Values are a funny thing.
You have to be willing to live them every single day. In every single situation.
And many brands treat the process as a one and done situation.
Or just pick and choose when they’re going to stay true to the values they set at the very beginning.
On this episode, Kristen shares a couple of the brands getting backlash for doing just that.
And a few that are getting it right when it comes to living out their values.
And don’t forget to break out your tissues.
Because this is the last episode of Ecomm Noms.
Kristen is off to do big things at Shopify.
And today is actually her first day, so go wish her luck (although she probably doesn’t need it).
