In this episode of the Gamechangers podcast, I’m talking to Wendy Downs, the woman behind the accessory brand Moop. Designed and fully manufactured, from start to finish, in their downtown Pittsburgh studio, Moop bags are handmade from waxed canvas and leather and are the epitome of small batch manufacturing done right. Wendy talks about how she evolved her brand from a small Etsy shop where she made one bag at a time, to the powerhouse company it is today, by creating and implementing systems without sacrificing an ounce of the attention to detail and gorgeous quality that her customers are used to. She talks about her business model, her marketing strategies and how she practices “conscientious decision making” on the regular. Enjoy!
