Building a Brand Beyond the Idea

In today’s episode, I sit down with Alli Webb and Michael Landau, the sibling entrepreneurs behind Drybar and co-CEOs of Messy, to talk about building businesses, working with family, and learning from experience. Alli and Michael share how their early challenges as business partners prepared them to build Drybar together, along with the complementary skills that helped turn a simple idea into a national brand. We discuss recognizing the emotional value behind a product, trusting the right partners, and knowing when experience should guide major decisions. They also share lessons from Drybar’s growth and sale, their evolving relationship with money, and building Messy with a new perspective.
