StyleHaul was known for its large-scale influencer and paid media campaigns for major beauty brands and retailers, such as Sephora, Maybelline, and Walgreens,[1] as well as for its high-profile talent network, which has included creators like Zoella,[3] Ashley Tisdale,[4] Chloe Lukasiak[5] and Joey Graceffa.[6]
In 2018, StyleHaul founder and CEO Stephanie Horbaczewski left the company in order to launch an artificial intelligence startup, Vody, alongside former StyleHaul Chief Technology Officer, Jeremy Houghton.[7] In 2019, StyleHaul shuttered operations, which coincided with the arrest and guilty plea of Dennis Blieden, 29, a former StyleHaul executive and professional poker player who embezzled $22 million from the company to pay his poker debts, personal debts and bad investments in cryptocurrencies.[8]
