Jump, then think.

How this franchise mogul found herself again after epic career success through a clear brand message.

Alli Webb is an insatiable entrepreneur and the co-founder of many ventures. Most notably, she founded Drybar—the whimsical salon that made blowouts accessible and budget-friendly—in 2010 in Brentwood, CA. After scaling to 150+ locations and launching a product line, Alli and her partners sold Drybar to focus attention on new ventures. 

She has since co-founded Squeeze—a way better massage experience, Okay Humans—the future of face-to-face talk therapy, and Beckett & Quill—a high-end, not high-spend jewelry line. 

And, there was no telling what she’s got up her sleeve next.

Alli came to SimplyBe. with a clear hunger for the next step in her career, but a lack of clarity around what she ultimately wanted to be known for. 

Our goal then, was to create a platform to align her experience, passions and influence to positively impact and grow her audience and future businesses. We set out with the goal of transforming Alli from “Founder of Drybar” to a Thought Leader of the next generation.

You have all the pieces, now make them tell a story.

Through SimplyBe.’s Thought Leader Program, we redefined the Alli Webb brand, crystalizing a personal brand message that could stand on its own. In synthesizing Alli’s story, we realized that what all of Alli’s ventures have in common—beyond Alli herself—is that they opt to make something we all need (or want)—blowouts, massages, therapy, little luxuries—more within reach. In this sense, each endeavor also reflects what Alli represents on a more personal level as a stay-at-home-mom turned mogul—she makes launching a business, following a dream, or frankly “just doing the damn thing”… within reach. 

Something any woman can do, as long as she’s willing to jump. And so, Alli’s new motto, “Jump, then think,” was born.

Finally, as her primary audiences across her ventures are on Instagram, our content strategy revolved around creating strategic content—both static and video—to support and promote her brand and businesses on this channel. For consistency in her new brand, our team also created a cohesive brand aesthetic in order to visually tie her story together across the platform through her video, feed and stories. 

As someone who has worked with tons of PR and Marketing firms, SimplyBe. has far exceeded my expectations in a myriad of ways. Their approach is unique and extremely effective. I continue to be impressed with not only the consistent work and results they deliver, but also the pliable nature of my entire team. Their seamless ability to effortlessly shift gears when needed, is impressive and comforting.

Over just three months, Alli saw a 103% increase in accounts engaged on her Instagram. Additionally, with her new brand message in mind, and through strategic content, we trained her existing audience to expect a “new” kind of content from Alli Webb—resulting in some of her top performing posts to date.

Alli 2.0 was what her audiences—new and old—were craving. Alli Webb is having the conversations that no one else is having to give our next generation of entrepreneurs and leaders truth, wisdom, and confidence—she’s giving young leaders everywhere permission to jump.
