About Me
I help ambitious consumer brands drive revenue and growth across every channel from retail to DTC to international expansion
🗂️ Before teaming up…
Bragi was a startup tech innovator that raised over $3M through crowdfunding platforms alone, led by a management team with deep roots in software and development.
After selling more than 300,000 units of their original Dash product to early adopters in Asia and the US, Bragi launched the Dash Pro - their second-generation earbuds - with a new focus on Europe and a broader consumer base.
With limited marketing budgets, minimal brand awareness, and no retail presence in key markets, they faced the challenge of rapidly validating product-market fit and positioning the Dash Pro in the fast-emerging true wireless category.
