Hey there!

Marie Kondo first shot to fame after publishing a bestselling guide to minimalist living, The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up. Her signature "KonMari" method of organizing has since gained a huge following, inspired product lines, and even become the focus of a popular new Netflix show.

Kondo's methodology encourages people to declutter their spaces by giving up possessions that don't "spark joy", and her endorsement of less-is-more thinking is perfectly timed. Trend Hunter has spotted a rise in minimalism across multiple industries, ranging from food, to fashion, to fitness and beyond.

How can your business take a cue from the minimalist movement? Whether it's by simplifying your retail store or streamlining your product messaging, it might just be the key to your next big idea.

Read on for more inspiration!
