TYB In The Media

Ty Haney - Co-Founder & CEO, Try Your Best

Try Your Best (TYB) swaps Instagram for Web3 to connect brands and customers

The Web3 venture takes Ty Haney’s learnings from Outdoor Voices to create avenues for brands and consumers to connect directly — and reward the latter for engagement — while removing the complexities of blockchain tech.

To Ty Haney, community building is at the heart of brand success. She’s using what she learned as the founder of activewear brand Outdoor Voices to test this theory with her new Web3 on-chain loyalty and community management platform Try Your Best (TYB), which uses blockchain technology to strengthen the relationship between brand and customer.

TYB powers The Outset's Member Community

“If we can get customers to make repeat purchases and tell their friends, that’s where the real lifetime value is,” Scarlett Johansson, Co-Founder of The Outset told Fast Company.

TYB is powering The Outset's community of Insiders to do just that. Scarlett invited members to join in with a personalized video!

On TYB, members get access to The Outset team (yes, Scarjo included) & can contribute to the brand by making UGC, providing product feedback & sharing reviews. In return, participants earn rewards that redeem for perks on The Outset's website.

Through our platform, brands like The Outset can action, reward & measure their community, all while having ownership over the channel.

It's a win-win, where community engagement pays off for fans & brands. Brands on TYB find they have 6.5%  higher LTV amongst TYB members vs non-TYB members

In the words of The Outset co-founder & CEO Kate Foster Lengyel "We are excited to partner with TYB to deepen our connection with our most passionate community members. 
We look forward to learning from them and having a little fun along the way."

Athleisure icon Ty Haney Raises $9.8M in funding for TYB

Outdoor Voices founder Ty Haney made a name for herself by making sportswear the hottest trend among non-athletes. Now, the 33-year-old entrepreneur is betting she can bring together another underrated duo — consumer brands and crypto.

Haney joined TechCrunch’s Chain Reaction podcast this week to talk about her latest venture, Try Your Best (TYB). The startup uses blockchain technology to help brands build customer loyalty without having to rely on buying up pricey ads on third-party social media platforms, Haney explained.

Figlia Partners with TYB: Using Web3 to Build a Community Around Non-Alcoholic Beverages

Users will be able to access Figlia's world on TYB by obtaining a free digital collectible, a play on the infamous Coors Light ad. The collectibles will allow users to join the chat, view challenges, and receive event invitations.

“Token-gating is the next frontier of loyalty and buyer engagement, and we’re thrilled to see TYB, founded by a team that has built multiple brands themselves, come to life for merchants everywhere.”

— Alex Danco, Director of Product at Shopify
