Description
Everyone says they’re building a community. But very few brands actually are.

Featuring insights from Tara McKeon (Proud Poppy), Briony Kennedy (Adorn Cosmetics), Anastasia Lloyd-Wallis (Retail Doctor Group) and Laura Thompson & Sarah Sheridan (Clothing The Gaps), this episode explores why the brands winning today aren’t just building audiences: they’re building belonging.
