This weeks Professional Development Workshop took place at Cloud Foundation, where we were seated before the ever hardworking Karmaloop team. We were introduced to Dennis Todisco who spoke first. He filled us in with details on Karmaloop like who exactly they are, what they do, and how they came about to be who they are today. He spoke about Greg Selkoe’s story and showed us a clip of Greg actually speaking about his personal story. It was a great look into the logistics of running a major part of the Global Concrete Culture. There was a subtle emphasis on how much hard work was really put into the company along with all of the fun experiences. Another thing that was spoken about was the uprising of Karmaloop. We learned about who helped and how they helped which was another great inside look into the company because, as Greg stated ,it was not easy and they faced many burdens. Next Leandrew Robins and Yaw Owusu spoke about PLNDR, a website branched off of Karmaloop. PLNDR is a website for members only (upon sign up) to buy products from upcoming brands like Crooks and Castles, Crica, Gravis, and many more. The website is great for up and coming brands to get out to the rapidly growing culture and promising consumers. Then they began to explain how the website looks and what they feature which was something unique. Overall, it was a great workshop!
