Ep. 171 - Lindsay McCormick - Bite Toothpaste Bits
Lindsay is the CEO and Co-Founder of Bites Toothpaste Bits.Kick the tube with Bite Toothpaste Bits to help end the one billion toothpaste tubes entering landfill & oceans each year.
She's reinventing toothpaste because it's something we put into our bodies by brushing it into our gums and mouths twice a day, every single day of our lives.
Flip the label on your typical toothpaste tube and it???s full of chemicals, fillers and unnecessary ingredients ??? all packaged in plastic that will inevitably end up in a landfill.
These tubes are thrown out every year filled with ingredients like sodium lauryl sulfate, triclosan and artificial dyes and preservatives that are harmful to our health.
Lindsay built Bite to provide a healthier, more sustainable toothpaste.

We went in with a number that worked and had shown constant growth. After leaving without a deal and seeing that Mark actually defended our decision not to take the deal — that made me even a bigger fan of Mark Cuban."
