"The TikTok news isnt pretty for DTC brands. It may change the advertising and acquisition landscape for good. Here are [--] DTC-specific thoughts on what the ban would mean: 1) Meta Ads Will Get More Expensive This is purely a supply-and-demand issue. The ad dollars being spent on TikTok will have to be directed somewhere. Meta is currently the only logical answer. When demand shoots up like that ad costs will too. 2) Brands Relying on TikTok Shop are in Trouble TikTok Shop was a strong driver (the strongest in some cases) for many brands.

"After scaling and selling multiple e-commerce brands I often get asked what helps or hurts brands exit multiples. Here are the two most significant factors (from personal experience and talking to others): 1) Whether Youre Omni-channel or Not If you only sell on either Amazon or Shopify your valuation will be the lowest. If you sell on Amazon AND Shopify your valuation will be slightly higher. If you sell on Amazon Shopify and retail stores your valuation will be the highest. For the record you really just need some initial traction with retail. Most DTC brands rightfully try to perfect"

"When I worked at Airbnb our CEO Brian Chesky taught us a CRO lesson directly applicable to DTC. Back then Booking(.)com was a main competitor of ours.

Today: There are almost-perfect out-of-the-box site templates AI can do most of your product photography You can white-label products instantly Translation: The barrier to entry has been going down and will continue to decrease over time.

"Attribution tools are overkill for 90% of DTC brands. Heres the fact nobody seems to consider: To this day attribution is still unsolved. Yes certain brands are getting close and thats great.

The fact that its [----] and theres no clear-cut winner of the attribution wars is telling. The data is way too noisy to get an entirely accurate picture.

"$45000 in sales tax for holding too many yard sales Billy and Karen Parrott ran what they claimed were casual yard sales in Mississippi. But these werent your neighbors clean out the garage weekends. They sold fireworks and Christmas trees hosted sales year-round and promoted everything on Facebook. Eventually the state took notice and so did the Department of Revenue. The case went to court where judges reviewed the evidence: - Frequency of sales - Size of inventory - Signage and advertising - Facebook photos that looked more like a pop-up Costco than a garage sale Verdict: not a yard sale."

Every fan wants in. Pajamas havent had this much hype since. ever. Most people leave reality TV to find themselves. Paige left to find better pants. And shes now built a brand with taste insane momentum and fans whod probably buy a Daphne-branded alarm clock if she made one. Huge congrats to Paige and the Daphne Label team - theyve been with Numeral"

"I ignored important advice and had to relearn it the hard way. Heres the story (and a cautionary tale): Six years ago my friend and former Airbnb colleague @gustaf was driving me down to Mountain View to speak at a YC Growth Bootcamp. On that drive he told me something I remember to this day: The misconception with growth is that it doesnt matter if you dont have good retention. It made complete sense. But I still ignored the advice. Instead I started a low-retention business that was essentially a big SEO-hack. It was a jewelry brand. A short while into running it I faced a massive problem:"

The existing solutions in the market doesn't cutthis one time we had to pay $20k in penalty simply because our *sales tax solution* messed up some compliance rules.

"Ive observed two DTC founder Archetypes: 1) Founders obsessed with brand. Youll go to their site and see studio photography and cutesy animations Youll open social apps and see them sponsoring influencers. Youll scroll LinkedIn and see them getting press. Theyre masters of creating buzz. And dont get me wrong thats great. But they often suffer when it comes to performance. These founders are often not great with Facebook ads and are often overly controlling about ad creatives and copy. Even still they get tailwinds because of the brand work theyve put in. 2) Founders who see everything as a"

"DTC snack brands are notoriously hard to scale. Factoring in lower AOVs spoilage and bulky shipping there isnt much room for margin. That said its not impossible. You just need to get creative in how you sell. 1) Obsessed Customer Base Each snack brand I know of that is doing well in DTC appeals to a movement or sentiment extremely well. Keto carnivore low-FODMAP that sort of thing. A lot of this comes down to positioning but the more you can appeal to a hyper-specific consumer segment the more theyll be willing to pay (and the less willing theyll be to look for alternatives). 2) Higher Order"

Here's the truth: You can put a team in place but DTC brands are generally fairly lean. Its all hands on deck all the time if youre an operator. The truth is that protecting your time and only working on high-leverage parts of the business are the only ways youll grow. And in my (biased) opinion outsourcing sales tax filings and management is one of the highest-leverage things you can do. So many DTC"

"Twice this week founders DMd me in full panic. Both were in acquisition talks. Both had millions in uncollected sales tax show up in diligence. Both only realized it when the buyers due diligence team flagged it. That balance doesnt disappear btw. It comes straight out of the founders pocket because it should have been collected from customers in the first place. The worst part is it was completely avoidable. Getting compliant early would have meant: - No massive liability hanging over the deal - No penalties or interest - No late-night scramble while lawyers and bankers wait Sales tax isnt"

Every time you remit sales tax you basically have to navigate portals like this. I say like this because there are [--] states and 190+ countries so of course no two are the same. Thankfully it all boils down to a bunch of data entry and confusing rules to interpret and follow. So to an AI agent (like Numerals) its a breeze. But still even fancy Cisco hold music cant save how annoying this is. And if youre a founder you have to do this hundreds of times. Thanks to our"

"I ignored important advice and had to relearn it the hard way. Heres the story (and a cautionary tale): Six years ago my friend and former Airbnb colleague @gustaf was driving me down to Mountain View to speak at a YC Growth Bootcamp. On that drive he told me something I remember to this day: The misconception with growth is that it doesnt matter if you dont have good retention. It made complete sense. But I still ignored the advice. Instead I started a low-retention business that was essentially a big SEO-hack. It was a jewelry brand. A short while into running it I faced a massive problem:"

"One of the biggest issue I faced while running Fling (8-fig DTC brand) was being compliant with sales tax. The existing solutions in the market doesn't cutthis one time we had to pay $20k in penalty simply because our sales tax solution messed up some compliance rules. It became so annoying that I along with @mrkevnliu and @jakeonrails started building @NumeralTax a white-glove SaaS solution for ecom brands to file taxes and stay compliant. When I say white-glove I mean you don't spend more than [--] mins every month worrying about this. LMK if you need me to show how we do this."

"Ive observed two DTC founder Archetypes: 1) Founders obsessed with brand. Youll go to their site and see studio photography and cutesy animations Youll open social apps and see them sponsoring influencers. Youll scroll LinkedIn and see them getting press. Theyre masters of creating buzz. And dont get me wrong thats great. But they often suffer when it comes to performance. These founders are often not great with Facebook ads and are often overly controlling about ad creatives and copy. Even still they get tailwinds because of the brand work theyve put in. 2) Founders who see everything as a"

"DTC snack brands are notoriously hard to scale. Factoring in lower AOVs spoilage and bulky shipping there isnt much room for margin. That said its not impossible. You just need to get creative in how you sell. 1) Obsessed Customer Base Each snack brand I know of that is doing well in DTC appeals to a movement or sentiment extremely well. Keto carnivore low-FODMAP that sort of thing. A lot of this comes down to positioning but the more you can appeal to a hyper-specific consumer segment the more theyll be willing to pay (and the less willing theyll be to look for alternatives). 2) Higher Order"

"DTC operators need all the time they can get back. If youre running a brand you need to handle: Marketing/advertising Inventory tracking Warehousing Fulfillment Social And a million other things. Here's the truth: You can put a team in place but DTC brands are generally fairly lean. Its all hands on deck all the time if youre an operator. The truth is that protecting your time and only working on high-leverage parts of the business are the only ways youll grow. And in my (biased) opinion outsourcing sales tax filings and management is one of the highest-leverage things you can do. So many DTC"
