Episode highlights
“It’s an exciting time where cultural trends are coming together. People are more interested in their own health, and more willing to use tools to be an active participant in managing their health.” – 9:50 – Chris Rushe
“We were moving from being a functional period tracker to being an essential female health partner. Our biggest advocates said they couldn’t live without Flo. What I was struck by was how essential they felt it was, and we connected that back to our purpose.” – 12:25 – Nick Lisher
“For us, standing out and communicating our unique proposition, it’s about changing the rules and the competitive plane we’re competing on. We’re defining a new category.” – 16:30 – Chris Rushe
“I think that how you market your product, and what you claim it can do, is really important and you have to be very sensitive to it. We have to be very prudent, for very good reason, with what we claim our app can and cannot do.” – 28:30 – Nick Lisher
“Getting to that inner drive during the interview process is probably the biggest indicator that someone will find it easy to get out of bed in the morning to solve some really difficult challenges, because we’re changing an industry. We’re looking for someone with vision.” – 37:40 – Chris Rushe
“Our biggest challenge has evolved from growing really fast internationally, to how we really convince people of the extra value of Flo. The other big challenge is to continue building trust with our member base.” – 41:15 – Nick Lisher
