S1 E2: Why Nik Sharma Bought Long Wknd / How to Optimize For Prime Day / Tales From Grow Conference

How do you choose a DTC brand to buy? Ask Nik Sharma, he rejected 3 before landing on Long Wknd.  Nik and Moiz kick off with the NYC Grow Conference. From hosting the most successful after-party, to guests who totally bombed on panel discussions. The pair get into why PR filtered-conversations are the worst, and why aircon should be top of the organizer’s list. You’ll also hear the story of how Nik acquired Long Wknd, which brands did well over Prime Day, and how to get your DTC company ready for next year’s event. And if you’re looking to create an app for your brand, you need Tapcart. Using a drag and drop builder makes it super easy and you can be up running in days, rather than weeks.
