In this episode, Braven - Founder & CEO of Gains (Gains in Bulk) - breaks down the real highs and painful lows of building a consumer brand: the early scrappy grind, what actually differentiates a supplements product, the operational mistakes that hurt (but taught the most), and the mindset it takes to earn long-term customer trust.
