How Brand Growth Experts method of freedom leads to profit

Austin Brawner, CEO of Brand Growth Experts, joins the POD to give some insight on brand growth, business mindsets, and product strategies.

Brand Growth Experts is a marketing agency that helps early stage store owners achieve growth in their businesses while freeing up more time to do what they love

Austin recognized that when it comes to building a business, it is common to feel overworked and reach a burnout. To avoid this problem he has created a brand that fosters opportunities of enrichment for companies as a whole.

Approaches are taken to allow more freedom and room to be creative by identifying the methods of operation within a business and outsourcing skill sets that are currently weakened within the company.

Austin recognizes that there is not a right and wrong way to grow a business and success comes from your mindset about the business.

Delegation is key to scaling in DTC

Brand Growth Experts stands out as a marketing company that prioritizes an underused element for brand growth… freedom.

The brand has learned from experience that a business must balance out their skill set within an organization, and freedom comes from trusting your workers and letting go of total control.

Austin suggests looking for the things that are repeatable in your business that can be systematized, and then begin delegating those tasks to free up your time to focus on the bigger picture.

The brand has fostered further growth opportunities for brands by locating a hero product before expanding.

Austin recommends fostering empowerment and trust within your brand, because what you believe about your business is what it will become.
