Glou Beauty's "before" episode is still gaining over 1M views per day, but my performance in the finale episode is WHERE 👏 IT'S 👏 AT 👏. I was just in NYC for the #PitchWhatsPossible Finale Watch Party last Friday and it was lovely to be reunited with the cast and crew that made this series happen. 🥂 🏆 Getting to hear the audience laugh and clap, as I saw myself pitch on the big screen, was the best feeling. So if you haven't already, go watch the episode and let me know what you think!! 😇 https://lnkd.in/g7y2Z4WA (My pitch starts at 27:24, because we gotta save the best for last 😉) #awsstartups #startuppitch #startups #founderjourney

🎥 WOW! I can't believe the world will finally get to see this!! 🎬 🎭 I like to put on a ~show~ when it comes to pitching Glou Beauty. So, for anyone who's always wanted to see me pitch LIVE, the show is coming to YOU! And I don't think you'll be disappointed. 🍿 🤷🏻♀️ As a founder, you are always revising your pitch. At the beginning, it helps you think through all aspects of your business. After a couple years, I had gotten to the point where I didn’t know how else to evolve my pitch anymore, so I jumped at the opportunity to work with Allison McGuire on this special project with Amazon Web Services (AWS). 🦄 The pressure to create something even better was very real. It was hard going into the whole thing without an inkling of what the final result would be. 💃 Follow along with me as the episodes stream weekly over the next month! #pitchwhatspossible
🎬 Get ready for something BIG! 🎬 Next week, we’re kicking off Pitch What’s Possible, a one-of-a-kind video series where startups undergo a pitch makeover to perfect their presentations! 🚀✨ Using elite techniques, these visionary founders will refine their strategies and deliver pitches designed to capture attention and set them on the path to success.

Clearly the peeps over the UK know what's up! Glou Beauty was featured in The Times over the weekend!!!! "...Lee says her customer base is growing. 'We have five times the number of people signing up to buy and sell on Glou on a daily basis than three years ago, and twice as many as this time last year,' she says. "In general our customers are very savvy online shoppers who know how to hunt for a deal, but also have a lot of product knowledge in the beauty realm. They come with a wishlist of products so they make very intentional purchases.'" https://lnkd.in/g8UX27Ya

Shout out to our next eco-friendly founder, Karen Lee of Glou Beauty, the first beauty company to approach sustainability by helping users practice conscious consumerism. The Glou Beauty commerce platform is a marketplace for rehoming great beauty products - already in the hands of sellers who have previously purchased but unopened items - with consumers who want to buy them. Watch below as Karen explains how we can help save our planet together. 💚 #EarthMonth https://go.aws/49UvMFL
