Get the blueprint for ethical business

(From someone who's actually done it before.)

Most business advice come from people whose business is... selling advice.

I started Ethique back in my tiny kitchen.

Today, it's in 22 countries, 8,000 stores and worth $100m. 

Now I'm giving ambitious, mission-led entrepreneurs the tools to do the same (and avoid the mistakes I made on my own journey). 

I've even made it free. You're welcome.

 

If you can't tell me why your business is different, how will a customer?! Sign up for our newsletter and we'll send you our free Value Proposition worksheet, to make marketing much easier.

I promise we won't spam you and you can unsubscribe anytime.

I'm here to help ethical businesses grow and change the world, and in particular:

Build a world-changing brand that inspires  diehard fans

Brand and marketing is everything in an ultra-competitive world. But being mission-led helps you stand out. 

Get Your Products on to Retailer Shelves 

But in a strategic way, that pays off long term.

Expand Internationally and Start Exporting

It's easier than ever to go offshore, but you need to do it right. 

And you'll discover how, through

Business, but Better.

NICE TO MEET YOU

I'm Brianne West

I help purpose-led entrepreneurs start and scale enterprises that solve some of the biggest problems we face. 

I never had any real idea of what I wanted to do with my life, beyond 'saving the world', (whatever that meant).
After starting and selling two businesses in my early twenties, and graduating with a science degree, I started Ethique, a regenerative beauty brand based in Aotearoa New Zealand.

Valued at over $100 million by the time I stepped down as CEO nearly 10 years later, Ethique saved over 25 million plastic bottles, and showed that business that was sustainable, equitable and operated fairly, could also be profitable.
