What We Learned
1. Launching is easier when you're doing it with someone else.
There are many situations that people face that become easier when you're not facing them alone. Anything from not knowing how to handle a situation to overcoming failure. Having a friend with you also makes the celebrations that much more fun.
2. You have to be willing to reinvent yourself.
No one has the same job for 30 years anymore because of the constantly changing work environment. Jobs become automated and others become eliminated. This means that you must be willing learn new skills so you can adapt to your environment.
3. Figure out what differentiates you from everyone else.
Loyal Collective decides that they were going to sell high quality clothing products directly to their customers. This has allowed them to provide less expensive products while still maintaining high quality. Everyone has the ability to figure out what makes them unique and set themselves apart.
