Building a Global Community Around Ethical Shopping and Fair Trade Goods

Liza Moiseeva and Her Mission-Driven Company GlobeIn Open Doors and Build Connections for Remarkable Artisans Worldwide

Liza Moiseeva is the co-founder and CMO of GlobeIn, a fair trade subscription box and ethical online marketplace showcasing creations by artisans around the world.

With GlobeIn, Moiseeva has managed to create tremendous impact through building a deeply connected community around the brand. From model to marketing, her business works to give opportunity to artisan groups globally and build deep connections with mindful digital consumers who appreciate their work. GlobeIn strives to empower and support these artists, some of whose art forms are rapidly vanishing, providing a path for them to preserve their art and to thrive, find success, and take care of themselves, their families, and their communities.

As a talented entrepreneur with a history in the nonprofit and social good sector, Moiseeva attributes much of her success to the power of the type of community building she has worked hard to infuse into GlobeIn. From running meetups with like-minded people to interactive Facebook Lives, a strong community has always been at the heart of Moiseeva’s achievements.

In this episode of the Grow Ensemble podcast, we get to hear about GlobeIn’s origin story, Moiseeva’s journey in the social good space, and her invigorating perspective on community and growth through the context of GlobeIn. Moiseeva also dives in and breaks down the fundamentals she believes has been key to GlobeIn’s success, having managed to navigate a competitive industry while still promoting sustainable consumption, build a network of passionate and engaged customers, and create powerful, lasting change for artisan groups around the world.
