  • Resumen

  • Welcome back to another exciting episode of EYL! In this episode, your hosts Rashad Bilal and Troy Millings sit down with the inspiring Donae Burston, the brilliant mind behind one of the fastest-growing rosé brands. Ever wondered about the complicated dynamics of celebrity-owned brands in the spirits industry? Or the challenges and triumphs of running a black-owned business in a traditionally white-dominated sector? This episode offers a deep dive into these topics and much more.Starting off with a thought-provoking discussion, Rashad questions whether celebrity brands hold less credibility in the spirit world. Donae offers his candid perspective, explaining how the "cookie cutter approach" of slapping a celebrity name on a product isn’t always a guaranteed formula for success. The conversation then steers towards the racial undertones in the branding of luxury goods. Certain challenges arise when a black entrepreneur puts his name and face on a product. Donae reveals how his PR team convinced him that being visible as a black owner was crucial, despite the risk of the brand being pigeonholed.Donae, who aims to make his rosé brand the number one in the world, rather than just the top black-owned rosé, dives into the nitty-gritty of what it takes to build a luxury brand. He underlines the importance of making sure the product feels and looks luxurious, comparable to the best in the industry. This desire extends beyond rosé to white and red wines, showing his broader vision for brand expansion.Another compelling segment revolves around team-building and operational strategy. Donae shares that his team consists of only four internal members, highlighting a lean, outsourced approach to manage cash flow effectively while bringing in top-tier talent on a project basis. He describes frequent collaborations through group chats for tasks ranging from label design to Instagram captions, ensuring every detail reflects the brand's luxurious ethos.Ever wondered how much time an entrepreneur like Donae dedicates to his venture? He confesses that the rosé business consumes most of his day, emphasizing the importance of focus when you're at a critical juncture in your business journey. Additionally, he reveals that now his biggest competitors are the companies he once worked for, illustrating a full-circle moment in his career.Donae also touches upon the occasional negative feedback from former colleagues and competitors, particularly about the role Jay-Z played in his previous work. Yet, this doesn’t deter him; rather, it fuels his ambition to outshine them with a younger, cooler, and high-quality rosé.This episode is packed with wisdom on navigating the complexities of branding, especially when racial and celebrity elements come into play. Donae's journey is a testament to resilience and a clear vision, attributes that are essential for any budding entrepreneur.Don't miss this enlightening conversation that balances business acumen with social insight.
