Business of Home Podcast

A few years ago, almost on a whim, Lindroth and her CEO, went on a road trip through China, visiting factories and creating a collection of pieces to launch a product line. After a runaway success at the Atlanta Gift Show she has been busy turning her collection into a fully fledged brand.
In the latest episode of the Business of Home podcast, sponsored by Datacolor, Lindroth shares with host Dennis Scully the twists and turns of her journey. She discusses how her team used data (and intuition) to pick the location for their first major retail space, why it’s important to hire based on what you don’t know, and how the most important thing she’s learned from the islands isn’t rattan or pastels, but a philosophical approach to business. “You just have to roll with it. … If someone has made a mistake, or something catastrophic has happened, as long as no one is hurt, as long as it’s something you can recover from by being completely transparent and accountable, then that isn’t actually a problem,” she says. “It’s always in how you handle it.”
