital or any kind of investment and you can't get that network that's actually meaningful network, it's pointless.

Speaker 0

因为现在你有了这么多钱,花完了之后,你会想,我在这儿干嘛呢?

Because now you have all this money and you spend it and you don't have you're like, what am I doing here?

Speaker 0

所以他帮我们通过他的人脉招到了最初的大概五个人,那些人都非常出色,一直陪我们到公司退出。

So he helped us get our first, like, five hires within his network that were incredible and with us till the exit.

Speaker 0

对吧?

Right?

Speaker 0

这对业务影响非常大。

That was a huge impact on the business.

Speaker 0

除此之外,他有个叫Stevie的搭档,跟他合作了十五年,他可能在播客里提过她,她在品牌定位和传播信息方面特别厉害。

On top of it, he has this woman, Stevie, he's worked with for fifteen years, and he might have mentioned her on the podcast, but she is just brilliant in brand positioning and and messaging.

Speaker 0

从Mother到Poppi的整个品牌重塑都是她帮我们做的。

And she's the one that did all the rebrand with us from Mother to Poppi.

Speaker 0

所以能在早期就把这些落实,让我们之后可以专注于品牌本身。

So being able to bring that to life really early on allowed us to then focus on the brand.

Speaker 0

我的意思是,在Mother阶段,我们光顾着给瓶子盖盖子。

So what I mean is when we're in Mother, we were so focused on putting caps on bottles.

Speaker 0

我根本没法去想什么营销策略。

I I couldn't even have thought about what the marketing strategy was.

Speaker 0

但我们在《创智赢家》拿到投资后,就停了九个月。

But when we got a deal on Shark Tank, we took nine months off.

Speaker 0

我们做了品牌重塑。

We went through we did a rebrand.

Speaker 0

我们问自己,这个产品是给谁做的?

And we asked ourselves, who is this product for?

Speaker 0

我们的消费者是谁?

Who is our consumer?

Speaker 0

我们退一步想,我们到底在做什么?

We stepped back, what are we doing here?

Speaker 0

然后我们就出去开始卖了。

Then we went out and started selling.

Speaker 0

所以当我们卖的时候,我们很清楚自己是谁。

So then when we were selling, we knew who we were.

Speaker 0

很多品牌都不做这些功课。

A lot of brands don't do that work.

Speaker 0

他们只关心怎么拿到下一单。

They're just constantly con concerned with how do I get the next sale?

Speaker 0

怎么拿下下一个客户。

How do I get the next account?

Speaker 0

而不是问自己,我为什么在这里?

Not why am I here?

Speaker 0

我为什么要做这件事?

Why am I doing this?

Speaker 0

我的能力是什么?

What is my can?

Speaker 0

就像,他们没有问这些问题。

Like, you're not they're not asking these questions.

Speaker 0

所以我觉得我们给了自己时间去思考这些。

And so I think we allowed ourselves to have time with this.

Speaker 0

然后随着业务的发展,Rohan开始真正信任团队。

And then I think as the stage of the business grew, Rohan then started really trusting the team.

Speaker 0

我们引进了非常优秀的高层管理。

We brought in incredible senior leadership.

Speaker 0

所以他就转向了更像董事会那样的角色。

So it moved over to, like, more of a board, like, role.

Speaker 0

他全程都深度参与,头脑风暴讨论时也特别给力。

He was always heavily involved throughout, great in the brainstorming conversations and all.

Speaker 0

但随着公司发展,我们招了很多特别聪明的人,比我聪明的人,来给我们真正出谋划策。

But I as the business grew, we hired on really smart people, people smarter than me, to come in and, like, really advise.

Speaker 2

嘿。

Hey.

Speaker 2

超级碗广告的经济账是怎么算的?

What's the economics of a Super Bowl commercial?

Speaker 2

你们做了几个?两个还是一个?

You guys did did you guys do two or one?

Speaker 0

我们也做过好几个。

We've done a few too.

Speaker 0

大家可能不知道,超级碗广告不只是买媒体时段,还有制作成本,以及超级碗之后的持续投入。

What people don't realize about a Super Bowl commercial is, sure, there's the media buy, but then there's the production buy, and then there's the sustaining after the Super Bowl.

Speaker 0

取决于你买30秒还是60秒,价格从600万到1100万美元不等。

Depends on if you do a 30 or a 60, they're anywhere from 6 to $11,000,000.

Speaker 0

这个价格对所有人都是统一的。

It's a standard price for everybody.

Speaker 0

但如果你要请人来拍,成本又是多少呢?

But what is the cost if you're gonna hire to do it?

Speaker 0

比如导演、摄制组?

A director, a film crew?

Speaker 0

然后之后怎么维持热度?

And then how do you sustain that after?

Speaker 0

所以你在超级碗上投放广告,触达了观众。

So you hit people at the at the Super Bowl with a Super Bowl ad.

Speaker 0

你还需要再用大约七次线性广告来持续触达他们。

You gotta hit them about seven more times with more linear ads.

Speaker 0

对吧?

Right?

Speaker 0

所以这部分你也得投入。

And so that you have to also invest in.

Speaker 0

所以我觉得你还得有分销渠道。

So I think you also have to have distribution.

Speaker 0

如果只在五家店里有卖,那做广告就没意义了。

It's pointless to do it if you're in five stores.

Speaker 0

我们第一次做超级碗广告的时候,基本上已经进入了全国几乎所有的杂货店。

At the time that we did our first Super Bowl ad, we were finally in almost every grocery store nation.

Speaker 0

我们当时非常关注品牌知名度的目标,想着怎么在超级碗期间把知名度提上去。

We were really focused on our awareness goals and how do we, you know, up the awareness while Super Bowl.

Speaker 0

我记得我们做了广告,第二天知名度一夜之间翻了三倍。

I remember we did it, and the day after, we tripled our awareness overnight.

Speaker 0

之前大家真的没把我们当成汽水品牌。

And no one had really seen us as a soda.

Speaker 0

他们觉得,哦,这是气泡水,或者更健康的选择之类的。

They were like, oh, there's sparkling water or better for you this.

Speaker 0

超级碗之后,我们统计过,那个广告里我们说了17次我们是汽水。

After the Super Bowl, we said we were a soda 17 times in that Super Bowl ad.

Speaker 0

之后,大家都把我们当成汽水了。

Afterwards, everyone follows us as a soda.

Speaker 0

所以我们做这件事背后有很多刻意的考量,对我们来说是个突破。

So there was a lot of intentional motion behind why we did that, and it was breakthrough for us.

Speaker 2

那你记得总成本是多少吗?

Well, do you remember the all in costs?

Speaker 2

当时有没有实时分析,比如看网站流量之类的?

And then was there, like, analytics live and, like, looking at your website traffic?

Speaker 2

那是什么感觉?

What was that like?

Speaker 0

我们第一次做超级碗广告的时候,我给你讲讲具体情况吧。

First time we did a Super Bowl, let me lay lay this down for you.

Speaker 0

我们是在超级碗开赛前五天才买下广告位的。

We bought the Super Bowl five days before the Super Bowl.

Speaker 0

真的,一点不夸张。

Literally.

Speaker 2

那肯定压力很大吧。

So That must have been stressful.

Speaker 0

那其实不正常。

So that's not normal.

Speaker 0

大多数人都会提前一年买。

Most people buy it a year ahead of time.

Speaker 0

所以呢,我们之前做了很多准备工作。

And so what happened is we'd done a bunch of brain work.

Speaker 0

我们策划了一个创意广告,主题是汽水的未来,现在这个品牌叫Poppi。

We put together a creative campaign on how where the future of the soda or future of soda is now called Poppi.

Speaker 0

我们把这个创意做出来了,看了之后觉得它很适合长期投放,就打算在所有传统媒体和流媒体渠道上一直播。

And we brought this creative to life and we saw it and it was just gonna be an evergreen brain campaign that we're gonna run across all of our linear media channels and streaming.

Speaker 0

我们看到这个广告片,感觉它特别有感染力。

And we saw this piece of content and it was very anthemic.

Speaker 0

拍得很美。

It was beautiful.

Speaker 0

它就像给我们讲述了汽水的故事和它的演变过程。

It just like told us the story of soda and the evolution of it.

Speaker 0

我当时就想,等等,这可是超级碗广告啊。

I'm like, wait, this is a Super Bowl ad.

Speaker 0

我们就去买了。

We went to go buy one.

Speaker 0

你不能在开赛前随便买超级碗广告的。

You can't just like buy Super Bowl ad right before.

Speaker 0

但大公司就是这么做的,他们会为自己的多个品牌买一堆超级碗广告,有时候最后用不上。

But it's what big companies do is they'll buy a bunch of Super Bowl ads, say like for a bunch of their brands and sometimes they end up not using them at the end.

Speaker 0

然后这些广告就会流入二级市场,我们还真找到了一个。

And they'll go on the market for, like, secondary buy on the brand And net we found one.

Speaker 0

我当时在TikTok活动上跟人吃饭。

I was, like, at a dinner with someone at a TikTok event.

Speaker 0

他们说,对,我好像有个品牌有这么一个广告位。

And they're like, yeah, I think one of my brands has one.

Speaker 0

我当时就说,天哪,我能让他和我们首席营销官聊聊吗?

And I was like, oh my gosh, can I get him on with our CMO?

Speaker 0

我们当时的首席营销官安迪·贾德和他来回沟通了几次,然后我们就买下了那个广告位。

And our CMO at the time, Andy Judd, went back with him back and forth and we bought it.

Speaker 0

然后我们就想,好吧,现在该怎么激活这个广告呢?

And we're like, okay, now how do we activate?

Speaker 0

因为我们没法在门店里做活动。

Because we can't activate in store.

Speaker 0

所以很难说清楚总成本,因为通常会有门店活动、创作者推广、媒体投放、网站建设、制作费用等等。

So it's really hard to talk about the all in cost because typically there's store activation, there's creator activation, there's, you know, the media of it all, there's website, there's production.

Speaker 0

说实话,我们第一次投超级碗广告的时候,这些都没来得及做。

We didn't get to do any of that, honestly, with our first Super Bowl.

Speaker 0

第二次的时候,我们和查理·XCX合作,当时就是想玩得开心一点。

And then the second time around, we did it with Charlie XCX, and it was one of these moments where we wanted to just have, like, a fun time with it.

Speaker 0

所以整个广告就是围绕那种氛围感来做的。

So it was, like, all about the vibes within it.

Speaker 0

其实不是那样的,就是纯粹的氛围感。

It wasn't this, like it was just, like, vibes.

Speaker 0

她早前说的那句话,就是我们的标语。

Early thing she said, that was, the tagline.

Speaker 0

那就是Poppi的氛围。

That was just, like, Poppi vibes.

Speaker 0

所以我们就是不一样。

And so we're just different.

Speaker 0

我们其实不太在意你问的那些细节。

Like, we're not super concerned with all of those, like, little aspects that you're asking.

Speaker 0

说实话,我连完整数字都不知道。

And I I honestly don't even know the full number.

Speaker 0

我相信如果我问我们的CMO,他肯定知道。

I'm sure if I asked our CMO, he would.

Speaker 2

Shaan,你听了这个有什么感觉?

Shaan, how does that make you feel?

Speaker 2

因为我们很多做电商的朋友,可能很多都不如那些大牛成功,但他们特别看重数据和指标。

Because a bunch of our friends who are in ecommerce and probably many of the ones that are, like, significantly less successful than the greats, are so, like, cat driven and so metrics driven.

Speaker 2

而她说的正好相反。

And she's sort of saying the exact opposite.

Speaker 1

你看,这就是我们做播客的原因,因为成功的方法有千百种。

Well, look, that's why that's why we do the podcast is because there's a thousand different ways to win.

Speaker 1

所以我们喜欢请人来聊聊,了解你是怎么成功的。

And so we like to invite people on to understand how how did you win?

Speaker 1

你做了什么?

What did you do?

Speaker 1

你的思维方式是怎样的?

What are how does your brain work?

Speaker 1

这正是它的魅力所在。

That's part of the the beauty of it.

Speaker 1

但话说回来,他们并不是做电商的。

But also, they're not in ecommerce.

Speaker 1

他们是做快消品的。

They're CPG.

Speaker 1

他们是做零售的。

They're in retail.

Speaker 1

所以,我刚才看了你提到的那个超级碗广告,它一开始就说,你是地球上的人类,在整个人类历史中,事情一直以某种方式做,汽水也一直以某种方式做。

And so, like, I was just looking at the Super Bowl ad, the the first one you were talking about, and it starts with, like, you're a human on Earth, and in all of human human existence, but things have been done a certain way and soda has been done a certain way.

Speaker 1

这是Poppi。

This is Poppi.

Speaker 1

Poppi看起来像汽水。

Poppi looks like soda.

Speaker 1

尝起来也像汽水,但最后有它的差异化卖点。

It tastes like soda, but and and then it has the differentiator at the end of it.

Speaker 1

所以,我挺喜欢这个的。

And so, like, I kinda dig that.

Speaker 1

我觉得定位真的被低估了。

Like, the I think positioning is super underrated.

Speaker 1

我觉得大多数创始人根本不懂怎么做定位。

Don't I think most founders know how to do positioning at all.

Speaker 1

他们一上来就急着卖卖卖,但前期根本没想清楚,这个东西要怎么在别人脑子里留下印象?

I think they jump straight into trying to go sell, sell, sell, but they haven't done the upfront work of figuring out, well, how is this gonna live in someone's mind?

Speaker 1

而且别人凭什么要买这个?

And why would anybody wanna buy this?

Speaker 1

因为人家根本不在乎你,你得用一种独特的方式融入他们的世界观,才能突破重围,让销售更有效。

Because they don't care about you, and you have to sort of fit into their worldview in some unique way to break through, to make the all the selling more effective.

Speaker 1

所以我特别欣赏的是,名字、品牌、包装、定位这些。

And so what I really like is, like, the name, the brand, the packaging, the positioning.

Speaker 1

你们在这方面简直像上了堂大师课,我觉得这是被严重低估的创始人技能。

You know, you guys kinda did a masterclass on that, and I think that's a pretty underrated founder skill.

Speaker 1

我觉得没多少人能做好这件事。

I don't think many people do that well.

Speaker 1

你觉得谁做得好,还是说你觉得大家都搞砸了?

Who do you do you think people do that well, or do you think people screw that up?

展开剩余字幕(还有 480 条)
Speaker 1

比如你逛商店的时候,会不会就觉得,天哪,这也错,那也错,全都不对?

Like, when you walk through the stores, are you just like, oh god.

Speaker 1

是不是觉得到处都是问题?

That's wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong?

Speaker 0

不幸的是,大多数人确实做得不对。

Most people do it wrong, unfortunately.

Speaker 0

我教大师课,到处跑,讲品牌,讲怎么在TikTok上脱颖而出,这些对我来说都是本能反应,但对别人来说却像打开了新世界的大门。

I teach, like, master classes, and I go all over and I speak on brand and how you can break through on TikTok and all of these things that are inherently so first experience for me, just like second nature, and it's blowing their minds.

Speaker 0

然后他们听完课,虽然很震撼,但还是不去做。

And then they'll go in and their mind is blown and they're still not doing it.

Speaker 0

我真的很不理解。

And I just like actually don't get it.

Speaker 0

所以说到品牌定位,这在我们一直做的事情里是核心中的核心,而且它其实是一份永远在更新的文件。

So when it comes to brand positioning, it is so core to what we've always done that is actually always an ever breathing document.

Speaker 0

我们知道我们是在为下一代彻底改变汽水行业。

So we knew we were revolutionizing soda for the next generation.

Speaker 0

我们知道我们给了每个人重新爱上汽水的自由,而且是最好的汽水,没有任何负担。

We knew we were giving everyone the freedom to love soda again at its best without all the baggage.

Speaker 0

好。

Cool.

Speaker 0

北极星。

North Star.

Speaker 0

这一点永远不会变。

That is never gonna change.

Speaker 0

但会变的是文化的变化。

But what does change is how culture changes.

Speaker 1

但我能先打断你一下吗?

But can I can I pause you real quick?

Speaker 1

因为你说我们知道我们要革新汽水。

Because you're saying we knew we were gonna revolutionize soda.

Speaker 1

但《创智赢家》那件事真的很有意思,因为你当时带着一个不太好的品牌、不太好的包装上节目,而且谈的还不是汽水。

But the Shark Tank thing is a really interesting thing because you were on there with a brand that was not that great, packaging that was not that great, not talking about soda.

Speaker 1

所以在鲨鱼 tank 交易之后的九个月里,你们经历了某种重生,在某个会议室的对话中,有人提出了好问题,也有人给出了好答案。

So something happened in that nine months after the shark tank deal where you guys had some sort of, like, you know, rebirth and some conversation in a meeting room somewhere where somebody asked them good questions and somebody had some good answers.

Speaker 1

你能描述一下那些会议中发生了什么吗?

So can you describe what was happening in those meetings?

Speaker 1

或者,是什么有用的提问、练习、顾问或者别的什么,帮助你们达到了那种清晰度?

Or, like, what was the useful either question or exercise or consultant or whatever you did that helps you kinda get that level of clarity?

Speaker 0

你知道吗?

You know?

Speaker 0

我觉得这就像一份不断更新的文件。

And and I think it's it's this ever breezing document.

Speaker 0

我们最初推出时,是苹果醋、益生元,非常简单的肠道健康产品。

So when we first launched, it was apple cider vinegar, prebiotics, like super simple gut health.

Speaker 0

我们知道我们瞄准的是汽水市场。

We knew we were going after soda.

Speaker 0

不。

No.

Speaker 0

这归根结底是因为没人相信我们。

It goes back to nobody believed us.

Speaker 0

我们当时甚至不知道,但嘿,我们要进入的是一个巨大的品类。

We didn't even know, but, hey, we're gonna this is a huge category.

Speaker 0

而且康普茶当时正在走下坡路。

And kombucha was on the declines.

Speaker 0

气泡水并不能给每个人带来他们想要的那种像汽水一样的浓郁口感。

Forkling water wasn't giving everyone that full flavor, like, soda filling that they wanted.

Speaker 0

所以我们知道这些都是事实。

So we knew all of those things are the facts that we know.

Speaker 0

我们还知道,一旦我们推出产品,人们就开始在喝汽水的场合喝Poppi。

And what we knew is once we launched, people were starting to have this use occasion where they were drinking Poppi in the same use occasion as soda.

Speaker 0

所以随着时间推移,我们获得了更多的数据点。

And so it was we got more data points along the way.

Speaker 0

所以我坐在这里开玩笑说,我们是品牌驱动的。

So I sit here and joke with, like, we're a brand forward.

Speaker 0

其实我们在平台和流程方面也非常成熟,这让我们成为了一家非常强大的公司。

We're actually incredibly, you know, sophisticated in our platforms and our processes as well, which made us, I think, such a strong company.

Speaker 0

但后来我们确实学到了,哦,等等,这个使用场景。

But I do think then we learned, oh, wait, this occasion.

Speaker 0

好的。

Okay.

Speaker 0

所以在我们包装的正面,我们的标语曾经是‘蜜蜂快乐,蜜蜂健康’。

So on the front of our packaging, our tagline used to be Bee got happy, Bee got healthy.

Speaker 0

我们想,等等,人们其实没那么在意这个。

We're like, wait, people don't really care about that that much.

Speaker 0

我们把它改成了‘汽水回归,比以往更好’。

We changed it to soda's back better than ever.

Speaker 0

我们一直在不断调整和改变,因为消费者在变,使用场景在变,网上人们对我们的评价也在变,我们一直在倾听消费者的声音。

We were constantly tweaking and changing as the consumer was changing in the use occasion of what people were saying about us online, what we were listening to our consumers.

Speaker 0

所以,这就是我说的,建立一个好品牌,要专注于你知道的,你的北极星是什么,但你可以改变,你可以改变。

So and that's what I mean within building a good brand is focusing on what you know, what's your North Star, but then you can change you can change.

Speaker 0

顺便说一句,对创业者来说,改变真的很难。

And it's really hard for entrepreneurs to change, by the way.

Speaker 1

嘿。

Hey.

Speaker 1

我们快速休息一下。

Let's take a quick break.

Speaker 1

你有没有过这种感觉:策略定好了,简报写好了,大家也都对齐了,然后你发现还是得有人坐下来,真正把内容做出来?

You know that feeling when strategy is done, the brief is written, everyone's aligned, and you realize someone still has to sit down and actually create all the content?

Speaker 1

那个人通常就是你,而且明天就要交。

That someone is usually you, and it's due tomorrow.

Speaker 1

这时候,HubSpot的Breeze助手就能帮上忙。

Well, the Breeze assistant from HubSpot can help.

Speaker 1

它直接在HubSpot里面就能用。

It works right inside HubSpot.

Speaker 1

你可以起草活动文案、博客文章、邮件,全都用你的品牌语气,而且用的都是你真实的客户数据。

You can draft campaign copy, blog posts, emails, all in your brand voice, all using your actual customer data.

Speaker 1

所以你不仅仅是在创作内容。

So you don't create just content.

Speaker 1

你创作的是能转化的内容。

You create content that converts.

Speaker 1

去 hubspot.com 看看吧,那是为成长型企业打造的智能客户平台。

Check out hubspot.com, the agentic customer platform for growing businesses.

Speaker 2

我注意到,你有没有读过彼得·蒂尔的《从0到1》?

What I've noticed is that, like, have you read Peter Thiel's Zero to One?

Speaker 2

好的。

Okay.

Speaker 2

他用了整整一章或几章来讲各种模式,比如网络效应之类的。

So he he, like, has this whole chapter or chapters on, like, motes, and he's like, one mode is forget what he says, network effects, this or that.

Speaker 2

然后到了最后一章,他说还有一种模式,叫品牌。

And then he gets to the last chapter and he's like, there is one more mode, it's called brand.

Speaker 2

我知道这很重要。

I know it's important.

Speaker 2

而且我也知道我对这个不太了解,所以我不会去写它。

And I also know I don't know much about it, so I'm not gonna write about it.

Speaker 2

但如果你能搞明白,你会很厉害的。

But if you can figure it out, you're gonna be amazing.

Speaker 2

这挺有意思的,因为这是典型的硅谷思维,就是技术和产品排第一,其他像品牌这些就排第二。

And it's kind of funny because it's kind of a stereotypical Silicon Valley thing where it's like tech and product is number one, and like all the other stuff, like brand is number two.

Speaker 2

而Shaan喜欢喜剧演员,也喜欢创作过程。

And Shaan loves comedians and like the creative process.

Speaker 2

我们聊过关于敏感度的问题,就是你必须敏感才能找到好故事。

And we talk about this idea of being sensitive and how you have to be sensitive in order to find like good stories.

Speaker 2

你得有敏感度,才能看出什么能引起共鸣。

You gotta see like, you have to be sensitive when you see what resonates.

Speaker 2

关于品牌,我学到的一点是,虽然我不擅长,但我正在学,就是你确实需要非常敏感。

And something that I've learned about branding, and I'm not good at it, I'm trying to learn, is that you do have to be very sensitive.

Speaker 2

所以你在聊这些的时候,我注意到你做了很多细微的观察,或者感觉很小,就像你在一天里跟大概50个人聊天,比如在农贸市场什么的。

And so like, you're talking about these things, I've noticed, and you're making like very small observations, or they feel small, like you're talking to like, maybe let's say 50 people over the course of a day at a farmer's market or whatever.

Speaker 2

然后你发现,其实大家真正在意的是X、Y和Z。

And you're noticing like, actually people care about X, Y, and Z.

Speaker 2

而这些微小的变化,加上其他一些因素,似乎在某些情况下带来了巨大的成果。

And those small changes appear to have, in some, created this massive outcome along with a bunch of other stuff.

Speaker 2

我觉得这正是有趣的地方。

And I think that's what's interesting.

Speaker 2

是不是存在一个二八法则,就是说如果你专注于这几件事,就能产生显著的影响?

Is there like an eighty twenty rule where it's like, if you focus on these handful of things, it will make a meaningful difference?

Speaker 0

我觉得这又回到了我之前说过的一个点,就是关于尴尬的这种能力或特质。

I think it goes back to I've said this before, but it's this ability or this thing around embarrassment.

Speaker 0

我认为尴尬是在人生成功中,最被低估的情绪。

I think embarrassment is the most under explored emotion when it comes to being successful in life.

Speaker 0

很多人会对自己说,哦,我想在会议上提出这个想法,但万一听起来很蠢怎么办?

I think a lot of people say to themselves, like, oh, I wanna go push this idea in a meeting, but what if I sound stupid?

Speaker 0

或者我想创业,但万一没人关心怎么办?

Or I wanna start a business, but what if no one cares?

Speaker 0

我想拍个抖音,但万一我看起来很傻,别人会笑话我。

Well, I wanna make a TikTok, but what maybe I'll look ridiculous and, like, people will think rid of me.

Speaker 0

但我觉得,就像你说的,所有这些小瞬间,我听到的是,万一我成功了呢?

But I think with it, to your point of, like, all of these little moments, I hear, like, what if I am successful?

Speaker 0

万一我火了呢?

What if I am viral?

Speaker 0

我能从我的产品里学到什么?

What what what can I learn about my product?

Speaker 0

然后,好吧。

And then how how okay.

Speaker 0

你讨厌它。

You hate it.

Speaker 0

告诉我你为什么讨厌它。

Tell me why you hate it.

Speaker 0

好。

Okay.

Speaker 0

比如说,我们推出了一款根汁汽水口味。

Well, so like, for example, we had a flavor root beer that we launched.

Speaker 0

包装我们一直不太满意,因为我们公司整体风格很鲜艳,基本上就是彩虹色的各种颜色。

And packaging we'd never really loved because we were really bright company across, like, right basically, the rainbow effect of, like, all these colors.

Speaker 0

而根汁汽水是棕色的。

And we had root beer and was brown.

Speaker 0

我当时就想,哎呀,这可是经典汽水口味啊。

And I was like, ugh, the such a core soda flavor.

Speaker 0

然后我就想,好吧。

And so I was like, okay.

Speaker 0

我们得想办法解决这个问题。

We gotta figure out how to do this.

Speaker 0

消费者一直跟我们说味道很难喝。

And our consumers telling us it tasted horrible.

Speaker 0

我们就想,也许我们应该听听他们的意见。

And we were like, maybe we should listen to them.

Speaker 0

然后我们换了包装。

And we changed the packaging.

Speaker 0

我们把整个口味都改了。

We changed the entire flavor.

Speaker 0

然后我们还在网上把那些差评都发出来,直面这个问题。

And then we put out online all the bad comments and, like, confronted it.

Speaker 0

我们就说,嘿,是你们让我们这么做的,因为我们听了你们的意见。

And we're like, hey, you guys made us do this because we listened.

Speaker 0

我觉得很多人就是不愿意这么做,或者不愿意把自己暴露出来,或者承认自己错了。

And I think a lot of people just aren't willing to do that or, like, put themselves out there or acknowledge when they were wrong.

Speaker 0

这确实很难,因为创业者嘛,我们都有自尊心。

And it's it's hard because entrepreneurs, like, we have egos.

Speaker 0

就是不想做那些事。

Like, you don't wanna do those things.

Speaker 2

有没有哪本书或者什么资源,让你对品牌塑造的看法发生了改变?

Was there any book or resource that you read that changed your perspective when it came to branding?

Speaker 0

没有。

No.

Speaker 0

说个有趣的事。

So fun fact.

Speaker 0

帮帮我吧。

Help me.

Speaker 0

我有严重的阅读障碍。

I'm like severely dyslexic.

Speaker 0

你就算给我钱,我也读不了一本书。

I'm you could not like pay me to read a book.

Speaker 0

但我可以听书。

I'll listen to a book.

Speaker 0

我也会听播客。

I'll listen to a podcast.

Speaker 0

我特别沉迷于做这些。

I'm obsessed with doing that.

Speaker 0

但我觉得这挺搞笑的。

But I think it's so funny.

Speaker 0

我觉得有一种理论,说你必须读那些自助书,还得走上冥想之类的修行之路。

I think there's this like theory that you have to like read all these like self help books and you have to like be on this train of, like, meditation and all these things.

Speaker 0

我觉得那些全是扯淡。

Like, I think all of that is bullshit.

Speaker 0

反正我不是那样生活的。

Like, that's not how I live my life.

Speaker 0

我早上醒来,孩子就在那儿打我头,要iPad密码,我跟他说,我把iPad收走了。

I I I, like, wake up, you know, as my child's, like, hitting me in the head, asking for his iPad code and me being like, you, I took iPads away.

Speaker 0

你知道吗?

You know?

Speaker 0

我一边忙着弄咖啡,一边要把孩子送出门。

And I'm like trying to get coffee and my kids out the door.

Speaker 0

我真的没时间搞那些,因为我清楚自己是在听文化。

Like, I don't have time for that stuff because what I do know is I listen to culture.

Speaker 0

我之前说过,我们是跟着文化的节奏走的。

And I was saying that we moved at the speed of culture.

Speaker 0

社会上什么才是真正有文化影响力的?

What is culturally relevant in society?

Speaker 0

从社交媒体上的流行语,不只是流行语,还有大家都在聊什么?

From social speak to, not only social speak, but like what are people talking about?

Speaker 0

从表情包文化到社会上的那些文化大事件。

Meme culture to tent poles within society that are culture relevant.

Speaker 0

所以你看日历,科切拉音乐节是个大事件,格莱美也是,你怎么才能脱颖而出?

So you look at the calendar, Coachella's a a tent pole, Grammys, how do you break through?

Speaker 0

汉普顿是个热门地点。

Hamptons is a hotspot.

Speaker 0

对吧?

Right?

Speaker 0

夏天的时候,那些名人都在那儿。

The peoples that are at during the summer.

Speaker 0

对我来说,品牌和文化紧密相连,这正是我痴迷的地方。

So for me, was like with brands, it's so tied to culture, and that was my obsession.

Speaker 0

我和我的团队都痴迷于此,我们招人时特别看重年轻人。

And in my team's obsession, we hire people really young.

Speaker 0

我们喜欢招那些聪明、正活在文化当下的Z世代,而且我们信任他们,我觉得这对有些人来说挺难的。

We love to hire Gen Z smart people that are living the moment within culture, and we trust them, which is also hard for, I think, some people to do.

Speaker 1

你给我们发了一份点子清单,因为我们喜欢和其他创始人一起头脑风暴。

You you sent us a list of ideas because we one thing we like to do is we like to brainstorm with other founders.

Speaker 1

能和一个打造了数十亿美元消费品品牌的人坐下来聊聊,我们真是太幸运了,就像说,嘿。

And how lucky are we that we get to sit with somebody who's built a multibillion dollar CPG brand and be like, hey.

Speaker 1

还有什么有意思的想法?

What else is interesting?

Speaker 1

也许你们现在在做新东西,但有些你们不会做、不打算做的,但你觉得,嘿。

Maybe some maybe, you you know, you guys are doing a new thing now, but something you won't do, something you don't plan to do, but you think, hey.

Speaker 1

那里有机会,因为一旦你开始成功,你就会看到邻近领域里各种机会,但你永远没有时间和精力去抓住它们。

There's an opportunity there because once you start to win, you see all kinds of opportunities in adjacent spaces that you're never gonna have the time or energy to go do.

Speaker 1

你心里在想什么?

What what's on your mind?

Speaker 1

你觉得有哪些机会、空白领域,或者像你这样的人——或者说年轻时的你——可以去攻克的?

What do you see as opportunities, white spaces, things that you're you think, you know, somebody like you could go you know, the younger version of you could go and attack.

Speaker 0

你知道吗,我一直很喜欢这类问题,比如你接下来能做什么或者想做什么。

You know, I always love this type of question of, like, what could you do or what do you wanna do next?

Speaker 0

或者,什么是最热门的?

Or, like, what's the hottest thing?

Speaker 0

Poppi 的妙处就在于,我们比别人先想明白了。

The beauty of Poppi is we figured it out before everybody else.

Speaker 0

比如说,现在蛋白质特别火。

So for example, protein is so hot right now.

Speaker 0

每个人都在想办法把蛋白质加到各种产品里,从冰淇淋到饮料,还有你看大卫做的蛋白棒什么的。

Everyone's trying to figure out how to put protein in from ice cream to drinks to, you know, you see what what David is doing with the protein bar and all of this.

Speaker 0

而且这确实非常热门。

And it is really hot.

Speaker 0

但对我来说,我就觉得,好吧,行。

But for me, I'm like, okay, cool.

Speaker 0

如果某个东西火了,我不会现在冲进去做。

If it gets hot, I'm not gonna now go create it.

Speaker 0

已经有人抢先占领市场了。

Someone is already first to market on that.

Speaker 0

而且通常,赢家都是第一个或第二个进入市场的。

And usually, winners are the first to second to market.

Speaker 0

第三个进入市场的人真的很难成功,除非你做得不一样。

It's really hard for, like, even a third to market to be successful unless you do it different.

Speaker 0

就像AG1那阵风潮,绿色健康饮品那阵风潮。

So you take, like, the AG one craze, the the green craze.

Speaker 0

对吧?

Right?

Speaker 0

我不知道你们还记不记得。

I don't if you guys remember.

Speaker 0

大概六年前吧,我们被三百条AG one的广告轰炸。

Maybe it was, like, six years ago we were getting hit with, 300 AG one ads.

Speaker 1

你知道我在说什么吗?

You know what I'm talking about?

Speaker 1

对。

Yeah.

Speaker 1

那时候播客简直就是一个超长的AG one广告,一直播个不停。

Well Pod podcasting was just an age a one long continuous AG one ad for a while.

Speaker 2

对。

Yeah.

Speaker 2

一开始是D's,后来就变成了Athletic Greens。

It started with me on D's, and then it went to Athletic Greens.

Speaker 0

Athletic,对。

Athletic yeah.

Speaker 0

然后你就会想,天哪。

And you're just like, oh my gosh.

Speaker 0

到处都是。

It's everywhere.

Speaker 0

但我其实觉得他们没能创新,你知道吧,然后Gruens出现了,用软糖做到了,然后他们就退出了。

But I actually feel like they failed to, like, innovate, you know, then Gruens comes along and does it in the gummies and they exit.

Speaker 0

AG到现在还没退出。

AG still has not exited.

Speaker 0

所以我不是说晚入场就不能赢。

So I I'm not here to say you can't be late to the game and still win.

Speaker 0

只是难度大得多。

It's just way harder.

Speaker 0

而且如果你想成功,几乎必须做得更好、更聪明、更不一样。

And you almost have to do it better, smarter, and different if you wanna be successful.

Speaker 0

所以对我来说,蛋白粉很热门。

So for me, think protein's hot.

Speaker 0

祝你好运,能突破市场。

Good luck breaking through the market.

Speaker 0

现在市场竞争非常激烈。

It's very crowded right now.

Speaker 0

我觉得大家也都在琢磨肌酸这股热潮,还有那个口香糖。

I think everyone is also trying to figure out the creatine craze, the gum.

Speaker 0

你是做成粉剂吗?

Do you put in a powder?

Speaker 0

还是做成口香糖?

Do put gum?

Speaker 0

怎么让女性也接受呢?

How do we get women on it?

Speaker 0

对吧?

Right?

Speaker 0

大家都在讨论这些,但感觉你几乎得是第一个做肌酸软糖的才行。

Everyone's talking about these things, but it's almost like you need to have been the first creatine gummy.

Speaker 0

所以我不是说我知道接下来会怎样,我只知道我又要开一家新公司了,但具体是什么还不能告诉你们。

So I'm not here to say, like, I don't even know what's next other than I am starting another company, and I can't tell you guys what it is.

Speaker 0

而且我确实觉得这就是下一个风口。

And I do think it's what's next.

Speaker 0

所以对我来说,很难去谈论它。

So it's hard for me to, like, speak to it.

Speaker 1

那换个问题问吧。

Well, maybe a different question on that.

Speaker 1

好。

Okay.

Speaker 1

我们可以先保密,但跟我们说说你的想法吧。

We can keep it a mystery, but tell us your mindset on it.

Speaker 1

你是想再来一次吗?

So are you like, I wanna run it back.

Speaker 1

我知道很多了。

I know so much.

Speaker 1

我打算做类似类型的生意。

I'm gonna go kinda same same genre of business.

Speaker 1

或者,你知道,有时候人们会说,天哪。

Or, you know, sometimes people are like, oh my god.

Speaker 1

那件事留下了太多伤疤。

So much scar tissue from that.

Speaker 1

现在我想去做房地产。

Now I wanna go do real estate.

Speaker 1

我想去做点完全不同的东西。

Wanna I go do something so different over here.

Speaker 1

你是怎么想的?

How are you just thinking about it?

Speaker 1

因为我觉得每个企业家在第二次创业、第三次创业的时候,他们都可以自己决定。

Because I think every entrepreneur on their second act, their third act, they get to decide.

Speaker 0

所以疯狂的是,显然,我们退出了公司,然后百事给了所有Poppi员工工作。

So what's crazy is, obviously, we exited the company, and then Pepsi gave everybody jobs that were Poppi employees.

Speaker 0

但你卖掉公司后,他们不会说,嘿,这是你的员工证。

But you don't sell your company then they're like, hey, here's your employee badge.

Speaker 0

所以我和史蒂文留下来当顾问。

So me and Steven stayed on as advisors.

Speaker 0

但作为纳瓦雷,你得从日常业务中退一步,我仍然很喜欢Poppi,也为那里发生的一切感到高兴。

But as a Navarre, you have to take a step back from the day to day of the business and I still like adore Poppi and I'm just so happy for everything that's happening there.

Speaker 0

但我手头的时间多了很多。

But I had a lot more time on my hands.

Speaker 0

而且我这个人特别较真。

And I'm just really intense.

Speaker 0

我特别亢奋。

I'm I'm really hyper.

Speaker 0

我喜欢混乱。

I love chaos.

Speaker 0

然后我们大概过了六个月。

And we went, like, six months.

Speaker 0

我打了高尔夫,还去度了假。

I played golf, and, like, we went on vacation.

Speaker 0

我就陪陪孩子。

I, like, hung out with my kids.

Speaker 0

然后突然就有一种感觉,就是哎,等等。

And it was just this whole thing where you're just like, oh, wait.

Speaker 0

我想念团队了。

I missed the team.

Speaker 0

我想念一起搞项目的那种状态。

I missed the build.

Speaker 0

所以我们一直都知道,这里面还有别的东西。

So we always knew, like, we had something else in it.

Speaker 0

不过我确实觉得,就像你说的,不管我们接下来做什么,成功都很重要。我希望那是因为我真心热爱、而且是个好主意才去做的,而不是为了重复过去。

But I I do think to your point, it's very important to, like, whatever we do next, I want it to be successful and it to be something I do because I love it and it's a good idea, not just to do it again.

Speaker 0

所以我们就想到了一个特别好的点子。

So with it, we came up with, like, a really good idea.

Speaker 0

那是一个源于我个人需求的项目,我觉得很多好点子都是这样来的。

It was another, like, personal need where I think a lot of good ideas come from personal needs.

Speaker 0

对吧?

Right?

Speaker 0

那种发自内心的热情,而不是我看了数据,发现市场有空白,机会就在这里,然后你就觉得,哎,真无聊。

That passion within versus I read the data and there's a gap in the market and the white space is this and you're like, ugh, boring.

Speaker 0

所以对我来说,这非常个人化,而且市场也很大。

So for me, it was very personal and it's also mass.

Speaker 0

我觉得很多人创业的时候。

So I think a lot of people was starting a company.

Speaker 0

他们想做得太细分了,苹果醋母饮料就非常细分。

They try to get a little bit too niche and apple cider vinegar mother beverage was really niche.

Speaker 0

这是个很好的例子。

That's a great example.

Speaker 0

那是给那些,你知道,我奶奶告诉我要喝这个,或者,对,那确实对我的胃有帮助的人。

It was for people that, you know, my grandma told me I should drink that or like, yeah, that does help my tummy.

Speaker 0

但一旦我们把同样的液体换了个定位,把消费场景和场合改成汽水,它就火了。

But the second we switched basically this exact same liquid over, we changed positioning and the knee state and the occasion to soda, it blew up.

Speaker 0

所以我觉得,不管我们做什么,都会面向大众,真正满足所有人群的需求,同时也会特别关注某个创意人群。

And so I think that whatever we do will be mass and really cater to all demographics while honing in on a particular creative demographic.

Speaker 2

好的,没问题。

What's okay.

Speaker 2

我们之前提前问过你这个话题,你写了一个词,我经常看到。

So we asked you for some like we we asked you about this topic in advance, and you wrote down a word that I keep seeing.

Speaker 2

我不太确定它是什么意思,但你说的是淋巴按摩。

I don't entirely know what it means, but you said lymphatic massage.

Speaker 2

我在Instagram上关注了一个人,他每天早上四点半都会发视频,做淋巴引流,还跳来跳去的。

I follow a guy on Instagram, and every morning at 04:30, he posts these videos of him doing lip lymphatic Dude, jumping.

Speaker 1

你关注了一个人?

You you follow a guy.

Speaker 1

我确实在做这个。

I I'm doing this.

Speaker 1

我躺在那儿,腿靠在墙上。

I'm laying there with my legs on the wall.

Speaker 1

对。

Yep.

Speaker 1

是的。

Yeah.

Speaker 1

跟我说说淋巴按摩吧。

I'm Tell me about lipotic.

Speaker 1

我就想,这到底有没有用啊。

I'm like, I don't know if this does anything.

Speaker 1

有人跟我说

Somebody told

Speaker 2

这个词我老是看到。

me The is the word I keep seeing.

Speaker 1

他们说,刚开始你可能会有点不舒服,但那就说明有效果,这真是最经典的营销话术。

They go, you might feel a little sick at first, but that's how you know it's working, which is the ultimate marketing sales pitch.

Speaker 1

就像,你想变得更健康。

It's like, you want trying to get healthier.

Speaker 1

你一开始可能会觉得有点不舒服。

You might feel you might feel sick at first.

Speaker 1

这说明这东西效果有多强。

That's how powerful this is.

Speaker 0

你知道吗?

You know?

Speaker 0

我自己从来没觉得不舒服,但实际情况是,我在Poppi工作了十年。

And I've never been sick from it, but is what happened is, you know, I worked for ten years at Poppi.

Speaker 0

我觉得,我也就去过医生那儿一次。

I think, too, I went to the doctor, like, once.

Speaker 0

你知道,你就一直处于那种拼命工作的状态。

You know, you're just, on this build mode.

Speaker 0

但我就想,哦,等等。

But I was like, oh, wait.

Speaker 0

好吧。

Okay.

Speaker 0

我得在健康方面好好整理一下自己的生活了。

I need to like get my life together on like the wellness front.

Speaker 0

然后我开始做各种事情,找长寿医生,做各种功能健康检查,拿到一堆数据后,你会想,这些数据我该怎么用呢?

And I started doing all sorts of things, doing longevity doctors and, you know, getting all the the function health and like under and then you get all this data and you're like, well, what do I do with this?

Speaker 0

所以对我来说,我最近刚做了一次手术,就是那种产后修复全套。

And so for me, I just recently had a surgery with the whole mommy makeover.

Speaker 0

我做了腹部整形,现在感觉生活美滋滋的。

I had, a tummy tuck, and I'm, like, living my best life.

Speaker 0

医生说最重要的事情就是做淋巴按摩。

And the doctor's, like, the number one thing you can do is lymphatic massage.

Speaker 0

手术后我开始每周做三次。

I started doing it after surgery three times a week.

Speaker 0

现在我还是每周做两次。

I still do it twice a week.

Speaker 2

但淋巴是什么?

But what's like lymph?

Speaker 2

那是身体的一个部位吗?

Is that a body plan?

Speaker 2

我完全不知道。

Don't even know.

Speaker 0

淋巴系统。

Lymphatic.

Speaker 0

它是帮助排出体内所有毒素、把废物清出身体的系统。

It's the system that helps flush out all the toxins and get everything out of your system.

Speaker 0

所以淋巴按摩的原理就是,通过缓慢地推动这些液体流向淋巴系统,达到排毒和冲刷身体的效果。

And so the idea behind lymphatic massage is you are slowly working those fluids to your lymphatic system for detox and flush you.

Speaker 0

这样你会感觉更轻盈,不会那么胀,精力也更充沛。

So you feel lighter, you feel, you know, not as bloated, more energy.

Speaker 0

就是把那些不好的东西都排出体外。

You're just getting like all of that bad stuff out of your system.

Speaker 2

但如果按从玄乎到科学来打分,玄乎就是完全没依据,当然这不是贬义,你觉得它算哪一档?

But like on a scale woo woo to proven, with woo woo being totally fine, that's not an insult, where does it rank?

Speaker 2

就是,它在这个范围里吗?

Like, is it on that spectrum?

Speaker 0

我觉得它背后并没有很多科学依据。

I don't think that it's something that there's like a lot of science behind it by any means.

Speaker 0

就我个人而言,我一直觉得别人的推荐总是更好的。

For me personally, I always think like personal recommendations are always better.

Speaker 0

对我来说,它真的改变了我的生活。比如说,你跑马拉松,我儿子要跑纽约市马拉松,他膝盖一直疼。

It's like it's been life changing for me through I mean, there's like say you're like running a marathon, like, son's running the New York City Marathon, and he's been having knee pain.

Speaker 0

我就说,哦,去做淋巴按摩吧。

I was like, oh, get lymphatic massage.

Speaker 0

然后他做了三个星期,他说,天哪。

And he was like, for three weeks, he was like, oh my gosh.

Speaker 0

我的疼痛消失了。

Like, my pain is gone.

Speaker 0

所以它真的能帮助缓解酸痛,把身体里堆积的那些东西都排出去。

And so it just helps the soreness, just all that stuff built up in your body, it gets it out.

Speaker 0

所以我建议你也去试试。

So I challenge you to go do it.

Speaker 0

这个领域里最厉害的人之一,其实源自巴西的淋巴按摩。

And one of the best people in the space, it's it's really comes from Brazilian lymphatic massage.

Speaker 0

这在巴西非常流行。

So this is really big in Brazil.

Speaker 0

她叫乔西。

Her name is Josie.

Speaker 0

她住在奥斯汀,服务过从麦莉·赛勒斯到凯蒂·佩里等众多明星。

And she lives here in Austin, and she's like does all of the stars from Miley Cyrus to Katy Perry to all these people.

Speaker 0

所以,去试试看吧。

So, like, test this out.

Speaker 0

可能对你不一定有效。

Might not work for you.

Speaker 1

山姆,直接去水疗中心,说要巴西式按摩,看看会怎么样。

Sam, just go to the spa and ask for a Brazilian and see what happens.

Speaker 1

我觉得,我觉得那应该行。

I think I think that'll work.

Speaker 2

对。

Yeah.

Speaker 2

我不知道是不是

I don't know if

Speaker 1

那个原因。

it's that.

Speaker 1

你刚才提到你不能公布你的公司,那我们可以猜吗?

So you talked about you're you're you can't announce your company, but can we guess?

Speaker 1

我们能不能一年内随便猜五次?

Can we just take five blind guesses in a year?

Speaker 1

我们回来看看有没有猜对?

We just come back and see if we we had it right?

Speaker 0

当然可以。

Sure.

Speaker 0

我的意思是,我不会说什么的。

I mean, I won't say anything.

Speaker 1

你不需要确认或否认。

You you don't have to confirm or deny.

Speaker 1

你只需要说,这很有趣。

You could just say, that's interesting.

Speaker 1

我在想你会进入哪个领域。

I'm just thinking I'm I'm thinking where you go into.

Speaker 1

让我问你一个问题。

Let me ask you one question.

Speaker 1

我们请过埃里克·瑞安来上节目。

We had Eric Ryan come on.

Speaker 1

他创立了Ollie软糖、Method肥皂,还有一堆Welly创可贴。

He created Ollie gummies and Method soap and a bunch of welly Band Aids.

Speaker 1

他说过一句很棒的话:我走过货架,寻找一片相同的海洋。

And he had this great line where he goes, I walk through the aisles, and I look at I look for a sea of sameness.

Speaker 1

所以基本上,我就是在找那些死气沉沉的品类,货架上看起来都一模一样,我想进去做出点不一样的东西。

So, basically, I'm looking for these sleepy categories where everything looks the same in the aisle, and I wanna come and be different.

Speaker 1

他说就连那个软糖品牌,他也是觉得,所有的维生素看起来都一样。

And he said even with the gummy brand, he was like, all of the vitamins look the same.

Speaker 1

都是圆罐子。

They were all round jars.

Speaker 1

他说,所以我一眼就知道,第一个想法,好,我们做成方形的罐子。

He's like, so I just knew right away, first note, okay, we're doing it like a rectangular jar.

Speaker 1

他说,这样更好吗?

He's like, it's is it better?

Speaker 1

不。

No.

Speaker 1

但完全不一样了。

But it's completely different.

Speaker 1

所以,就是更好。

So, like, it's better.

Speaker 1

所以就是这样。

They're therefore.

Speaker 1

你也有类似的做法吗?

Do you have a similar approach?

Speaker 1

你是不是也会去找那种没什么人关注的品类,或者看起来都差不多的货架?

Do you kinda walk looking for sort of sleepy aisles or a sea of sameness?

Speaker 1

这是你的一个判断标准吗,还是说不是?

Is that is that a heuristic for you or no?

Speaker 1

你会考虑其他方面吗?

You think about other things?

Speaker 0

不会。

No.

Speaker 0

对我来说,是出于个人需求。

For me, it's personal need.

Speaker 0

所以我觉得,现在有一波新的趋势,就是GLP-1这类产品,很多人还没注意到,也没去迎合这个市场,还以为这股风潮会过去。

So it's like, I think there's this whole new wave of this, like, GLP one era that people are sleeping on and not catering to and thinking that it's gonna go away.

Speaker 0

所以我靠GLP-1减了60磅。

And so I lost 60 pounds on GLP ones.

Speaker 0

这真的彻底改变了我的生活。

It's absolutely changed my life.

Speaker 0

而且,当时就是有个人的需求在那里。

And that, like, there was just, like, a personal need there.

Speaker 0

而且我觉得,这事儿也没那么复杂。

And and I think that people it's not that deep either.

Speaker 0

我觉得最好的品牌和最好的企业,也就是比现有标准好10%到15%。

I think that we make the best brands and the best businesses are 10 to 15% better than the established norm.

Speaker 0

不是那些小众产品,就像我说的。

It's not the niche products, like I said.

Speaker 1

你能解释一下吗?

Can you explain that?

Speaker 1

因为我在旧金山经常听到的是,你必须好上10倍,这好像是大家常说的。

Because what what I hear all the time in San Francisco is the you gotta be 10 times better is the kind of like the thing.

Speaker 1

这谁能反驳呢?

And and who could argue with that?

Speaker 1

干脆说好一百倍得了。

Hell, might as well say a 100 times better.

Speaker 1

对吧?

Right?

Speaker 1

谁不想要那样呢?

Like, you know, who doesn't want that?

Speaker 1

但你说的是有点不一样的东西。

But you have a you're saying something a little bit different.

Speaker 1

你说的是,其实一个小小的角度差异,10%到15%,就足够了。

You're saying, actually, a small kinda angle difference, 10 to 15%, can be enough.

Speaker 1

你能解释一下吗?

Can you explain that?

Speaker 0

我觉得,特别是食品饮料或者美妆产品,就是那种硬核的消费品,我只能说这个,因为这是我熟悉的领域。

I think with, like, food and beverage in particular or beauty products, like hardcore CPG, I can only speak to that because that's what I know.

Speaker 0

我觉得在这个领域确实是这样,就拿汽水来说吧。

And I think it's true for in that space in the way of take soda, for example.

Speaker 0

大家都是喝着汽水长大的。

Everyone grew up on soda.

Speaker 0

通常你一提到汽水,就会想起一些回忆,比如看电影、深夜和家人在一起、汉堡配汽水。

And usually when you say the word soda, you have a memory, like movies, late night with family, burger and a soda.

Speaker 0

它会唤起情感,因为那种怀旧感根深蒂固,是你从小伴随的东西。

It invokes emotion because there's that long ingrained nostalgia, something you grew up with.

Speaker 0

所以每个营销人员的目标就是,怎么让消费者把购买决策从理性转到感性?

So every marketer's goal is how do you get the consumer and you move the buying power from the head to the heart?

Speaker 0

让他们和你的品牌产生情感连接。

They're emotionally connected with your brand.

Speaker 0

这就是品牌建设一直想做的事情。

That's what you always wanna do with brand building.

Speaker 0

怎么让人对你的品牌着迷呢?

How do you get someone who's obsessed?

Speaker 0

所以你要触动情感,把人们从小喝到大的东西做得更好一点。

So you tap into emotion and you make something that they grew up with just a little bit better.

Speaker 0

对吧?

Right?

Speaker 0

这就是我们在Poppi做的事情。

That's what we did at Poppi.

Speaker 0

我们有可乐。

We have Cola.

Speaker 0

我们有根汁啤酒。

We have root beer.

Speaker 0

我们有奶油苏打。

We have cream soda.

Speaker 0

我们有所有这些人们从小喝到大的口味,而我们只是做得更好。

We have all of these flavors that people grew up, and we're just we're better.

Speaker 0

对吧?

Right?

Speaker 0

所以我们不会说,嘿,我们是Poppi。

And so instead of being like, hey, we're Poppi.

Speaker 0

我们还有南非醉茄和狮鬃菇,还有38种没人真正关心的成分,而是说,嘿,我们要把糖分减少89%。

We also have ashwagandha and lion's mane, and we have 38 other ingredients that nobody actually cares about versus, hey, we're gonna make this 89% less sugar.

Speaker 0

你还能尝到从小熟悉的味道,而且我们确实做到了。

You're gonna get all the same flavors you grew up with, and we're really yeah.

Speaker 0

当然。

Sure.

Speaker 0

我们有益生元产品。

We have pre products.

Speaker 0

我们不会过多谈论这个。

We're not gonna talk about it that much.

Speaker 0

这就是我说的,好10%到15%。

And that's what I mean, that 10 to 15% better.

Speaker 2

顺便说一句,当益生元或益生菌的宣传稍微变一下的时候,我开始喝Poppi喝得更多了。

By the way, I started drinking Poppi so much more when the pre buy or probiotic messaging was a little bit different.

Speaker 2

以前我在Royal Blue杂货店看到它的时候,我就在想,这算是健康饮料吗?

Before when I used to see I used to see it at Royal Blue grocery store, and I was like, is this supposed to be like a health a health drink?

Speaker 2

我当时就想,这到底是什么?

I was like, what is this?

Speaker 0

然后我们经历了一个演变,从“蜜蜂开心,但变得健康”到“汽水”。

And there was an evolution of that Bee got happy, but get healthy to soda.

Speaker 0

我们发现人们其实并不在乎这些。

We we found people didn't care.

Speaker 0

然后你会觉得,这就是个完美的例子。

And you're like, that's a perfect example.

Speaker 0

这是我们从消费者那里得到的反馈。

And we got that from the consumer.

Speaker 0

所以我们开始专注于消费者的体验,我们希望有人拿起罐子时会说,这太可爱了。

And so we just started leaning into our consumer journey was we wanted someone to pick up the can and say, this is so cute.

Speaker 0

我们希望他们喝一口后,会惊叹,天哪。

We wanted them to drink and be like, holy crap.

Speaker 0

这个味道太棒了。

This tastes amazing.

Speaker 0

然后翻过来一看,哇,这个对我也这么好。

And then to flip it over and be like, wait, this is so good for me too.

Speaker 0

这是有意为之的,而且比起那些小众的健康消费者,这条路走起来更容易。

And it was intentional, and it's an easier journey in versus that niche health consumer.

Speaker 2

你列的那个叫Nello的东西是什么?

What's this thing that you listed called Nello?

Speaker 0

哦,Nello。

Oh, Nello.

Speaker 0

它们真的很好。

They're so good.

Speaker 0

所以镁,我觉得所有跟睡眠健康相关的都很重要。

So magnesium, anything I think all around sleep health is really important as well.

Speaker 0

我觉得如果你压力大,或者今天过得很糟,或者你想对员工、朋友或同事发火,你只会想,唉,没有什么是一夜好觉解决不了的。

I think I would say if you're stressed out or having a bad day or you wanna blow up on an employee or your friend or your coworker and you're just like, ugh, nothing a good night's sleep can't cure.

Speaker 2

那Nello到底是什么?

But what is Nello?

Speaker 0

Nello是一种粉末,属于镇静安神类的产品。

Nello is a powder within the calming space.

Speaker 0

它含有镁。

So it's magnesium.

Speaker 0

有很多研究表明镁有助于睡眠。

And there's a lot of studies around magnesium and helping you sleep.

Speaker 0

另外,我还特别喜欢我的Orion睡眠系统。

We're also I'm obsessed with, like, my Orion sleep system.

Speaker 0

不知道你有没有见过这些,就是那种

I don't know if you've seen these, but, like

Speaker 1

那是什么?

What's that?

Speaker 1

那是什么?

What's that?

Speaker 0

晚上调节温度。

Temperature at night.

Speaker 0

所以,我这边床的温度和史蒂文那边不一样,这样你就能睡好。

And so like, my side of the bed is different than Steven's side of the bed, and you can sleep.

Speaker 0

然后它会整晚自动调节,并追踪你的体温,这样你就不用担心那些半夜醒来发现自己出汗或者冷得发抖的情况了。

And then it auto changes throughout the night and tracks your temperature so that, you know, like those nights where you like wake up and you're like sweating or you're freezing?

Speaker 0

它会在那之前就监测到,所以能让你保持在快速眼动睡眠阶段。

It tracks that before it So it keeps you in REM.

Speaker 0

让你一直处于深度睡眠状态。

It keeps you in your deep sleep state.

Speaker 0

所以我觉得所有这些助眠粉啊,这些能让你睡得更好的东西,对我来说真的是改变游戏规则。

And so it's all of these things that I feel like these calming powders, all of these things to bring you more sleep has been like a game changer for me personally.

Speaker 0

而且它们现在特别火。

And they're blowing up.

Speaker 0

到处都能看到。

They're everywhere.

Speaker 0

他们做得太火了。

They're killing it.

Speaker 2

除了这些,你还在玩哪些小玩意儿或者饮品?比如,作为健康消费者或者关心最新潮流的商界女性,你还会对什么特别着迷?

What are some other little gadgets or drinks like that that you're playing around with or you're, like, you know, nerding out even as as a health consumer or, like, a businesswoman who, like, cares about seeing the latest and greatest?

Speaker 0

我觉得另一个我家里买的大件是Preston Lane的清洁产品。

I think another big movement that I purchased for my household is called Preston Lane cleaning products.

Speaker 0

而且它很干净。

And it's clean.

Speaker 0

就是,成分很干净。

Like, the ingredients are clean.

Speaker 0

所以你在孩子所在的桌子上喷这个,而其他那些产品里都含有各种刺激性的化学物质。

So you're spraying it on your table where your kids are, and you have all these other ones with all these, like, harsh, harsh chemicals in it.

Speaker 0

我把整个家都换成了Preston Lane,不仅闻起来超好闻,成分安全,他们还做蜡烛和洗洁精。

Well, I switched whole household over to Preston Lane, and not only does it smell amazing, the ingredients are safe, but they also make, like, candles and they make dish soap.

Speaker 0

而且这些东西放在家里看起来也很美观,很搭配,不像那种老式的Clorox瓶子。

And so it all also looks really aesthetically pleasing in your house and it matches versus you have that old school, like, Clorox bottle.

Speaker 0

对吧?

Right?

Speaker 0

你会想,哎呀,这些东西怎么藏起来?

You're like, oh, how do I hide all this?

Speaker 0

还有那个Dawn洗洁精。

Or the Dawn soap.

Speaker 0

怎么把这些都藏到柜子底下?

How do I hide all this under the cabinet?

Speaker 0

而且他们在喷雾上也做得很好。

And they've done a really good job also with the spray.

Speaker 0

它有香味,所以家里同时闻起来很香,不像那个柠檬味的清洁剂。

It's a scent so that, like, your house smells good at the same time versus that lemon pledge.

Speaker 2

这难道不跟你之前说的有点矛盾吗?你说蛋白质已经过时了,所以会更有挑战性。

Doesn't that sort of go against one of the points you made about, like, how protein is played out, and so it's gonna be a lot more challenging?

Speaker 2

因为当我想到,比如,更干净的,更好的,对,就像……

Because when I thought about, like, clean Better for like yeah.

Speaker 2

比如说,那些更环保的肥皂或者高乐氏之类的。

Like, better for you, like, soaps or Clorox or whatever.

Speaker 2

我本来以为会有一个叫蓝蓝的,我忘了它叫什么了。

I would have thought that there's one called, like, blue blue I forget what it's called.

Speaker 2

蓝什么来着?

Blue something?

Speaker 2

蓝地。

Blue Land.

Speaker 0

对。

Yeah.

Speaker 0

蓝地。

Blue Land.

Speaker 2

对。

Yeah.

Speaker 2

就像,然后还有,你知道,我们刚才聊到埃里克·瑞安。

Like, it's and and then there's, like, you know, we just talked about Eric Ryan.

Speaker 2

他的理念就是怎么设计一个瓶子,让你觉得它很酷或者很好看,愿意放在台面上而不是藏起来。

His whole thing was how do I create a bottle so, like, cool or pretty that you'd keep it on your countertop instead of hiding it away.

Speaker 2

但看起来还是有一些很酷的新兴品牌因为这个而冒出来。

But it seems like there's still, like, some pretty cool emerging brands that are popping up because of that.

Speaker 0

对。

Yeah.

Speaker 0

我觉得Blue Land是个很了不起的品牌。

I think Blue Land is an incredible brand.

Speaker 0

他们更关注的是怎么减少塑料的使用。

It's more around, like, how do they reduce plastic in their receivable

Speaker 2

哦,明白了。

Oh, got it.

Speaker 0

投入进去。

Putting in.

Speaker 0

所以他们是在为海洋环保出力,而且做得非常好。

So they're, like, taking on the oceans and they're killing it.

Speaker 0

所以这完全是另一种使用场景,就是想要成分干净、让家里闻起来好闻,而且放在台面上看起来又好看的产品。

So that's a whole other use occasion where it's like, I want clean ingredients that make my house smell good that look cute on my counter.

Speaker 0

当然。

Sure.

Speaker 0

你可能会说像Method那样的品牌,但我还是觉得它们不够好看。

You could argue maybe like a method, but I still don't think they're that cute.

Speaker 0

它们看起来不像高端品牌,比如Ralph Lauren、Tom Ford那种风格,但我觉得Preston Lane就做到了。

They look they're not like high end, Ralph Lauren, Tom Ford type look, whereas I think Preston Lane is.

Speaker 0

而且价格也很实惠。

So and it's an affordable price.

Speaker 2

它们现在肯定不是了。

So They're definitely not anymore.

Speaker 2

我记得它刚出来的时候,真的很棒。

Like, I remember when it came out originally, it was awesome.

Speaker 2

现在嘛,确实有点过时了,你知道,大概有20年了吧。

Now it's like it is definitely it's it's old You know, it's probably like 20 years old.

Speaker 0

确实是这样。

It is.

Speaker 0

所以我觉得每个品类里还是有创新的,他们只是比其他人做得好10%到15%。

And so I think that there's still innovation within categories, and they're doing it just 10 to 15% better.

Speaker 0

对吧?

Right?

Speaker 0

而且如果你仔细看,现在这个领域里真的没有别人在做这件事,而且他们还挺新的。

And if you really look at it, no one else is really doing it in this space right now, and they're pretty new.

Speaker 2

肖恩,你猜她接下来要做什么,猜得还挺准的。

That's kind of a good guess, Shaan, for what she's gonna do next.

Speaker 2

我觉得清洁用品是某个歌手会做的。

I I think cleaning supplies is someone who's a singer.

Speaker 1

清洁用品是一个猜测。

Cleaning is one guess.

Speaker 1

我觉得,像牙膏、口腔护理之类的东西。

I think, like, something like toothpaste, oral care, stuff like that.

Speaker 1

我是说,她提到GLP-1那件事,可能就是在暗示我们,这背后有一个完整的生态,比如,嘿。

I mean, she kinda said the GLP one thing maybe kinda gave us the hint there of, like, there's a whole, like, ecosystem of, hey.

Speaker 1

如果一亿美国人都在服用GLP-1,他们去商店时,有产品能帮助他们支持、增强或减少副作用,那显然是一个超级巨大的市场,而现有的产品根本没法满足这个需求。

If a 100,000,000 Americans are gonna be taking GLP ones and they go to the store and there's a product they can buy to, like, support, boost, or minimize downsides, obviously, that's like a mega mega market that's getting created that today like, the incumbent products just don't speak to.

Speaker 1

即使它们有帮助,它们也没有被定位成那种助手,那种在你服用GLP-1时的伙伴。

Even if they could help, they don't they're not, like, positioned to be that that assistant, the wingman for you if you're on GLP one.

Speaker 1

所以我确实考虑过这个。

So I've definitely I've thought about that.

Speaker 1

听起来她也在考虑这个。

I it sounds like she she's thinking about that.

Speaker 1

我觉得这是一个巨大的品类。

I I think that's a huge category.

Speaker 0

这些都是很棒的想法,我等不及你们在秋天揭晓答案了。

All these things are great, and I can't wait for you guys to find out in the fall.

Speaker 0

但你们还没猜对,所以敬请期待。

But you haven't guessed it yet, so stay tuned.

Speaker 1

好的。

Okay.

Speaker 1

这个激动人心的播客,我们就是简单地猜一些嘉宾不能说的东西。

The thrilling podcast where we just simply guess things that the guest can't

Speaker 0

我真的,我跟你说。

I really I'm telling

Speaker 1

那跟我们聊聊赚钱的事吧。

well, tell us about making money.

Speaker 1

因为我喜欢你的一点是,你不是那种,至少你给人的感觉不是那种,明明做生意却假装不在乎钱的人。

Because one thing I like about you is you're not one of these people who's just kind of like at least you don't come across this way where you, like, pretend that you didn't care about money when you became a business person.

Speaker 1

很多做生意的人明明在乎成功,想变得富有,这其实是个很奇怪的话题禁忌。

Like, this this really weird taboo that a lot of business people who obviously care about succeeding, and they want to be wealthy.

Speaker 1

他们想要财务上的成功,但然后又得假装,觉得自己必须假装不在乎。

They want to be financially successful, but then they kinda have to pretend they feel like they have to pretend that they're not.

Speaker 1

而我们的播客叫《我的第一个一百万》。

And our podcast is called My First Million.

Speaker 1

我们当时挺直白的,就是说,嘿。

We we sort of were pretty blunt about, like, hey.

Speaker 1

你看。

Look.

Speaker 1

我们进入创业领域的一个主要原因,是的,我们喜欢那种创造力。

Like, one of the main reasons we got into entrepreneurship, yeah, we like the creativity.

Speaker 1

我们喜欢自主权、独立性,但奖品本身也很有趣。

We like the autonomy, the independence, but, like, the prize is also really fun.

Speaker 1

而且,你们做得非常出色。

And, you know, you guys did fantastically well.

Speaker 1

你能跟我们说说,变富是什么感觉吗?

Can you tell us, like, what it was like to get rich?

Speaker 0

对。

Yeah.

Speaker 0

我觉得对创业者来说最重要的一点是,如果你的生意能做到两千万这个规模,你就应该开始考虑这个问题了。

And I think the number one thing with entrepreneurs, if you can get to, like, that 20,000,000 mark within your business, you should be having this conversation.

Speaker 0

可能到了五百万的时候,你就得开始找一些财务建议了。

Maybe even at the 5,000,000 of you probably need to start getting some financial advice.

Speaker 0

你得开始考虑遗产规划、赠与免税额度这些,而且这些对话要尽早进行,因为越早做,把股份转到信托里什么的,长期来看对你越好。

You need to start thinking through your estate planning, your gifting exemptions, and having these conversations really earlier because the earlier you do it and you move your shares into trusts and all this, it's just better in the long run for you.

Speaker 0

所以提醒一下,如果你的公司收入在五百万到两千万之间,你就应该开始考虑这些了。

So just putting that out there, if you're anywhere between the 5 to 20,000,000 range of revenue for your company, you should be having these conversations.

Speaker 0

我觉得我们很幸运,早期就得到了很好的建议。

And I think for us, we were blessed to have really good advice early on.

Speaker 0

所以当你年复一年地等待那个可能永远不会发生的退出时刻,这确实是个很难受的处境。

And so when you're having these conversations years after years waiting for this one moment, this exit that may never happen, it's tough place to be.

Speaker 0

对我来说,我就觉得,好吧,我挺好的。

So for me, I'm like, okay, I'm great.

Speaker 0

我们已经到了那个阶段,但我不能老想着那件事。

We're there, but I can't think about that.

Speaker 0

但你说得对,确实是这样。

But to your point, absolutely.

Speaker 0

比如,我们当初就是想退出。

Like, we wanted to exit.

Speaker 0

我很高兴能为自己和家人积累世代财富,这一直是我的目标。

I I love that I can have generational wealth for me and my family, and it was always the goal.

Speaker 0

对吧?

Right?

Speaker 0

所以我觉得,我们在中途也做了一些套现,卖掉了一些股份,这样既能提前改善一下生活,也能留一笔应急钱,以防万一公司卖不掉。

And so I think that we also, like, halfway in took some chips off the table where we, like, sold some of our shares so that we could upgrade our lifestyle a little bit before and also have a nest egg just in case we don't sell.

Speaker 0

我知道很多创始人没有这么做,我真心建议他们这样做,因为我也听说过有人公司倒闭后一无所有。

And I know a lot of founders that haven't done that, And I implore them to do it because I've also heard of people going out of business, and they're left with nothing.

Speaker 1

嗯,你觉得这其实是双向的,对吧?

Well, would you say it kind of works both ways.

Speaker 1

对吧?

Right?

Speaker 1

一方面,这就像买保险,万一公司垮了,你还有安全网。

So there's one side is insurance in case in case it all fell over, you know, you have the safety net.

Speaker 1

但另一方面,也许你也有过这种经历。

But the other side, like, maybe you experienced this.

Speaker 1

我肯定有过,就是先套现一部分。

I I did for sure, which is you take a little bit off the table.

Speaker 1

你满足了第一层需求,然后你几乎可以放手去搏更大的,因为现在不是全有或全无了。

You you sort of satisfy that first level, and then you're almost free to swing bigger because you're not all or nothing now.

Speaker 1

你们当时做的时候,有这种感觉吗?

Did you feel that way when you guys did it?

Speaker 0

有的。

I did.

Speaker 0

我们当时的财务顾问跟我们说,他说,你永远不会后悔早点过上你想要的生活。

And our financial adviser at the time told us, he's like, you're never gonna regret living the life that you want earlier.

Speaker 0

比如说,我不知道。

Say say I don't know.

Speaker 0

随便定个数。

Just make a number.

Speaker 0

现在值五百万,五年后会值两千万。

It's worth $5,000,000, and in five years, it's gonna be worth 20,000,000.

Speaker 0

你永远不会后悔买了更好的房子,带孩子多度一次假,换更好的车,用更好的手机。

You're never gonna regret having buying the nicer house, going on the extra vacation with your kids, getting the upgraded car, having the nicer phone.

Speaker 0

你永远不会后悔拥有这些经历。

You're never gonna regret having those experiences.

Speaker 0

我同意。

And I agree.

Speaker 0

我完全同意这一点,这让我们能够退一步,然后更努力地工作,想着,等等,我还想要更多。

And I wholeheartedly agree with that, that it allowed us to then sit back and, like, work harder for, like, wait, I want more of this.

Speaker 0

然后坚定决心,这种生活方式的升级就是一切。

And to, like, dig your heels in and, this is this upgrade in lifestyle is everything.

Speaker 0

所以对我们来说,这真的很重要。

So I for us, it was really important.

Speaker 0

然后当你真正拿到钱的那一天,你会发现你的生活并不会一夜之间改变。

And then the day you actually get the money, you realize your life is doesn't change overnight.

Speaker 0

我觉得还有一件事就是,钱到账的那一刻。

I think that's another thing that happens is the the money hits the bank account.

Speaker 0

我永远不会忘记,因为你知道,史蒂文有他的股份。

I'll never forget it because, you know, Steven has his shares.

Speaker 0

我有我的,我们那天就一直刷新、刷新。

I have mine, and we're like, refresh, refresh on day of.

Speaker 0

然后我的那一半大概十点到了,但到两点他的还没到。

And then, like, my half hit at, like, ten, and it was still, like, two, and his hadn't hit.

Speaker 0

我就想,哦,嗨。

And I was like, oh, hi.

Speaker 0

我又不是追着你。

I'm not chasing you.

Speaker 0

最后终于到账了,然后我们就说,嘿,去庆祝一下吧。

And finally, like, went to the account, and then we were like, hey, let's go celebrate.

Speaker 0

去吃个午饭或者晚饭。

Let's go to lunch or go to dinner.
