#732: Where you live is already deciding what you'll buy today, before you've even made up your mind. And it turns out the customers your local stores ignore completely are often a brand's most valuable ones. David Bell spent twenty years as a Wharton marketing professor before becoming one of the earliest investors in Warby Parker, Bonobos, and Diapers.com. He's now co-founder of the consumer venture studio Idea Farm Ventures. In this episode, we discuss: Why the same person makes different purchases depending on where they live How four college students' "nutty idea" became Warby Parker Why the customers your local store ignores can become your best customers Why a failed meal-kit startup accidentally proved a rule about demand How a founder turned a boring hand sanitizer into a ten-dollar status symbol Why AI can now replicate a $100,000 market research study for almost nothing This episode is for anyone building — or dreaming of building — their own brand, product, or side hustle, and who wants to understand why people really open their wallets. ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS Note: Timestamps may vary slightly depending on dynamic ad placements.
