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. (🎧Listen Here: bit.ly/DeepDiveIntoBusinessesAudio)
In Episode 55 we dissect DUDE Wipes business & marketing strategy – Founded in 2011 by 4 guys that started the company in a small apartment in Chicago. Their main initial product, Flushable Wipes, built up their reputation wasn’t something innovative. Essentially it was baby wipes repurposed into a whole new brand. Within a few years of successful growth, they landed on Shark Tank in 2015 where Mark Cuban invested 300k in exchange for 25% equity. In 2022, they are estimated to be worth $50 mil. Analyzing this company can help you think of ways of recreating an existing product & introducing new customers to an already existing one (Rebranding & Storytelling).
