This week on the Community podcast, Kristina is joined by Monika and Robyn, founders of Mint Cleaning, an iconic Canadian brand for Eco-friendly cleaning products.

Their story shows us what’s possible when two moms meet in a small town, identify a need, and decide to say yes, even before they have all the answers figured out.

Tune in to hear the Mint Cleaning story, and how Monika and Robyn have built a multi-million dollar business with online community and founder-led content.

They cover topics like:

How founder-led content and authentic storytelling became Mint’s biggest growth strategy.
How building community led to loyal customers, repeat buyers, and a brand people champion.
How they evaluate what retailers, partnerships and other opportunities to pursue as a rising product-based business.
Why they still manage their own DMs despite having a team that could do it for them.
