Kendra Scott Brand: How to Scale a Small Business into a Billion Dollar Brand

[@BehindtheBrand]

I know I say this about all of my interviews but Kendra is definitely a standout. I was impressed with her on many levels...She's got 70+ stores and her company is valued at $1B dollars but she runs things like a family business. She's smart, talented, inspirational and one of the nicest people I've met.

[@OlgaPogozheva]

I had the same impression about her. She's a natural. Amazing woman.

[@kendrakroll]

Fantastic piece, Bryan. While I've never met Kendra, I can see her genuineness and decency. She's exactly the kind of person I'd be honored to associate with... we've got the same first name so maybe that's worth something? :) lol! I'm a mompreneur, too, and have a patented accessory line that's the answer for the lack of functional pockets in our clothing. While very well loved by users, almost noone knows we're here. Even after 13 yrs. Maybe one day people will understand PortaPocket. Maybe Kendra will see how we can align... (just sent her a sample)...perhaps she'll be our angel... it's all about sharing and bringing positivity to others. Keep doing what you're doing, B...this has been a real treat to watch. xo

I love that! I’m so inspired!

[@reepurpose8712]

Being a boss that people want to work for is brilliant.

[@BehindtheBrand]

agree, Kendra is so genuine

[@maniok1977]

So true!

[@constructionwithkaren]

I love Kendra's story and reminds me of how i started, sustained myself during varsity days, my son's birth and went up to opening a store that i had to close just before Covid19. I still believe that though the store closed the dream is still alive. This was really inspiring and encouraging to keep trying. I hope 1day to meet this lady, as she really speaks to my journey. Great interview.

[@kandolight4476]

I loved her failure story. It’s definitely motivating to know it wasn’t overnight success and she’s still at it for 16 yrs and going!

[@BehindtheBrand]

I felt the same way, thanks for watching!

[@shesontop]

I don't think we've ever heard one story of success that didn't have examples of "failure" along the way.

[@RC-ku8pr]

Very Intelligent woman.... Your a PERFECT example of NEVER giving up...

[@MH-ul5wn]

After making jewelries to sell on fb for years I never thought of going into any local stores to put my handmade earrings for sell there. I have great talents, I made real beautiful unique jewelries but I just need to find my way how to get there like you. Kendra, Thank you for the inspiration video. Never heard of you or your jewelries line before, but I can already tell you're a kind Heart person. May your business continue to grow. Hopefully one day I'll get to own a piece of your collection.

Nordstrom and Barney’s are the places to go to show your jewelry to buyers. Good luck!!

[@giada4094]

Fire in your belly.. She is definitely inspiring and a WINNER in this life.

[@BehindtheBrand]

Thanks Gi

[@teresagregg3957]

Thanks Kendra for your insight and inspirations

[@n0tfr0mth1sw0rld]

I loved when she mentioned at 8:00 that she wanted to make the thing she was focussed on, work so badly, that she didnt realise that she experienced already something else which actually worked. I think many can relate to this on a daily basis. Not to be willing to let go of the old and deciding for a different path. It is so simple. If something doesnt work, change something and try something different.

[@BehindtheBrand]

[@perpetualpaws]

She is so beautiful and was a single mom growing her business. Reminds me of my mother

[@BehindtheBrand]

[@ieltson-air]

ı have so much respect for this woman

[@BehindtheBrand]

[@zareinakhan2342]

I love Kendra Scott jewelry!!! Love colors and stones and small details on chain, earrings .... so vibrant yet suddel!!!!

[@BehindtheBrand]

Kendra was the real deal...so genuine

[@Mr_Kenneth]

Kendra seems awesome. Classy, Caring and Kooky (just a bit). WINNER COMBO

[@rayusaki88]

What an inspiring woman! She’s really a wonderful, kind and wise woman! I’m in awe!

[@BehindtheBrand]

[@osilvap]

I went to the same high school as Kendra in Klein,Texas (Klein High School), and shared a class with her, which I believe was Cooperative Education. It's amazing to see what she has done. Very inspiring. Congratulations, Kendra!

I LOVE the way you dress with class ... I'm glad you found a good HUSBAND... You have a lot of knowledge...

[@BehindtheBrand]

;)

[@brucel.2919]

this is because of one thing, she is a talent. some people just have it in them by nature! they are visionary individuals with taste and class. they see things most others just don't, they move with times sometimes a little ahead of times. they see the need and desire in people, they are people-oriented and experience has made them even more polished and cultured to be appealing to the masses.

[@shesontop]

Love any video about a successful woman. So motivating. Keep them coming!

[@BehindtheBrand]

Thanks, yes, agree we need more stories about successful females. Kendra is the real deal: talented, smart and one of most sincerely nicest people I've interviewed on this channel.

[@QuantumManifestQueen]

We should collab. I have a pool of coaches and healers that I can share with you both. Amazing! 😘🙌

[@arielle5389]

This was so inspirational! I love the jewelry by Kendra Scott so it was great to take a look at the journey that led to her success. It's amazing to see how after 16 YEARS she finally gets awarded Breakthrough Designer of the Year... What a great example of the importance of patience (in the long run) and tenacity (in the short term, day-to-day grind). Thanks for another great video Bryan!

[@BehindtheBrand]

Thanks for watching Arielle! Kendra was soooo nice and professional in person. I was impressed on many levels...

[@wiliammelgar3112]

Española

[@kendrakroll]

I love her. she is amazing, and inspiring for sure! I've got her same first name...and have been working on a patented accessory line for 13+ yrs...no doubt you've never heard of PortaPocket, but we just sent Kendra a sample to see if she might have interest in partnering w/us. Xing fingers she'll see the value of what we do and how we can empower fellow females everywhere... xox (if you'd like, google our name to see what we're about )

Wooooow I love the fact that Mrs Kendra said I am a mom first.That's why I stopped my career as a beauty therapist when I had my first baby as both was not allowed If only the whole wide world created jobs like this for mom's I dreamt of working in such an environment as Kendra but thought it does not exsists only to finally see somewhere some phenomenal lady is having a dream job environment for ladies esp moms.

[@BehindtheBrand]

She's a BOSS

The thing I was most excited to hear about was: Where did the Investors suddenly show up from? That was a big build up and I would like to understand that part of her success. For an entrepreneur watching, that was one of the top 2 or 3 bits of vital information.

I have 3 indian employees working for free and we have nothing to sell but we are all keen to be a startup lol I'm trying to figure out a vision for the company but I don't understand the product enough so i'm studying everyday and trying to make business connections. Kendra has been through it and know's her stuff, hopefully I can be as successful in the Cloud Computing space as i know it will be the future of Computing.

So you're a billion dollar fashion brand loved globally, huh? How about paying musicIans you hire to play at your events? How about allowing them compensation?Allowing them at least a tip jar? How about allowing them to play their music instead of only your version of "popular tunes?" HOW ABOUT RESPECTING ARTISTS? Your recent post sickened me, and your non-apology retraction made it even more apparent how you feel about artists. How dare you?!
