Here are three differences between selling DTC vs. retail, and which one you should choose: Reach:

Retail products may have greater visibility and reach, while DTC may require more effort to drive traffic to the company's website.

Email #2: “Are you sure you don’t want it? How about 25% off?” (buy our shit)

Email #3: “YOUR DISCOUNT IS EXPIRING!” (buy our shit)

The hardest part of growing rapidly is sustaining a great culture.

Core to that is ensuring that you bring in "givers" vs "takers".

Takers: self-serving in the interactions, it's all about "what can you do for me".

Givers: approach most interactions asking "what can I do for you".
