Soul & Science : #12: EBOOST Founder & CEO Josh Taekman | Eat What You Kill: Building a Brand from Scratch

SHOW NOTES

My guest on the pod this week, Josh Taekman is the Founder & CEO of the functional wellness brand, EBOOST. Inspired by hip-hop, Josh’s career started in the mailroom at Bad Boy Entertainment where he learned that you “eat what you kill” and hustled to start his own agency. Eventually, he saw a space for a functional wellness product that spoke to the pop culture audience. EBOOST, was born as a wellness supplement that supports immunity, boosts your energy and gives you essential vitamins. By focusing on building small, close communities, Josh has been able to triple distribution of EBOOST to 12,000 locations in the U.S.

In this episode you’ll learn:
  • You have to hustle and can’t take no for an answer.
  • Building community is key for growth.
  • Don’t judge by effort, judge by results.
  • Not everyone is an entrepreneur.

Thank you, Josh, for joining me. Give it a listen, and fast forward your marketing mind in about 20 minutes. https://apple.co/3LDwXNu
