My guest on the show today is Ben Brostoff, software engineer at Klaviyo and the writer behind the Stock Talk newsletter on Substack. Ben has a fascinating perspective on investing—he started out in investment banking, taught himself to code, and now spends his free time researching microcap companies, especially in the software and tech space. In this episode, we dive into Ben's investing philosophy—why he targets 8–10% returns with the least amount of risk, how AI is changing the way he evaluates software moats, and why he won't own a company unless he's written a blog post about it. We also dig into some of the key lessons he's learned, from the dangers of leverage to the power of doing more than just reading a 10-K. Ben shares actionable frameworks for evaluating microcap software companies, offers a nuanced view on AI's impact on infrastructure and margins, and explains why, for him, true due diligence means turning over every rock. And for full disclosure, we discussed a number of companies during today's podcast. I am not a shareholder in any of them.

How can finance leaders identify where their capital is silently going to waste and where it can be better used to drive growth? In this episode, CJ interviews Russell Lester, the CFO of Tropic, where capital allocation is both the product and the mission. Russell introduces the concept of “spoilage”, deployed capital that fails to deliver its intended value. He also talks about “levers”, positive actions that force multiply your efforts, and “leakages”, headwinds or detractors that sap momentum. Russell believes it is the job of the CFO (or “Chief Alignment Officer”) to proactively go looking for these levers and leakages. He then explains how he uses his "center of the table" framework to redeploy the freed-up capital to fuel growth. Russell also covers how to address misalignment, what helicopter skills are and why you need them, what a data safari is and why you should take one daily, and why every CFO needs a spend management tool.—LINKS:Russell Lester on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/russell-lester-aa98463/Tropic: https://www.tropicapp.io/CJ on X (@cjgustafson222): https://x.com/cjgustafson222Mostly metrics: http://mostlymetrics.comRELATED EPISODES:The Roadshow, the IPO Process, and Ringing That Bell, With CFO Amanda Whalen of Klaviyo.CFO Jenny Decker Unveils Top Frameworks Used at Front. —TIMESTAMPS:(00:00) Preview and Intro(02:34) Sponsor – Rippling Spend | Pulley | Navan(06:18) The Business of Star Wars(08:33) The Concept of “Spoilage” in Business(10:27) How To Identify Spoiled Capital(15:10) Spoilage Caused by Strategy Drift(16:25) Sponsor – NetSuite | Planful | Tabs(20:06) What Are “Levers and Leakages”(21:40) Identifying Levers(25:52) Identifying Leakages(26:37) The Center-of-Table Framework for Budgeting(31:03) The CFO As “Chief Alignment Officer”(33:06) How To Address Misalignment(34:57) What Alignment Looks Like in a Founder-Led Business(35:54) What Helicopter Skills Are and Why You Need Them(38:07) Data Safaris and Curiosity as a Secret Weapon(42:54) Aligning Data and Defining Metrics(45:08) Using Tropic for Capital Allocation Decisions(48:13) Spend Management: Cutting Costs Versus Driving Growth(51:08) Why Every CFO Needs a Spend Management Tool(52:59) Long-Ass Lightning Round: Alignment With Investors(55:13) Auto-Renewals: Good or Bad(56:25) Advice to Younger Self(57:08) Finance Software Stack(57:57) Craziest Expense Story—SPONSORS:Rippling Spend is a spend management software that gives you complete visibility and automated policy controls across every type of spend, saving you time and money.

E-posta pazarlaması, dijital pazarlamanın en yüksek yatırım getirisi sağlayan kanallarından biri olmaya devam ediyor. Ancak klasik “herkese gönder” dönemi artık geride kaldı. Günümüzde başarılı kampanyaların temelinde kişiselleştirme ve otomasyon yer alıyor.Kişiselleştirmenin GücüKullanıcılar, kendilerine özel hissettiren markalara daha fazla sadakat gösteriyor. Adının geçtiği bir e-posta, daha önce incelediği ürünlere özel öneriler ya da doğum gününde gelen özel teklifler, küçük ama etkili dokunuşlardır. Araştırmalara göre kişiselleştirilmiş e-postalar, genel kampanyalara göre %26 daha fazla açılma oranı ve %760 daha fazla gelir artışı sağlıyor.Otomasyon ile Zaman KazanınE-posta pazarlamasında her şeyi manuel yapmak mümkün değil. Bu noktada otomasyon sistemleri devreye giriyor. Kullanıcı davranışlarına göre tetiklenen e-postalarla, hem doğru zamanda iletişim kurabilir hem de iş yükünüzü ciddi şekilde azaltabilirsiniz. Örneğin:Sepetini terk eden kullanıcıya 30 dakika sonra hatırlatma1 haftadır giriş yapmayanlara teşvik e-postasıAbonelik süresi yaklaşanlara yenileme teklifiDoğru Araçlarla Profesyonel ÇözümlerOtomasyon sistemleri için farklı araçlar mevcut:Klaviyo: Shopify veya WooCommerce ile entegre çalışır ve yüksek başarı oranı sunar.Mailchimp: Küçük işletmeler için kullanıcı dostu arayüz sağlar.Kommo CRM: WhatsApp entegrasyonuyla güçlü bir pazarlama ve CRM altyapısı sunar.Özellikle Türkiye'deki kullanıcılar için verilerin yurt içinde saklanması gerektiği unutulmamalı. Bu nedenle, yerli servis sağlayıcıları ve yasal uyumluluk kriterlerine dikkat edilmelidir.Segmentasyon ile Kişiselleştirmeyi DerinleştirinKullanıcıları ilgi alanı, yaş, cinsiyet, davranış ve satın alma geçmişine göre gruplandırarak daha nokta atışı kampanyalar kurgulamak mümkün. Örneğin, cep telefonu kategorisini inceleyen kullanıcıya anne-bebek ürünü göstermek yerine, ilgi duyduğu kategoriye özel öneriler sunmak çok daha etkili olacaktır.Başarılı Örneklerden İlham AlınAmazon'un “şunu da beğenebilirsin” önerileri, Netflix'in “yarım bıraktığın dizi seni bekliyor” hatırlatmaları ya da Trendyol'un “Favori'ne özel indirim” bildirimleri, kişiselleştirme ve otomasyonun en iyi örneklerindendir.Küçük ölçekli işletmeler için de bu stratejiler çalışır. Takı satan bir sitenin, kullanıcının ilgilendiği taş tipine göre öneri göndermesi gibi. Bu e-postalar, kullanıcıda “bu marka beni tanıyor” hissi uyandırır.Yatırım Getirisi (ROI) Çok YüksekDoğru strateji, segmentasyon ve otomasyon uygulamalarıyla e-posta pazarlamasında 40 katına kadar yatırım getirisi sağlamak mümkün. Örneğin, Klaviyo ile ayda 150 dolar yatırım yapan bir marka, 6000 dolarlık gelir elde edebiliyor. ROI'nin bu kadar yüksek olduğu başka bir kanal bulmak oldukça zor.Spam gibi görünen toplu e-postalar yerine, kişiselleştirilmiş ve zamanında ulaşan otomatik mesajlar artık çok daha etkili. Markanızı bu doğrultuda yapılandırırsanız, hem satış hem müşteri sadakati tarafında ciddi sonuçlar alabilirsiniz.Yeni nesil pazarlama için kişiselleştirme ve otomasyonu stratejinizin merkezine koyun!Daha fazla bilgi için beni instagram'da @frktprk takip edebilirsin.

Denis Dyli is the Founder and Principal of Uncap, a Shopify B2B eCommerce agency. He has led the company to become a Shopify Premier Partner, delivering over 350 eCommerce projects and replatforming more than 100 Shopify Plus stores. With over 15 years of experience in eCommerce development and strategy, Denis helps B2B and B2C sellers optimize their eCommerce platforms.  In this episode… For DTC brands expanding into B2B, legacy platforms can create significant friction. Outdated technology, slow feature deployment, and mounting maintenance costs often hinder growth, especially when buyers expect seamless, digital-first experiences. How can companies modernize their B2B operations to stay competitive and meet evolving customer expectations? According to digital commerce expert Denis Dyli, DTC brands with Shopify Plus stores can activate B2B capabilities by enabling features like custom pricing, net terms, and B2B storefront templates. He recommends updating themes to support new Shopify accounts and tailoring the logged-in buyer experience to streamline ordering. By leveraging native functionality and apps like Gorgias and Klaviyo, DTC brands can create polished, scalable B2B portals without a complete replatform. In today's episode of The Digital Deep Dive, Aaron Conant hosts Denis Dyli, the Founder and Principal of Upcap, to discuss the future of B2B eCommerce on Shopify. Denis talks about digital transformation in the B2B space, B2B companies that would benefit from Shopify's capabilities, and the impact of tariffs on the digital commerce landscape.
