The Nod Company, Inc.
Maker Introduction
I was also an ordinary salaried worker at first.
I thought going to college and getting a job was everything, without any clear goals.
By chance, I entered the cosmetics industry, and spent my twenties working overtime and learning intensely.
And I lost 200 million won in my first startup.
I truly felt like I had hit rock bottom. But that failure made me stronger, and I studied like crazy, determined to do it right this time.
That's when I realized. Branding is everything.
Even the same product can be completely transformed through branding. The price, customer response, and sales—everything changed.
I personally experienced that just proper branding can completely change the game.
The result is what you see now.
Achieved over 160 million won in cumulative funding on Wadiz
Monthly sales over 70 million won, net profit 20~25%
CEO of The Node Company, 16 years of brand experience
Operating the oral care brand 'GluGlu'
Running the online business community 'Brand Workshop'
Currently running a brand with monthly sales of 70 million won, spending 10 million won per month on advertising, and have succeeded in raising over 160 million won on Wadiz alone.
The most important thing was the realization.
"There are so many people struggling just like me."
People who fail because they don't know the importance of branding and only cling to products or technology. As someone who has experienced both failure and success, I wanted to share the true power of branding with those who are struggling alone just like I was.
A success formula created by someone who has experienced failure.
That’s why it’s more certain, more realistic, and safer.
You only live once—try living with your own real brand.
With this in mind, we have carefully prepared benefits available only on Wadiz.
Reasons to choose Wadiz
I don’t see this class as simply a ‘teaching lecture’,
but as an ‘experience of changing together,’ and I have prepared it with that in mind.
When I first started on the path of brand entrepreneurship, I felt extremely lonely and lost.
If even one person had given me direction by saying, “This is how you do it,” I could have created my brand faster and with fewer mistakes... I always felt that regret.
So now,
I wanted to become a practical guidepost for those who dream of starting a business but feel lost, just like I once did.
In particular, Wadiz was very attractive to me because it is not just a funding platform, but a ‘starting point for brands’ that supports new attempts together. I felt it was a space where I could genuinely connect with supporters.
I chose Wadiz because I wanted to share the excitement of students truly starting and transforming their own brands, not just running a ‘profitable class.’
Future use of funding
The valuable funds raised through this campaign will be invested entirely in developing higher-quality educational content and upgrading brand execution tools, without wasting a single penny.
First, we plan to add and remaster lecture content,
and strengthen the case-based workbook to help students better understand practical work.
Additionally, some of the funds will be used to upgrade templates to improve the user convenience and design quality of the brand planning toolkit and automation tools currently provided.
Lastly, a portion of the budget will be allocated to building a dedicated community and real-time feedback system to enable ongoing learning and networking even after the class ends.
The funds will be thoroughly reinvested to ensure this class becomes not just an online lecture, but an actionable program that actually creates real brands.
