Arjun P.
Founder, D2C Brand

“I liked that it’s short and direct. Chapter 3 gave me a practical way to bake sustainability into product decisions without slowing the team down. The ‘no fluff’ approach is real—straight to frameworks and steps.”

Maya R.

“The marketing chapter is the best part for teams that worry about greenwashing. It explains how to communicate sustainable value responsibly and keep claims credible. The knowledge checks made it easy to confirm the team actually understood the basics.”

Daniel S.
Product Marketing Lead, SaaS

“Chapter 5 helped me think about measurement in a way that’s realistic for products—not perfect reporting, but practical signals and progress. It gave me language to align product, marketing, and ops on what we’ll track and how we’ll improve over time.”
