The company's products include made-to-order superfood smoothies, acai bowls, and cold-pressed juice. Their franchise division is on pace to have over 100 stores open by the end of 2023.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
👉 Ross explores the topic of customer service and the lessons learned from working in the fitness industry. He emphasizes the importance of treating customers as guests and delivering a warm, friendly, and engaging experience. Ross highlights examples of good hospitality displayed by Pure Green franchise partners, such as going above and beyond to return a customer's lost keys or including handwritten cards with delivery orders.
👉 Darshan and Ross discuss the principles of entrepreneurial success highlighted in Ross's book, The Success Formula. They emphasize the importance of taking action and not getting caught up in analysis paralysis. Ross believes that what holds people back is the inability to take action. His advice is simple: “Just take the action and you can always recalibrate afterwards.” He also highlights the power of physiology and tonality in effective communication.
👉 Ross stresses the importance of hiring ‘doers’. It’s vital that organizations hire people with integrity that do what they say they’re going to do. Ross prefers employees that are high performers, and “get stuck into the daily grind”. Without this urgency, Ross says it’s likely that they wouldn’t be the right cultural fit at Pure Green.
