    How Ridge Uses Incrementality to Cut Waste and Scale What Works

    Is your incrementality testing giving you accurate data or are you burning budget on a broken signal? Austin Harrison (CEO, Northbeam) joins Sean Frank (CEO, Ridge) and Katy Mimari (CEO, Caden Lane) to challenge the most repeated advice in ecommerce measurement: that longer tests are always better, holdouts are interchangeable, and incrementality alone is enough to make media decisions. They break down when a growing brand needs incrementality versus MTA, and how running tests inside a noisy environment can produce weeks of data worth nothing. Sean pulls from Ridge’s own results to show how layering incrementality on top of MTA unlocked YouTube spend that in-platform data never would have justified, while Katy’s botched first test proves clean test conditions matter as much as the tool itself. They also dig into why moving up funnel on Meta is outperforming conversion campaigns at scale, and what separates the fastest-growing ecommerce brands in 2026 on creative.   Powered By Fulfil https://bit.ly/3pAp2vu Saras Analytics https://bit.ly/9OP-Ytdesc Aftersell https://9ops.co/4i3bb5 Richpanel https://9ops.co/richpanel Northbeam https://www.northbeam.io/ Postscript https://9ops.co/postscript Operators Newsletter https://9operators.com/

    How Ecommerce CEOs Actually Pay Themselves (Real Answers)

    “The obtaining of money is a lot easier than stewarding that money well.” Sean Frank (CEO, Ridge), Mike Beckham (CEO, Simple Modern), and Matt Bertulli (CEO, Pela Case & Lomi) dig into one of the most-requested topics from listeners: how do owner-operators pay themselves? And what should they be aiming for? The hosts walkthrough salary benchmarks, distribution strategies, and the honest math behind building long-term wealth in consumer.   The conversation goes deep on the tension between pulling money out now versus betting on the asset long-term, creating a business that outlasts you as CEO, and why chasing one big exit can be the very thing that ruins the deal. They also get personal by sharing what they’d tell their younger selves, the difference between financial security and financial freedom, and why the number you think you need is almost always wrong.   Powered By Fulfil https://9ops.co/fulfil  Saras Analytics https://bit.ly/9OP-Ytdesc Postscript https://9ops.co/postscript Richpanel https://9ops.co/richpanel Northbeam https://www.northbeam.io/ Aftersell https://9ops.co/4i3bb5 Operators Newsletter https://9operators.com/

    How to Hire the 5 Ecommerce Roles That Will Make or Break Your Brand

    “The right person does nothing but print money.”  Sean Frank, Matt Bertulli, Curtis Matsko, and Katy Mimari get into a heated debate on the hardest roles to hire in ecommerce. Nobody agrees. And that’s exactly the point.  The conversation tears through five make-or-break positions: (1) head of product, (2) head of growth, (3) head of Amazon, (4) creative strategist, and (5) head of influencer. Along the way, they expose why CMO is the shortest-tenured C-suite role for a reason, how a wedding photographer became a top-performing CMO, and what it takes to lock down great talent before they go build something on their own.  Powered By Fulfil https://9ops.co/fulfil  Saras Analytics https://bit.ly/9OP-Ytdesc  Postscript https://9ops.co/postscript  Richpanel https://9ops.co/richpanel  Northbeam https://www.northbeam.io/  Aftersell https://9ops.co/4i3bb5  Operators Newsletter https://9operators.com/

    Trends Shaping Health & Wellness in Ecommerce: GLP-1s & Beyond

    What happens in ecommerce when obesity is cured? Sean Frank (CEO of Ridge) and Matt Bertulli (CEO of Pela Case x Lomi) dig into one of the biggest health-and-wellness trends they’ve seen in their careers: the GLP-1 wave and how it’s rewiring consumers. They cover who’s about to get crushed and who’s sitting on a gold mine.   From the collapse of plus-size apparel and the slow death of junk food to the rise of fiber, longevity, and gut health, they map out the second and third-order effects. They also get into why ecommerce is still the fastest engine for CPG growth, and what Sean sees as the next ingredient trends worth betting on — colostrum to hair loss to mental health.   Powered By Fulfil https://bit.ly/3pAp2vu Postscript https://9ops.co/postscript Richpanel https://9ops.co/richpanel Northbeam https://www.northbeam.io/ Aftersell https://9ops.co/4i3bb5 Saras Analytics https://bit.ly/9OP-Ytdesc Operators Newsletter https://9operators.com/

    Ecommerce Founder’s Guide to Owning Your Manufacturing & Factory

    Could one bad supplier decision bring your entire ecommerce brand down? Curtis Matsko (CEO, Portland Leather Goods) joins hosts Matt Bertulli (CEO, Pela Case & Lomi) and Mike Beckham (CEO, Simple Modern) to pull back the curtain on one of the most misunderstood decisions in consumer goods: vertical integration. Curtis built North America’s largest leather bag manufacturer in Mexico not by grand design, but out of pure necessity.   The conversation covers why owning your factory can 10x your business or burn millions of dollars, and how China’s manufacturing dominance is being driven by robotics, not just cheap labor. They unpack how the coming wave of AI-powered robotics could reshape fulfillment and production faster than most operators expect, and close with the one move each host credits with 10xing their own business.

Matt’s approach is on-demand, sustainable manufacturing balanced with high-velocity releases for new variants, colors, and sizes.
