After diving deeper into SEO and digital marketing for several years, he joined BlenderBottle, which was then purely retail-focused. Over five to six years, he built the DTC arm of the company and doubled its online sales annually for six years, a feat he attributes to 'consistency.' He also played a key role in broadening the brand's appeal from a gym-only demographic to a wider audience with fun, monthly color launches — a strategy that continues to pay dividends today.
Chase also dives into tales from his early days of 'cookie-stuffing' and monetizing affiliate programs, discussing how these experiences have shaped the values he and his team adheres to today: the belief that nothing is impossible but that it will come at a cost, whether in time, money, or other resources.

Chad discusses learning to identify good partners, understanding customer needs, and developing solutions to meet those needs. He's committed to doing whatever he can to make life easier for others and improving the world, even if just a little.
