À propos de cet audio

 What if telling customers not to buy is the smartest growth move you can make? In this episode of Marginally Better, Joe Taylor, Jr. explores the Repair Renaissance—from Patagonia’s “Don’t Buy This Jacket” ethos and Minnesota’s nation-leading right-to-repair law to the global rise of Repair Cafés saving millions of pounds from landfills. We unpack how durability becomes a moat (hello, Vitamix and Le Creuset), why the “IKEA effect” proves the right kind of friction builds loyalty, and how AI is reshaping the real jobs of designers and developers—from pixel pushers to problem framers. If you care about circular economy wins, customer retention, and products that outlive trends, this one’s for you.
