How do you launch a sustainable fashion brand? Where do you even begin? What expenses should you avoid? How do you stand out in all of the social media noise? These are all questions we’re going to explore in the newest podcast to hit the fashion scene.

I’m Shannon Lohr, your host and the founder of Factory45, the online business school that takes sustainable fashion brands from idea to launch. Named the “#1 business program to launch your fashion brand” by Maker’s Row, this podcast will explore the strategy, marketing principles, and roadmap that I’ve used to help launch sustainable & ethical fashion brands since 2014.

 You want to start a sustainable fashion brand that’s ethically manufactured and eco-friendly, that’s why you’re here. The question is: Where do you start? What does it mean to be “sustainable” and what are some of the most important things you should keep in mind as you build your brand? That’s what I’m going to share with you in today’s episode.
