In this episode, we meet the force of nature, Jenna Flateman Posner, just two months into her new gig with innovative home products brand, wholesaler and direct-to-consumer retailer Solo Brands. We cover a lot of ground in this interview, not unlike what Jenna did as a University athlete and member of the USA Women’s Sevens rugby team.

Hear more about how Solo Brands has dedicated country sites, distribution in Canada and Europe, and the best days. Learn how Jenna prioritized technology investment with a mind to global reach and presence.

Thanks to Stream Commerce for their support in making this episode happen.
