EP. 96 How To Survive & Thrive In The Current State Of Ecommerce
Description
Our conversation then takes a deep dive into the world of "zombie brands," those once high-flying companies now struggling under the weight of high customer acquisition costs. With examples spanning Outdoor Voices to Warby Parker, we examine the shifting landscape of the Direct-to-Consumer space. Amidst debates on Disneyland rides and discussions on the economic impact on e-commerce, we spotlight sectors like grocery and beauty that are defying the odds, offering a glimmer of hope in a challenging market.
As we navigate the complexities of niche marketing, we uncover the perils brands face when they stray too far from their core audience. Highlighting stories from Madewell and Athleta, we underscore the necessity of authentic, unfiltered content—a shift driven by platforms like TikTok and Snapchat. Wrapping up with insights on balancing immediate sales with long-term brand building, and even a tangent on pronghorn adaptability, we leave you with a comprehensive view on how to make your brand not just survive but thrive.
