This is Matt Reustle and today we are breaking down Restoration Hardware. The average person would call RH a furniture company but RH is a company where the CEO feels as important as the business, and CEO Gary Friedman has aspirations well beyond selling furniture. To break down RH, I'm joined by Drew Cohen of Speedwell Research. You may remember Drew from our breakdown of Floor & Decor. We cover how Gary Friedman took Restoration Hardware from the brink of bankruptcy and has built it into a brand with luxury aspirations. We go deep on the business model, why has RH been leaning into this in person experience despite a massive e-commerce boom, the reality of interior designers, inventory management, and orchestrating a supply chain when you sell monstrous couches. There's a lot to talk about here. It's a fascinating business with a fascinating person sitting at the middle of it.

I pride myself on being a "translator of geek-speak" but even more so working really hard to be the best communicator I can, possibly when on stage, behind the podcast microphone, or even at the dinner team with friends. So you might be thinking we know Brian using phrases like "Wen Lambo" or "Eth Maxi" or "Dgens" make things confusing but it's part of the culture...   And you would be right and I think those things are actually important aspects for the culture to continue to embrace and use.  Although when it comes to marketing to Web 2.0 frens or trying to onboard those who have yet to buy an NFT we must move away from saying things like "utility and roadmap" and instead say benefits and business plan.  We must also take it a step further and be strategic with what order we use certain words and what variables exist with those we are talking to so we can adjust on the fly which sounds a bit crazy but I promise I explain and give some examples...  As always: DO YOU OWN DAMN RESEARCH and we hope you enjoy coming on this Mint 365 journey as we buy an NFT every day for 365 days: https://www.nft365podcast.com/mint365 The 1st DAILY Podcast buying an NFT mint every day for a year!

One of the aspects that excites me the most about the NFT space is the idea that each person that buys into the power of NFTs can chart out their own path and vision for how they fit into their business, their investment strategy and even their life.   With that in mind I had to take the opportunity of being at an IRL event with two listeners of the podcast that happen to also be speakers at this event and have them come on and share their journey into NFTs.   The wild part is they both jumped into NFTs after hearing me speak at Social Media Marketing World and over the last 4.5 months have taken that NFT bug and ran with it in their own ways.   No matter where you are in your NFT journey I believe this episode will connect with you as you might be excited to launch your own project as Katie is or maybe you are diversifying your investment portfolio like Jordache...   Make sure to follow these two powerhouses and stay tuned for more episodes over the upcoming weeks from fellow listeners and friends of the podcast.  About Katie Brinkley:  Katie Brinkley has been leveraging social media to grow audiences and income for over 18 years.

High early volume create powerful secondary sales and can fund the project with creator % even more so than a mint at .06 FUN & Creativity seem to flourish as you build together rather than pre fund founders to build while you wait  3 Results  Reset the mint market price that was getting out of control, shift a focus to creative ways of using secondary percentages and genius/ choose your own adventure projects.  Move value away from ROI and more towards ROR… Just cause you're own something the value doesn't have to tied to your ability to resell it.  Free mint can lead the way in new utility and roadmap structure such as discord added after first utility is delivered or no discord at all or only community created “Fan club style”  As always: DO YOU OWN DAMN RESEARCH and we hope you enjoy coming on this Mint 365 journey as we buy an NFT every day for 365 days: https://www.nft365podcast.com/mint365 The 1st DAILY Podcast buying an NFT mint every day for a year!

Those of us that are living and breathing the web 3.0 and NFT space love the fact that it still feels early or as I like to say we are all "still just getting started" But for those creators, musicians, authors and athletes with established brands and audiences the fact that the NFT space still feels early adds too much risk...  Now I know most are wanting to know "When is the perfect time to launch an NFT project" and breaking news....  nobody has a clue how to answer that question.  But in this episode, I share some of the things we have to consider, some of the ways I believe the education of the masses will start to show and ultimately what creators that feel like its " too early" should be doing as they wait for a more optimal time for their community.  As always: DO YOU OWN DAMN RESEARCH and we hope you enjoy coming on this Mint 365 journey as we buy an NFT every day for 365 days: https://www.nft365podcast.com/mint365 The 1st DAILY Podcast buying an NFT mint every day for a year!

As most everyone heard back on episode 119 I believe the use-cases for NFTs are far beyond what most of us are thinking about or event collecting/creating today.  But sadly even with us only using maybe 1% of those use-cases today the market is for sure confused when it comes to the value of projects especially when we mix things like collectables, music nfts, pfp projects and one of one art together as one.  In this episode I wanted to not only point that out but give some examples of how things are skewed so we can not only be aware of it but we can hopefully help change the narrative we are using as we talk about NFTs outside of our bubble.  Listen to episode 119 in your favorite podcasting apps or here: https://www.nft365podcast.com/the-nft-use-cases-of-the-future-that-nobody-is-talking-about-episode-119/ As always: DO YOU OWN DAMN RESEARCH and we hope you enjoy coming on this Mint 365 journey as we buy an NFT every day for 365 days: https://www.nft365podcast.com/mint365 The 1st DAILY Podcast buying an NFT mint every day for a year!

One of my favorite aspects of this Web 3.0 and NFT space is the pace of innovation and how we are often building on concepts that other web 3.0 categories have deployed and tested.  In this case "staking crypto" has been around for a long while but with NFTs has only recently become common place in many NFT projects and I believe will be the norm over the next couple months.  What is Staking exactly?  In my words it's: Locking your NFT within another contract or protocol that will provide benefits for the NFT holder and also help shrink the supply for sale and commit the holders to holding for a period of time benefiting the NFT project founders. In this episode, I breakdown why and how this works as I've been staking NFTs since November of 2021 and I believe there are some lessons I've learned that I hope will help everyone evaluate if this is a play for them.  As always: DO YOU OWN DAMN RESEARCH and we hope you enjoy coming on this Mint 365 journey as we buy an NFT every day for 365 days: https://www.nft365podcast.com/mint365 The 1st DAILY Podcast buying an NFT mint every day for a year!

The trends of early adoption cycles are something I never really bought into until recently as noticed the similarities as I look back on my career being an early adopter with the first international blackberry, beta testing apps on the original iPhone to launching shows on Google +, Meerkat and Blab. I don't really like the phrase "we are all early" because what does that even mean as far as action...  I prefer saying we are all "just getting started" and with that just getting started framework we have to recognize that things are going to be far from perfect while also owning the fact that if we want to drive change and make things happen we have to push what's possible to prove what needs to be created. Web 2.0 has created many amazing things and in most cases we will need to leverage those things in combination with Web 3.0 solutions to drive true innovation, especially over the next 2-5 years.   So I challenge you, listen to this episode, keep building and please PRESS THE DAMN BUTTON!  As always: DO YOU OWN DAMN RESEARCH and we hope you enjoy coming on this Mint 365 journey as we buy an NFT every day for 365 days: https://www.nft365podcast.com/mint365 The 1st DAILY Podcast buying an NFT mint every day for a year!
