Building Puresport: Community, Brand & Consumer Connection with Daniel Temm

October 7, 2026

“Safe, connected and capable.”

On this week’s episode of The FODcast, Daniel Temm, CEO of Puresport explains the three feelings the brand wants customers to experience when they engage with the business.

It’s a fascinating discussion around what modern consumer brands need to become beyond simply “selling products”.

Tim and Daniel discuss:

  • Building a brand in one of the world’s most crowded categories
  • Why community became a growth engine for Puresport
  • The move from startup experimentation to scale-up execution
  • The realities of Amazon growth and omnichannel retail
  • Why many founders struggle with prioritisation
  • The importance of simplicity, storytelling and emotional connection

There’s also an honest conversation around leadership pressure, mentorship and how rapidly growing businesses force founders to constantly evolve.

A really strong episode for anyone interested in modern ecommerce, brand building and scaling consumer businesses.
