Beauty is a $650 billion global industry — and it's still largely misunderstood. Off the Shelf with Susannah Dellinger goes beyond the product and into the power: the economics, the culture, the relationships, and the decisions that shape who wins and who doesn't. For beauty founders, executives, and anyone who knows this industry is worth taking seriously.

This show is for beauty founders, brand leaders, retail experts, and industry insiders who understand that beauty is not just creative, it’s strategic, operational, and deeply human.

If you have a sharp point of view and real experience inside the industry, we’d love to hear from you.

What We’re Looking For

We feature guests who can speak to:

  • Building and scaling beauty brands

  • Retail strategy (Sephora, Ulta, Bluemercury, Nordstrom, etc.)

  • The realities of in-store performance and field teams

  • The business behind product development and distribution

  • Cultural influence and representation in beauty

  • The financial and operational side of growth

  • What actually drives sell-through, not just shelf placement

We are not looking for surface-level conversations or product promotion.
We are looking for insight, experience, and perspective.

Final Note

We review every application carefully. If there’s alignment, our team will reach out with next steps.

This podcast is built on substance, not noise.
We’re excited to feature voices who are helping shape what beauty looks like next.
