Book Description
There are thousands of D2C businesses today. Some scale, but the hard truth is that most don’t. That’s because there’s a lot that goes into building a D2C brand from the ground up and not all founders or prospective founders may have prior experience in this space. Hence, a lot of them, particularly early-stage, miss out on key things they should be doing, resulting in opportunity loss, costly mistakes and slower growth. In this book, or blueprint (which is what it truly is), you will get a roadmap that will guide you to do the right things with every aspect of building a D2C brand, across product, customer service, supply chain, logistics and growth strategies. Why this blueprint and not any other blog or information on the internet, you may wonder. Well, this blueprint is the brainchild of a growth consultant who has scaled multiple D2C brands from scratch. It distils out the key concepts and actions that would drive the maximum impact and is also structured in a way that would make it easy for any founder to understand and implement. Implementing this blueprint will help you push all the right buttons and accelerate growth instead of spending time and energy trying to reinvent the wheel and figure out what to do. So go ahead and get ready to supercharge your D2C growth today!

Sacred Pregnancy
Author: Anni Daulter
Publisher: North Atlantic Books
ISBN: 1583944443
Category : Health & Fitness
Languages : en
Pages : 361
Book Description
In today's western cultures, the typical pregnancy focuses on the baby to the exclusion of the woman herself, so that the entire experience has become more about preparing for the baby's arrival than looking closely at oneself to prepare emotionally for all of the changes that creating a new life brings. Sacred Pregnancy was written to help the pregnant woman journey within herself to prepare for the birth of her baby. Sacred Pregnancy is a gorgeous four-color book especially created for mothers-to-be to reflect on the many personal milestones of the full gestation period of a pregnancy. With beautiful professional photos that correspond to each topic, Sacred Pregnancy also features a journal space for the pregnant woman to record her thoughts and feelings. Each week the mother-to-be is given information on her baby, her body, and her spirit and is asked to reflect on these via the topic of the week, which touches on a variety of issues such as sexuality, fears about labor, becoming a mother, courage, rite of passage, adornment, body image, meditation, and sisterhood to name a few. Mothers-to-be are invited to look deeply at the issues unique to their journey and find a centered, peaceful place to live their pregnancy fully. Lastly, Sacred Pregnancy includes place for the new mother to record her birth story and a large resource section on various birthing options and supports for pregnant women. “From the spiritual (how to visualize your perfect birth) to the practical (a large section on birthing options), this pregnancy journal is a spiritual adviser and supportive doula all in one.” —Fit Pregnancy magazine For more information, visit the Sacred Pregnancy website.

‘Dying' to be White
Author: Purnima Mehta Bhatt
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1040121918
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 198
Book Description
This book examines the phenomenon of colorism in India and the Global South and critically analyses the obsession with fair skin and its association with social capital or mobility. Exploring the prevalence of colorism in India, China, Japan, Vietnam, South Africa, Brazil, Argentina, Kenya and Australia, it traces its roots in history, scriptures, travel narratives, contemporary media and popular culture. How much did colonialism and European imperialism contribute to the desire to be white? How have globalization and the spread of consumer culture and Western ideals of beauty helped exacerbate these issues? The author discusses these questions while looking at the aspirations for beauty and modernity among these societies and the growing popularity of the use of creams, lotions and other methods to whiten the skin as a means to assimilate, emulate the West and gain better prospects and life. Lucid and topical, this book will be an essential read for scholars and researchers of race and colorism, sociology, social history, social anthropology, cultural studies, consumer economics, Asian studies and South Asian studies.
