Community-minded brands create long-term relationships with customers. We are still continuing to improve our business model and practices to help inform and educate consumers of the small changes they can make and the organizations they can support. Although there is an increased awareness of the impact of one’s decisions, it is up to us as a whole to help everyone learn what it actually means to care about the products they purchase, and the brands buy in to. We need to help people research the brands they are shopping from and realize that being a thoughtful consumer doesn’t have to break the bank. It’s not about giving anything up — including affordability, accessibility, or authenticity — it’s about getting more.
