B Corp eCommerce Expert Podcast Episodes

Our page full of all our interviews with B Corps – and pending B Corps…

In 2023 we did our first month of episodes dedicated to B Corp, and it had quite an impact…

So it’s been an easy decision to repeat our B Corp month for 2024. Again we’re doing it during the official “B Corp Month” March.

All 4 episodes for 2024 are now live (see 480-483 below) with all our topics and guests picked to help you:

Better understand the benefits of B Corp for an eCommerce Business
Understand the application process
Understand the process of staying a B Corp

We’ve even got Lucy Jeffrey from Bare Kind (who was singing our praises in 2023) on to share how she went from listening in 2023, to being a B Corp in time to record for 2024.

Love it when it goes full circle…
