Episode description

On today's episode of Authentic Influence, Adam Conner is joined by Lorna Sommerville, the Chief Marketing & Customer Experience Officer at Function of Beauty. Function of Beauty is the world’s most customizable hair care and body care brand.

Today, you'll learn:

  • Why Lorna chose Function of Beauty as her next play following years in CPG and, most recently, DTC leadership at Harry's

  • Lorna's leadership values; what makes a truly good marketing team?

  • How Function of Beauty builds truly 1:1 relationships beyond the initial data they receive (which leads to formulation of one of 54 trillion different hair care options. You read that right.)

  • How consumers are encouraged to share (including shampoo selfies -- have you ever gotten a bottle at the store with your name on it?)

  • As always, advice to build a more authentic brand. Notable quote: "Marketing is a tax for being unremarkable."
