The Founder Next Door: taking you behind the scenes of your fave Welly brands
Building strong brands can be feel a bit like whipping up magic. For some companies it seems so simple, for others it can feel like an uphill battle.
At our inaugural 'Founder Next Door' session you will hear from Roman Jewell, one half of the duo that behind Wellington's best butters - Fix & Fogg. Get the low down on not only building a brand that works and flourishes, but also on the path that lead Roman and Andrea from lives as lawyers to... peanuts.
Strong brand values + peanuts = success?
Roman will get gritty about getting started, growing and then scaling a great brand and building a business with values at its core. There will be chances for you to ask questions, and get advice from someone that has ‘been there and done that’.
As part of our ‘Raising your Profile’ stream of Collider learning opportunities this event will touch on ways you can solidify your idea and grow it; while delving into the real story of a founder, their business and the stuff they wish they knew before they got started.
We expect to cover:
-

-
A boutique approach
-
Why Wellington?
-
Value based business
-
What the future holds
-
Founder truth bombs
