The Business of Product Development, featuring Erno Laszlo Chief Product Officer Patricia Schuffe...

Описание: There is more to cosmetic product development than in-the-lab innovation. Teams that create and reformulate are responsible for not only the efficacy, experience, and safety of a product but also profitability, which depends upon cost of goods—from ingredients to packaging and beyond—as well as marketing, customer acquisition, and more. 


 


This week on the CosmoFactory podcast, we learn about the business complexities of product development. Or guest is Patricia Schuffenhauer, Chief Product Officer at Erno Laszlo. The nearly 100-year-old skincare brand has a longstanding legacy in the US market; after first launching in Hungary, Dr. Lazslo moved his brand to New York City in 1939. And, more recently, the company expanded into China in 2014.
