S9 E7: What You Might Be Getting Wrong as a DTC Founder

What are Nik’s messages like? 

If you answered, “Hey Nik, I’ve founded (insert company here). It should be doing this, but it’s not. What should I do?” you’d be correct. Starting a brand isn’t easy work—so that’s why Nik has a playbook ready. Should you do a pre launch test? What conversion events should matter to you? What even is a water report? There’s a ton of concerns that a lot of founders don’t ask about, but should. 

Plus, in this solo episode, Nik reveals that your content should make sense to three people: your mom, buzzed people, and fifth graders. He explains how all three are related, even if they probably shouldn’t be in the same sentence. 

Then, Nik speaks survey: what did they buy and did they like it? How can you, as a brand, take information and improve your ops? Customer experience is a goldmine—one that you could be missing out on.
