@mbertulli How about a larger size for cat litter? Wife (notice I didn't say "we" 😂) has been using plastic bags for that shit (literally) forever... May not fit under the barxby brand if solely focused on dogs but the need is there.

We just launched fully biodegradable poop bags. Yah...dog poop...sexy stuff! Most alternatives result in micro-plastics upon breakdown. Not ours! -> barxby.com

@soundslikecanoe I wouldn't import dropship orders into Shopify itself but rather into your OMS. From there it can feed into 3PL, ERP/accounting, etc. Think of it as hub and spoke systems architecture, Ecommerce platform is a spoke, dropship is a spoke, POS, etc. All feed into the hub.

Is anybody aware of a solid approach to offering dropshipping from your Shopify store? We've had multiple publishers approach us over the years wanting to do this, but we've always said no due to the backend challenges. My thought is to upload a CSV via an order importer app.

@mbertulli Wow - looks amazing well done Matt and team. Gonna need to pick your brain on your crowdfunding strategies!

Tomorrow is Pela's biggest launch ever...kind of freaking out (nerves). Almost 3 years of development to bring this product to life. Check it out --> get.meetlomi.com

@BenMarks Congrats Ben on a magnificent run. I'll never forget that cover letter - it was one of the first, and definitely one of the best that I've seen since. I for one am not surprised of what you've accomplished. Proud of you bro!

Some news from my side: making room for the next chapter. 🧡 bhmarks.com/blog/next-chap…

@peter_sheldon @Shopify @amazon Pretty sure you have to give the @shop app permission to read your emails - hence how it knows the @amazon order deliveries

Is it just me or does anyone else find it strange that @Shopify reports when my @amazon deliveries arrive. I thought these two were arch enemies and since when did I give @shopify permission to see my @amazon order data anyway ? #privacyfail

@Julian Consider it cost of experimentation 😉 - every hire you make is based on a thesis - sometimes thesis is right, sometimes wrong - in my testing the "hire superstars" thesis was considerably outperformed by the "hire tomorrow's superstars" thesis. Develop, nurture, cultivate, grow.

@Julian Some of the best superstars I've ever hired, out of hundreds over 10+ years, were "diamonds in the rough" that didn't command "superstar salaries" - in fact, those that looked like superstars during recruitment that we paid like superstars underperformed against these hires.

@Julian All of them were rewarded as they untapped their potential accordingly (often salaries jumped 2-3x over a few years) but based on my experience I'd take chances on diamonds in the rough than people that might look like superstars up front and result in a much bigger $ to find out

@BenMarks @slkra @ericvhileman @ecommerceaholic @richbaik Can we officially adopt a power-couple name now and name our child something like "Butterfly Rain"?

@slkra @ericvhileman @ecommerceaholic @richbaik That looks more like @kpe and I had a baby together.... 😬

My daughter's had this custom bobble head made for me. I love how it looks like it knows something I don't.

@jprovisor You were second on my list to call, Jon 😉

@kpe Call Guidance to help you create that d2c brand!

Excited to (finally) announce that after some time off, and deep contemplation on the beach, I'm switching gears to build up a new D2C brand. I can only hope to achieve the same success as the last 12 years have brought. A new day, a new dawn.

@mattladydigital @mbertulli @jaimeschmidt @mrsharma @aditi_sf @andrewjfaris @bzises @digitallynativ @web @chriscantino @soundslikecanoe @ryan_caldbeck Thanks @mattladydigital - this one made me lol "change your Twitter bio to 'founder'" 🤣

@mbertulli @kpe @jaimeschmidt @mrsharma @aditi_sf @andrewjfaris @bzises @digitallynativ @web @chriscantino @soundslikecanoe @ryan_caldbeck -production, see if you can get negotiate more friendly terms different terms -biz credit card -biz bank account -some self financial tracker (Xero, quickbooks) or accounting service (bean ninja, pilot, etc) -sales tax -change your Twitter bio to 'founder'

I've started to map out all of the activities needed to launch my brand into a Gantt, any others that have done this care to share? @jaimeschmidt @mbertulli @mrsharma @aditi_sf @andrewjfaris @bzises @digitallynativ @web @chriscantino @soundslikecanoe @ryan_caldbeck

@andrewjfaris @jaimeschmidt @mbertulli @mrsharma @aditi_sf @bzises @digitallynativ @web @chriscantino @soundslikecanoe @ryan_caldbeck Thanks Andrew. I'm starting from the launch and working backwards... I need a brand, product, content, website, fulfillment, service, marketing - the detail is in every little thing that's needed from ground 0 to launch. After I get it to a point, I'll share it out for feedback.

@kpe @jaimeschmidt @mbertulli @mrsharma @aditi_sf @bzises @digitallynativ @web @chriscantino @soundslikecanoe @ryan_caldbeck Yeah I don't have a Gantt chart, but some day I should really put these kinds of things together and share it. I don't have a good version of that now though really.

@jbillingsley Thanks Jason - we've got a pretty strong thesis and I'm ready for a new, different journey!

@kpe Have at 'er. It's fun switching sides.

@mbertulli @jaimeschmidt @mrsharma @aditi_sf @andrewjfaris @bzises @digitallynativ @web @chriscantino @soundslikecanoe @ryan_caldbeck Well my head is starting to spin thinking of all the things I need to get done in order to launch 🥴. Gantt chart or not - just need something to map out all of the activities I need to do leading up to launch.

@kpe @jaimeschmidt @mrsharma @aditi_sf @andrewjfaris @bzises @digitallynativ @web @chriscantino @soundslikecanoe @ryan_caldbeck That's way too organized for me :)

On that note, I've started to subscribe to more content, and people, focused on building D2C brands - always open to more recommendations if you have any. Others have paved the way and I have lots of new things to learn.

@Quentalto @blueacornici Don't play games Quentin - we all know where that "taco" falls on the list of swag. Thanks for waking me up from my Twitter slumber though 🥱

Quick shoutout to @kpe & @blueacornici for my #TechTaco from IRCE 2017(?). Still going strong & my only swag item from that year left. #PeopleMockedTheTaco
