This week on The Lazy CEO, I’m joined by Meagan Pate, co-founder of STRAAND and COO and co-owner of Three Warriors.

Meagan knows what it takes to turn a gap in the market into a global beauty brand. She’s helped scale Three Warriors into a multi-million-dollar business and co-founded STRAAND, which is rethinking the scalp care category entirely. From raising millions in capital to getting products onto the shelves of major global retailers, Meagan has plenty of lessons to share about what it actually takes to build and scale a consumer brand.

In this episode, we get into:
How to spot gaps in the market and turn them into products people actually want.
What it takes to get your products onto the shelves of major global retailers and take an Australian brand international.
The realities of raising $6M and building a venture-backed business.
The differences between scaling a bootstrapped brand and a venture-backed business.
