About Melissa Hauser
I build and scale emerging consumer brands at pivotal moments of growth. My work sits at the intersection of full P&L leadership, commercial acceleration, and organizational build-out — often within founder-led natural and wellness companies preparing for their next phase of scale. Currently, I serve as President, North America for Minor Figures, leading a fully remote organization with responsibility for regional strategy, operations, and market expansion. My focus has been on strengthening the business for long-term performance — aligning commercial strategy, team structure, and operational execution to support sustainable growth. Earlier roles across Vega, Coca-Cola’s Venturing & Emerging Brands, and Rowdy Mermaid shaped my end-to-end perspective on the brand lifecycle — from early-stage expansion through national distribution and strategic acquisition environments. What I’m known for- Partnering closely with founders and investors to translate vision into scalable execution - Building revenue engines that balance growth with profitability - Professionalizing teams and systems without losing entrepreneurial energy - Leading through inflection points: expansion, turnaround, and platform build-outI’m especially energized by opportunities to help emerging natural, organic, and wellness brands evolve into multi-brand platforms or prepare for their next stage of growth.
