They explore the subjective and objective elements that define effective design, emphasising the importance of aligning design with brand goals and customer needs. Good design isn't a one-size-fits-all concept but should be tailored to the specific traffic and audience of a site. The podcast highlights the need for a balance between usability and brand presentation, suggesting that design should cater to both high-intent and low-intent audiences.The discussion also touches on the role of art direction in creating a brand's identity and the importance of functional coherence in design.James & Paul reference several websites, including OKA, Sanqvist, Civilist Berlin, On Running, JW Anderson and Oh Polly, as examples of innovative design that successfully integrate creative elements with functional usability. The importance of a structured design discovery process and the need for clear design documentation to ensure consistency and adaptability is emphasised.Throughout the episode, James & Paul flag the evolving nature of ecommerce design, advocating for a strategic approach that considers both aesthetic appeal and practical functionality. Key discussion points:Good design varies by brand.Understanding user intent is critical for design success.Balancing creativity with functionality is key in ecommerce.Art direction is crucial for brand identity.The design discovery process involves managing stakeholder opinions.Functional coherence is essential for user experience.Testing design changes is vital for measuring impact.Design documentation should be fluid and accessible.Chapters:[00:30] Defining Good Web Design[06:40] The Design Discovery Process[13:30] The Role of Art Direction[20:05] Interaction Design and Functional Coherence[24:40] Measuring Investment Impact in Ecommerce[28:00] Balancing Risk and Innovation in Design[29:50] Functional Coherence in Ecommerce Design[36:25] Creating Friction: A Double-Edged Sword[37:50] The Importance of Testing and Iteration[42:50] Design Documentation for Consistency

Episode 396 of The VentureFizz Podcast features Alasdair McLean-Foreman, CEO & Founder of Teikametrics. It's another repeat guest! I think I'm up to 5 repeat guests on The VentureFizz Podcast and just like the 5-times club on Saturday Night Live, I might have to start thinking about getting some custom jackets made up for our repeat guests because they must be on to something special! Take Alasdair, who… five years ago, back on Episode 153, shared some predictions around eCommerce that were mostly spot on. So, I was eager to get his point of view on what's next especially in this radically evolving world of AI which we discuss at the beginning of our interview. He has an interesting perspective as he was one of the first third-party sellers on Amazon and his company, Teikametrics, has a front row seat as the AI marketplace optimization platform for leading brands.

In this episode of the Grow A Small Business Podcast host Troy Trewin interviews Justin Snyder, founder of Forest Superfoods, who turned a $250 idea into a global health brand. He shares how his passion for nutrition and persistence led to 350,000+ orders and 25% annual growth. Justin opens up about the early struggles, the lessons learned in e-commerce, and how building a small but dedicated team of 10 fueled his success. He discusses the importance of customer trust, product quality, and word-of-mouth growth in scaling a business. Listeners will gain powerful insights into resilience, sales focus, and creating long-term business impact. Why would you wait any longer to start living the lifestyle you signed up for? Balance your health, wealth, relationships and business growth. And focus your time and energy and make the most of this year. Let's get into it by clicking here. Troy delves into our guest's startup journey, their perception of success, industry reconsideration, and the pivotal stress point during business expansion. They discuss the joys of small business growth, vital entrepreneurial habits, and strategies for team building, encompassing wins, blunders, and invaluable advice. And a snapshot of the final five Grow A Small Business Questions: What do you think is the hardest thing in growing a small business? Justin Snyder said that the hardest thing in growing a small business is knowing what to do next. He explained that making the right decision at the right time is critical, because the wrong move can set the business back. Over 20 years of experience taught him to step back, look at things from a bird's-eye view, and carefully decide the next logical step for growth. What's your favorite business book that has helped you the most? Justin Snyder shared that his favorite business book is “Unreasonable Hospitality” by Will Guidara, which he loved because it highlights the power of going to extremes to please and wow customers. He also mentioned another impactful read from his younger years, “What They Don't Teach You at Harvard Business School” by Mark H. McCormack, which had a profound influence on his business mindset. Are there any great podcasts or online learning resources you'd recommend to help grow a small business? Justin Snyder recommends the Founders Podcast for its inspiring stories of entrepreneurs across history that remain highly relevant today. He highlights how hearing about their obsession with being exceptional motivates him to push boundaries. Justin also values business and marketing books, such as Unreasonable Hospitality and What They Don't Teach You at Harvard Business School. For daily learning, he listens to hours of podcasts and reads articles to sharpen his skills. He believes that continuous exposure to these resources fuels innovation and helps small business owners grow with focus and resilience. What tool or resource would you recommend to grow a small business? Justin Snyder recommends keeping things simple and focusing on tools that truly move the needle for small business growth. For him, the most valuable “resource” has been a lean mindset – taking consistent daily action to grow, maintaining operational control, and prioritizing product quality over flashy systems. He stresses that even without outside funding or expensive software, small businesses can thrive by using practical tools like integrated order management systems, building customer trust through branding, and always focusing on sales and marketing as the core drivers of growth. What advice would you give yourself on day one of starting out in business? Justin Snyder said that if he could give himself advice on day one of starting his business, it would be to use time wisely. In the early days, he often spent hours on small website tweaks or tasks that didn't materially impact growth, simply because he thought he had to work nine-to-five like a regular job. Looking back, he wishes he had focused more on activities that truly moved the business forward, like reaching new customers and driving sales. His advice is to always prioritize the tasks that create real growth, rather than getting lost in busy work.

Ecommerce brands are burning through ad budgets faster than ever, only to watch clicks turn into… nothing much. Shoppers are wary, options are endless, and the usual marketing tricks don't build the kind of trust that gets someone to buy. But when real customers start sharing their experiences, it cuts through the noise in a way no banner ad can. It's cheaper, it's human, and it feels believable—because it's not the brand talking, it's the people who actually use it. https://youtu.be/7z0usqinFZY?si=6ybjMWfBkA2GIsgN William Gasner, CMO of Stack Influence, draws on 15+ years in tech and ecommerce as a six-time founder and seven-figure seller. Today, he explains how brands can leverage micro influencers to drive authentic growth and sales. He highlights common mistakes to avoid, like chasing follower counts over engagement, and stressed the importance of building trust in competitive markets. His focus: sustainable influencer partnerships that deliver real results. Stay tuned! Quotes: “The landscape of social media has really become democratized, where basically anyone with a social profile can be an amazing promoter.” “The beautiful thing about micro and nano influencers is you basically just need product; you don't really need any budget.” “Find people who are passionate—passionate about the niche that you plan—and engage with those people, right? Because at the end of the day, influence is correlated with authenticity and trust.” Resources: connecting brands to everyday creators Connect with William Gasner on LinkedIn

In this milestone episode, we're taking you behind the scenes of one of our internal projects: building a brand-new AI bot for the ECF community. Two years ago, we dipped our toes into the AI space with our first attempt… and let's just say it didn't quite pan out. But a lot has changed since then. Now that AI is not only more powerful but more accessible, we've decided to try again—with clearer goals, a sharper focus, and a commitment to enhancing the member experience rather than replacing the human connection ECF is built on. Listen in as we talk about what's changed in the AI space, how we're thinking about ethics and privacy, and what this new tool is designed to do. (Spoiler: it's not just another chatbot.) We're also sharing real use cases where we've already integrated AI into the ECF platform, as well as a few thoughts on where AI is not useful and what it all means for future business strategy.

While everyone obsesses over AI shopping assistants, the real commerce transformation is happening in other spaces. Steve Norris from Logicbroker unpacks how Gen Alpha's $67 weekly spending habits, Roblox's 380 million users, and agentic tools are forcing retailers to reshape their operational backbones. Key takeaways:Loyalty has evolved from transactional to operational - Modern consumers demand authentic brand experiences over points and discounts, rewarding companies that consistently deliver on their stated valuesThe supply chain is the overlooked frontier - While everyone focuses on AI shopping assistants, the transformative opportunity lies in agentic order routing, returns processing, and risk scoringInventory visibility remains the ultimate blocker - Real-time visibility across distribution centers, stores, and supplier networks is still the foundational challenge preventing true omnichannel success"There are people that are buying now that aren't humans... That's just a weird statement when you say that out loud." - Steve Norris"We're moving from this transactional loyalty to more of this operational loyalty... which is like a brand's ability to be able to flawlessly execute on their position and their story." - Steve Norris"I used to hand-code web pages in Notepad.exe...

Wade Brown is the Vice President of Marketing at cbdMD, a publicly traded company known for its CBD and cannabis product lines. He is a seasoned executive with expertise across ecommerce, B2B and B2C channels, digital advertising, and strategic partnerships. Wade has led marketing for restricted product categories, including CBD, THC beverages, firearms, and tactical gear, with leadership roles at SupplyKick, Inc Authority, NatureWise, among others. At cbdMD, he drives customer acquisition and creative ad strategies, spearheading the launch of the Herbal Oasis infused beverage line and securing distribution with major retailers like Total Wine. In this episode… When the usual ad channels become crowded, expensive, or off-limits, many brands can get stuck with limited growth options. For companies in restricted categories, the challenge is even greater: How do you reach high-quality customers while staying compliant and profitable? Could a lesser-known platform like AppLovin be the untapped opportunity these brands need? According to Wade Brown, a seasoned marketing leader with deep expertise in restricted product categories, AppLovin has become one of the most reliable top-of-funnel acquisition channels. He highlights that the platform delivers trackable, high-quality traffic, often outperforming Meta and TikTok. The key, Wade explains, is repurposing proven creatives like UGC videos while also testing interactive HTML ads that offer richer engagement. By treating AppLovin as a funnel starter rather than expecting immediate conversions, brands can nurture audiences more effectively and expand reach into new markets. This strategic approach helps restricted brands capture authentic traffic and build sustainable campaigns. In this episode of the Minds of Ecommerce, Raphael Paulin-Daigle interviews Wade Brown, VP of Marketing at cbdMD, about how AppLovin helps restricted brands scale customer acquisition. Wade discusses the advantages of HTML ads, how to repurpose winning creatives, and the importance of patience in testing. He also shares insights into funnel measurement, traffic quality, and common mistakes marketers make when evaluating new platforms.

With her husband earning a high W-2 income in medical device sales, they're exploring passive strategies like turnkey rentals, multifamily, syndications, and hard money lending — all while aiming for financial freedom in 5 to 7 years.

Marco unpacks the pros, cons, and creative solutions that could help Kelliane and others in similar situations get the best of both worlds — passive income and major tax savings.

Yoav Oz is the Co-Founder and CEO of Rep AI, the conversational commerce platform giving online shoppers the kind of guided experience you'd expect from an in-store salesperson.The spark came from Yoav's own frustration: landing on ecommerce sites where he was ready to buy but stuck with eight pages of product copy and no one to answer his questions. Call centers felt broken. Chatbots felt generic. Out of that gap came Rep,  short for “representative”: an AI sales assistant trained to step in at the exact right moment, with the context of everything a shopper has clicked, viewed, or abandoned.Yoav isn't building alone. Alongside him is Shauli Mizrahi, Rep's CTO and co-founder, who brings years of experience in behavioral AI. Together, they've built a tool that doesn't just cut support costs: it upsells, converts hesitant browsers, and helps brands maximize the traffic they've already paid to bring in.Their story blends SaaS know-how with ecommerce scrappiness: from proving AI could act like a real salesperson, to showing how conversational data can optimize entire funnels, to scaling integrations that slot into any brand's existing stack.Whether you're running a DTC store, trying to push up average order value, or rethinking how AI fits into your tech stack, Yoav shares a candid look at why the ecommerce funnel is broken and how Rep AI is working to fix it.In This Conversation We Discuss: [00:48] Intro[01:22] Sharing career paths before entrepreneurship[03:23] Bridging gaps between chatbots and consumers[07:01] Shifting mindset from support to revenue[08:33] Training AI with millions of conversations[12:55] Optimizing websites beyond guesswork[15:41] Creating experiences that drive purchases[17:16] Personalizing offers beyond discounts[18:11] Customizing tone of voice for every brandResources:Subscribe to Honest Ecommerce on YoutubeeCommerce shopping AI agent www.hellorep.ai/Follow Yoav Oz linkedin.com/in/yoavozFollow Shauli Mizrahi linkedin.com/in/shaulimizrachyIf you're enjoying the show, we'd love it if you left Honest Ecommerce a review on Apple Podcasts.

Udayan Bose is the Founder and CEO of NetElixir, a digital marketing agency designed to help the growth of eCommerce businesses, B2B companies, and retail brands through strategic solutions and an AI-powered platform. Udayan is also the Co-founder of The Udaan Trust, a nonprofit foundation of NetElixir that supports underprivileged young women in India to pursue their education goals and build successful careers. In this episode… AI is transforming the way businesses operate, but the question remains: How can AI create measurable value instead of being just another buzzword? As industries experiment with generative tools, the stakes are high for brands trying to keep up with rapid technological shifts. What does it take to integrate AI responsibly to drive growth and innovation? Digital marketer and AI researcher Udayan Bose says companies must rethink how AI fits into core strategies rather than treating it as an add-on. They can leverage machine learning and generative models to identify high-value customers, streamline complex workflows, and uncover new opportunities for revenue growth. The advantage comes from reinvesting efficiency gains into new roles, experimentation, and innovation. When paired with a human-centered, responsible approach, AI can reshape industries. In this episode of The Digital Deep Dive, Aaron Conant sits down with Udayan Bose, Founder and CEO of NetElixir, to discuss unlocking business value with generative AI. Udayan talks about the disruptive potential of applied AI, why responsible adoption balances efficiency with human innovation, and how to select agencies and invest in future-proof strategies.

"I'm not very good at success. That's something I learned as part of this."Ben Knegendorf went from forklift operator at Walmart to selling his stake in an indoor golf business for $720,000.

Stop bleeding profit. Most Amazon sellers obsess over ads and keywords, but logistics is the silent factor that decides whether you keep your margins — or hand them over to Amazon in fees. Try SteadyStock for free at: https://www.steadystock.io/   In this episode of Built by Business with Andy Isom, Andy breaks down why storage, shipping, and fulfillment fees quietly eat into profits, and how optimizing logistics can have a bigger impact on your bottom line than tweaking your PPC strategy.   You'll learn how to:   Identify hidden Amazon fees (storage utilization, placement service, low-inventory). Optimize inbound, storage, and fulfillment for lower costs. Treat logistics like PPC — a process you manage weekly.   Revenue is vanity. Profit is sanity. Cash is king. And logistics is where you protect it.   For a free Amazon Brand Audit, head to www.weavos.io and get 3 custom action steps to grow profitably.
