Stellar @9operators episode with @RomanEcom @Seanfrank @mbertulli Especially interesting to think about the AI-first, ultra-lean OPEX brands that are scaling insanely fast — I've seen a few examples of this myself over the last few months and it's been wild to see Roman's take on sub-5% OPEX for a brand doing $100M/year isn't surprising but it still likely very aggressive compared to where most brands operate today Interesting to hear some brands finding 6-figure spend a day success on AppLovin. AppLovin being 5% to 10% of spend is more the norm from what I've also heard from others Really liked thinking about this quote from @Seanfrank: "The end state of commerce is whoever can spend the most on attention will win... and that is why OPEX is being cut... and you're removing warehouses... you're removing creators... every single dollar needs to go to marketing" Highly recommend listening to this episode. youtube.com/watch?v=lxWPHS…

This might piss some of you off but I'm going to say it anyway... I think Facebook ads has made most of us really bad marketers. There's been such an insane focus on making this one platform work (I get why...truly), that many people have forgotten what marketing actually is. Instead of working on original ideas that serve our customers, we major in the minors (i.e. - iterating on shitty creative). I think AI is going to force us all to become better marketers over the long haul. In the short term, it probably means more slop. But long term...I'm bullish. I think Sunil is a breath of fresh air in the DTC community. He focuses on the basics. Does a lot of things most of us would never consider because they are hard (ahem - live tv shopping). He runs a massive company in a lot of markets. He employees thousands. He gives so much back to the causes he cares about (feeding kids). And he's been doing it for decades. Something we can all aspire to be. Just...better.

I went back on the Operators Pod to talk about: - Why I paused buying companies - Where I think eCom is headed - What I learned from my semi-annual event - How to scale $APP to $100K+++ a day - Where Quince Logistics is going (9 figure year 1) - Why I started a packaging business called Petra Spark (8 figure run rate pipeline) - Where AI is taking eCommerce A lot of topics that I have not talked about on other Pods. I’ll answer any questions in the YouTube comment section - just leave them there

Roman is one of the few people I will always make time for. I have never had a conversation with him where I didn’t learn something.

Some podcasts beat us on packaging. Some on production quality and polish. Nobody on content quality and value. (Round 2 of me trying to be less Canadian)
