Description

Most ecommerce playbooks fail because they treat compounders like ordinary brands. A Compounding Brand grows by turning first-time buyers into loyalists fast—and letting that flywheel do the heavy lifting.


In this episode, Mark and Ian unpack the Compounder model: how it scales, how to measure it, and how to avoid killing momentum with volume-retailer tactics.


🔍 What you’ll learn:


The 5 ecommerce archetypes—then a deep dive on the Compounder


Why Compounders outscale others: repeat velocity + LTV flywheel


The only two numbers that matter: Recruitment ROAS and Second-Sale Speed


Real playbooks behind brands compounding to $10M, $20M, and $60M+
