BlueMercury: Marla and Barry Beck

I loved learning how a business that I frequent for skin and hair products got started.  How did the founders decide to build shop #1?  How and why did it grow to the point where Blue Mercury’s are seemingly everywhere?  You will learn the answers to these questions and much more in this HIBT podcast with Guy Raz.  The founders started off as business acquaintances, then business partners and ultimately life partners so the sub-plot is fascinating as well.  I had no idea how Sephora and BlueMercury differed from each other until I heard this episode nor who was first to market.
