NAMI CEO Daniel H. Gillison Jr. orchestrated a phenomenal panel on Brand Storytelling at Hollywood & Mind along with Sarah Shaker, AVP, Head of Brand Engagement, Maybelline New York and Craig Dubitsky. I also had the pleasure of catching up with Craig ahead of time and came away with these distilled insights on how he’s made incredible products that resonate with the market: - Focus on people - Focus on solving problems - Keep asking why, why, why, why, why - Have fun along the way Craig and Robert Downey Jr. co-founded and launched new coffee company happy™, obsessing over the details and nuance of product quality, display-worthy product design and recyclability. Plus there’s an incredible partnership with NAMI, which also owns an equity stake in the company and provides helpful mental health resources via a QR code on the packaging.
