Almost exactly a year ago, Nasrin Jafari recorded my first ever Opening The Books podcast episode. A few months after that, she hired me and my team as her agency.
So how has it gone since that first conversation?
On this episode of The Andrew Faris Podcast, Nasrin is back to talk about the highs, lows, and what she (and I) have learned on the way to doubling her fashion brand's business.
