Jesse Genet (@jessegenet) and Stephan Ango (@kepano), co-founders of Lumi, join Erik on this episode.
They discuss:
- How Lumi works, and how the company changes how a DTC brand does business.
- How community influences the success of DTC brands.
- Which areas within DTC are VC-fundable.
- Where they would be investing if they were running a fund focused on the space.
- What will happen with some of the more obscure consumer products that are sold, and whether they will be sold DTC eventually.
- Who the losers might be among entrenched players.
