Personalized Vitamins Delivered Right to Your Door
Jason Brown, CEO of Vitamin Packs, discusses how his company can deliver improved health right to your door. Vitamin Packs is a start-up subscription service that delivers personalized vitamins to consumers once a month.
Brown explains the company takes customers' personal information into account, including any and all medications. He says the general vitamin business started as snake oil but is now nearing pharmaceutical grade.
Vitamin Packs raised $3.8 million in its first round of funding and just shipped its 5000th order. While a majority of first-time users still come from social media and PR posts, word of mouth is becoming crucial to Brown's business model.
We may not be headed for a 2008-esque disaster, but increased geopolitical tension paired with the end of the tech boom means volatility could stick around.
The dreaded Netflix crackdown on profile sharing translated into a major boost in subscribers while the promised rate cuts seem to be a far off fantasy.
