About

Candid Founders

We’re a Faire growth agency dedicated to helping brands thrive on Faire wholesale marketplace—and beyond. With a deep understanding of the platform and the wholesale landscape, we work closely with businesses to enhance their presence, increase sales, and scale sustainably.

Our Values

Founder First
We’re brand owners and business builders ourselves. That means we treat your brand like it’s our own — giving only the advice we’d take, and showing up as long-term partners, not short-term salespeople.
Radical Candor
We don’t sugarcoat. If it’s not a fit, we’ll say so. If we believe in your growth, we’ll go all in. We’re radically honest, open-source with our knowledge, and generous with what we know — for our clients and our YouTube community alike.
Creative & Commercial
We bring strategy, creativity, and financial clarity under one roof. That means smarter decisions, sharper execution, and holistic leadership across every opportunity and challenge your brand faces.

Operations

Andy

Andy runs our operations here at Candid Founders. You will speak with him directly for calls, diving into his 10+ years of experience in Finance and Accounting, as well as his 15+ years in marketing in start-ups. Andy manages the team here at Candid Founders, so you get the benefit of a team of experts working for you without the hassle of people management - leave that to us!

"I know what I want from a partner, and it’s to have complete transparency with the work being done on my business, and why. That’s what we will give you - complete accountability for the work we do for you, strategic vision above and beyond the day to day operations of Faire, and a clear path to growth for your business. If we don’t think we can help you, we won’t work with you, simple as. So book a call with me today and we can discuss the future of your brand"

Andrew Kemp, Co-founder

Content and Marketing

Lucy

Lucy is head of content and marketing for Candid Founders. If you found us via Youtube you will have heard from her already! Lucy has been running her own product business for 7 years, and comes from a customer experience background before that. A lot of the creativity and marketing ideas for our brands come from Lucy, so she brings this to the table for our clients by focussing on their marketing calendars and brand identity.

"I love other people’s businesses, they are fascinating to me. My number one goal when working with a client is that I can add value. Our amazing team will be working to grow your Faire account on a daily basis - emails, lead generation, customer segmentation and more, everything you need to make the Faire algorithm work in your favour. I layer on top of this and look to see where we can add value beyond the day to day. What trends should your brand be following? What marketing moments can we add to your calendar? This is a really exciting level within a business that a lot of busy founders usually don’t have time for!"

Lucy Jeffrey, Co-Founder
