Every startup faces dark days, where the founder wakes up and finds it difficult to continue. A brand with a purpose has the tenacity and strength to face the dark days. The passion for the purpose is what keeps any entrepreneur motivated to pull together on difficult days. The purpose is a superpower strength that gives any organisation tenacity. 

Purpose not only helps a brand make good business decisions, but it also helps a brand find allies. Business and profits are no longer the only things that matter to any stakeholders. Investors, customers and talented employees are all looking for a business they can buy into.
