Manage episode 366768191 series 3441375
As one of the first YouTube stars, Ingrid reached over 6 million followers and landed pioneering deals with Covergirl, Jo Malone London, and Fresh Beauty. In 2020, she joined forces with Erica, who had built a career in tech and media, to launch The New Savant. The brand pays homage to the untraditional, self-made journey in life.
In this episode, Ingrid and Erica sit down with Brittney Jackson Moseley, who runs integrated marketing at Scentbird. From a tea shop in Paris to a ping pong table in Indiana, they take us back how they started making candles. They talk about capturing uncommon notes like desert air and pignoli cookies, and tell the story of the high school fantasy that inspired one of their most popular candles.
Highlights:
• Ingrid’s untraditional path, from college dropout to founder
• The story behind the name “The New Savant”
• Giving voice to those who have had to find their own way
• Launching out of Ingrid’s kitchen and selling out in 7 minutes
• The tradition customers started on their own
