Do you know Puig? This remarkable Spanish beauty and luxury conglomerate recently made headlines with the largest European IPO in 2024. Renowned for its portfolio of perfume and cosmetics brands such as Rabanne, Carolina Herrera, Charlotte Tilbury, Jean Paul Gaultier or Nina Ricci, Puig continues to set industry standards and is hacking growth through M&A, as with the recent acquisition of Dr. Barbara Sturm. Founded in 1914, Puig is a true tale of entrepreneurship. From its humble beginnings, it has grown into a global leader, marketing its products in 150 countries and employing around 5,000 people worldwide. Our Co-founder and Co-CEO Felipe Navío had the pleasure of meeting board member Marc Puig through Endeavor Spain’s "Meet the Board" initiative. They discussed a variety of topics, including the rollercoaster of entrepreneurship, the nuances of managing a family business, strategic pivots, the US market dynamics, growth through strategic M&A, and the significance of having a clear vision. Not to mention, they celebrated Puig's tremendously successful IPO this year. 🎉 Here’s to inspiring stories and ambitious journeys! #Entrepreneurship #GlobalLeadership #JobAndTalent #Endeavor #Puig

Family Businesses: The Heart of Retail. Inspired by a recent talk on Generational Innovation in Retail at ISTITUTO MARANGONI MIAMI featuring Chief Commercial Officer Mauricio Espinosa, Director of Ready to Wear Sofia Espinosa of Silvia Tcherassi, and moderated by Eva Hughes, I've been reflecting on the vital role family businesses play in our retail sector. Did you know that a whopping 90% of American businesses are family-owned or controlled? 🤯 While this spans all industries, it's clear that family businesses are the backbone of our retail landscape. These businesses aren't just about numbers; they're deeply woven into our communities, prioritizing customer relationships, and championing long-term sustainability. Their resilience, strong values, and innovative spirit (as exemplified by the Tcherassi family! 👏) make them a driving force in the retail world. But what's YOUR take? If you're a consumer: Share your favorite family-owned retail store and why you love supporting them. ❤️ If you're in the retail industry: How have family businesses impacted your career or business? 🤝 If you're part of a family business: What are some of the unique challenges and rewards you've experienced? 💪 Let's celebrate the contributions of family businesses and keep the conversation going! #FamilyBusiness #RetailIndustry #ShopLocal #Sustainability #SmallBusiness #Entrepreneurship

People's attention needs to be earned. Usually, it involves thinking outside of the box. Jo Malone London is a powerhouse name in the perfume industry. Before all the traction, Joanne Lesley Malone, the brand's Founder, had to earn part of the market share, which the brand did later on. She had developed formulas that smelled great, so much so that she believed customers would relate to the brand. So, the product was there, and the question then became about how to get people to notice. The idea that came next was, in my opinion, genius. Joanne hired several people to carry many eloquently designed Jo Malone shopping bags to walk around the city during the weeks before the product launch. The feeling was supposed to be "This is the next cool thing" and it sure did feel like it. Long story short, Jo Malone became a hit, and even got acquired in 1999 by Estée Lauder Companies. We can't completely disregard past methods. But, we can't just stick to the same norm over and over again. Be brave and create excitement. Let's keep moving forward! #motivation #entrepreneurship

Turning Capable Founders into Confident Business Leaders | Strategy Expert & Organisational Psychologist | Host of The Founder Files Podcast
If I had one takeaway from my conversation with Nick Dreyer, it would be this: Do what works for YOU. Nick's insights on Veldskoen Shoes's growth strategy are a reminder that there are no two paths alike in entrepreneurship. There were no cookie-cutter plans for Veldskoen: just a bold vision and strong values. With Ross, they bootstrapped their business and took it to 30 countries in 5 years with a unique combination of holding companies, franchise models and local partners. But while their shoes have been on the most influential feet (the SA Olympic and Paralympic team in Tokyo, Prince Harry, Ashton Kutcher, etc.), there's one thing Nick always emphasizes: "We've chosen to focus on the brand from a heritage perspective for as long as we can. And we're happy to grow within that because the last thing I want to be is a fashion thing. A 300-year-old object shouldn't go out of fashion." Lesson learned: Stick to your true self and values – they attract the right people. Thanks, Nick!

🇸🇬 Personal Branding For Entrepreneurs - Black Marketing is the World No.1 Personal Branding Firm - with 2,100+ LinkedIn Recommendations we are trusted to enhance your personal brand on LinkedIn to find you new clients
I love meeting Founders and discussing with them how they made their firms a success and what they learnt as well going in depth to discuss the challenges that they have had along the way. So it was truly inspiring to meet up with one of the founders of Brotzeit, Franz Lanthaler at, suitably enough, Brotzeit at Vivo. The lessons that Franz has learnt and recounted to me are the story of every entrepreneur’s journey and include but are certainly not limited to: -Expanding too quickly -Having to shut down unprofitable outlets such as those in 313 where the rent went up too much to be sustainable and Star Vista where not enough customers bought alcohol -Having co-founders wishing to be bought out -Opening franchises who then stole the concept, rebranded and there was nothing that could be done about it -Manpower issues -Supply chain issues -Menu concepts working and not working -Marketing challenges -Loyalty scheme challenges And more! It was a fascinating chat and I learnt a lot. Ironically Franz’s main business is not FnB but jewellery which is his specialism. He’s also not on LinkedIn preferring to keep a relatively low profile so I was honoured to spend time with him and think about what he had said. Ultimately Brotzeit is a fantastic business and makes money and is profitable by controlling costs and focusing on the menu and giving value to their customers and are a great example of how to launch and build a successful business in Singapore and Asia but it has not been plain sailing as no entrepreneurial journey is. If you're a Founder and would like to meet up at one of my Brotzeit ‘offices’ on the “mainland” at either Raffles City or Vivo to discuss how we could enhance your personal brand on LinkedIn to win you new clients, new investors or get a new job/NED role with a FREE CV, DM me, our service details are here: https://buff.ly/3IQjykd #linkedin #rockstar #mohawk #founder #entrepreneur #personalbranding #blackmarketing #linkedinmarketing #sentosa #singapore #brotzeit #mainland

What strikes me, Cornelia: We know many owners who are still very active as CEO or Chairman even if they are already very old. Being an entrepreneur appraently keeps you young! AvS Advisors #familybusiness #ownershipadvisory
𝗪𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗻 𝟵𝟬, 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗽 𝗱𝗼𝘄𝗻 𝗮𝘀 𝗖𝗘𝗢 𝗼𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗻𝘆? Giorgio Armani celebrates his 90th birthday today. Yet, he still is CEO and the sole owner of the company he founded in 1975, today a 2.5 bn € business. As Armani has no children, other family members, who already work for the company, and a foundation are expected to take over his legacy – one day. He is said to have no plans to sell his company or do an IPO or to appoint a successor now. This may come as a surprise, but he is just one prominent example of something that happens more often than you might think. ➡ So when is the 𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘀𝘂𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 in family businesses? This may be a very individual and, above all, emotional decision. But the right time for 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 the succession needs to be well in advance of that date. In any case, congratulations to Giorgio Armani on his birthday and his outstanding entrepreneurial success! ❔ And we could ask ourselves: is 65 perhaps too early to retire? Which tasks will keep us young and engaged then for the next 25 years? #succession #familybusiness #nextgen #entrepreneur #longevity

HOLOFIL today got a repeat order for the third time from the same swiss client who first ordered it online from our e-store in early 2020. This is a testament to the quality of the product and value the customers see it offers. Another German client who is focused on jewelry/ watch retail industry distribution network who onboarded with us last week with his new display, called today to tell how happy he is with both our business and consumer displays. He will sell Holofil in the German market as one of our latest distributors in EU. Build a business where your clients / partners come back to you on their own and praise your product. Nothing beats that high. Not even investors and their massive funds. Had Covid not pushed Holofil on back foot in 2020-2021 the story in momentum today would have been a completely different one, because just when Covid hit in March 2020 onwards, Holofil lost a massive number of confirmed sales bulk orders that year, that killed all its massive momentum. But it has survived and slowly coming back on track again. #startup #entrepreneurship #customer #feedback #customerservice
