How This Velvet Taco Marketing VP Is Bringing In The Bold

Velvet Taco's Brooke Perry on blind fearlessness, making waves, and creating a "band of badasses."

I've had the opportunity to connect with and learn from executives of major brands at MediaPost's Insider Summits. In the process I've discovered some truly impressive women -- not only for the work they do, but their stories behind the scenes. With Brand Insider: BTS, I get to pull back the curtain on some of the most influential women marketers as they talk about their path to success: the twists and turns, obstacles, inspirations and the valuable lessons learned along the way. 

What happens when someone sees potential in you before you see it yourself? For Brooke Perry, that moment changed everything. Velvet Taco’s VP of Marketing shares how a pivotal mentor shaped her journey, and the bold advice that fueled her career: “If you’re 80% sure, just do it.” In this episode of Brand Insider: BTS, Brooke talks to Lisa Singer about embracing failure, speaking up-- even when it’s uncomfortable-- and creating a culture where being rebellious is all in a day's work. She also shares her personal take on balancing big career goals with even bigger life changes-- like becoming a first-time Mom! Watch the full conversation in the video above.
