Fabricio Miranda, CEO & Co-Founder of Flieber: $19 Million Raised to Build the Future of Inventory Management for E-commerce

Category Visionaries

Welcome to another episode of Category Visionaries — the show that explores GTM stories from tech's most innovative B2B founders. In today's episode, we're speaking with Fabricio Miranda, CEO & Co-Founder of Flieber, an inventory management platform that has raised over $19 Million in funding.

Here are the most interesting points from our conversation:

  • Transition from Service-Led to Product-Led Growth: Flieber’s initial sales-led approach, heavily reliant on human operation, proved inefficient. A pivotal shift to a product-led growth strategy, with a self-serve platform, significantly improved scalability and product quality.
  • Identifying the Ideal ICP: Through trial and error, Fabricio identified the sweet spot for Flieber’s target market—e-commerce brands with $2 to $50 million in revenue, where inventory issues are significant, but legacy systems do not yet complicate integrations.
  • Content as a Growth Engine: Fabricio emphasizes the importance of inbound marketing through high-quality, non-salesy content that educates the market on inventory planning, positioning Flieber as a thought leader rather than just a product.
  • Challenges of Fundraising: Although Flieber’s fundraising was relatively easy, Fabricio reflects on the downsides of raising too much capital too early, which led to over-expansion and a loss of agility.
  • Vision for the Future: Fabricio envisions a future where Excel spreadsheets are no longer the standard for inventory management, advocating for the broader adoption of specialized inventory planning platforms like Flieber.
  • Building a Partnerships Strategy: Moving forward, Fabricio is focused on building strong partnerships, particularly with agencies that can introduce and integrate Flieber’s platform with their clients, expanding the platform’s reach.
