Every week we will take a deep dive into a business and share with you some of their marketing & business strategies that helped these businesses scale.

In Episode 15, we dissect into Yeti’s business & marketing strategy – The company was founded in 2006 by 2 brothers Roy & Ryan Seiders but really started to get noticed in 2011 when sales hit $29 million. They took a commoditized product "a cooler" and made it into something extremely desirable by implementing a technology that had their coolers keep ice frozen for long periods of time. In addition, their coolers were much sturdier than what the market was currently offering. Let's dive into how these guys built the ultimate cult brand across many outdoor enthusiasts.
