building a marketplace is notoriously difficult, which is why @shoponpickle 's traction is extra impressive:
✨ 55% month over month revenue growth and 90% (!) 12-month retention
✨ operated entirely by only 2 people (its co-founders!) having raised <$400k until a few months ago (fun fact: they did over ~4000 subway rides as couriers delivering items to/from their customers this year)
//
on this week's @somethingnewp0d, we got to chat with @brian_mcmahon12 about:
✨ how Pickle solved the well known marketplace ~cold start problem~
✨ how they got some of tiktok's biggest creators as users
✨ how they raised $8m from craft/first mark in ~this environment~ despite not being an AI company (lol)
