@vibhu [ex-Amazon 19 year vet/VP here]

DTC undervalues operations. Most founders come from a branding background and are wonderful peace time CEOs. #blands

Most do not understand the sequential maturity of operations that lends leverage on margin and growth.

Can't think of a worse assertion than consumers don't want home deliver less and less. 2 decades at Amazon taught me that convenience always wins. What's more convenient than a packing showing up on your doorstep?

@digitallynativ It amazes me how many of the 2019s didn't transition from launch mode to scale mode, though.

1/ The COO role, more than most positions at a startup, appears ambiguous to many people. That’s partly because the role changes depending on a company’s size, industry, stage, CEO, and many other factors.

Here is my take on what makes a great COO. 🧵

Now this is GOLD. Business Insider is using a #pitchdeck that was never presented to anyone as a pay wall magnet. 😆🤣

[Jason Murray @JasonShipium]

Here's a fun story - We spent months on our pitch deck... only to never give it once en route to landing our Series A!

One of my favs @emmacos covered the story and shared our deck-that-never-was in her story about our raise this morning.

[Jason Murray @JasonShipium]

So excited to share with you all the news. We just announced our Series A, the largest in logistics SaaS history.

More coverage on Copia from Forbes with contribution from me. I really love this company and am honored to be on their board.

@retailgeek It really is quite fascinating.

Never forget that One-Click-Checkout was only ever 10% growth at Amazon at it's peak.

And now the idea has been commodified to the max thanks to Apple et al...

[Jason Murray @JasonShipium]

This was a fun conversation and I'm honored to be included in this list.

@digitallynativ Sorry to be a "reply guy", just on Twitter atm.

Carrier Tax is usually 12% of P&L.

We (@shipiumdotcom) are laser focused on reducing that 5%-10%. We're the best route to relieve that tax rate. Exactly how we are thinking too.

(Just sharing we are kindred spirits on this.)

[Jason Murray @JasonShipium]

@digitallynativ For sure (former 19-year / VP here)

Growth levers were:

Price+Selection+Convenience

The thing is Price/Selection are played out. No comp edge now.

Convenience is 50% shopping exp & 50% shipping exp.

The Fast thing is confirming: the shopping half is commodified, too.

🤔

[Jason Murray @JasonShipium]

Thank you to @SCBrain for the interview opportunity. The questions asked really drove at the heart of retail's main supply chain problems.
