Huel dropped its 2024 results, and the business continues to impress. Posting record sales & profits for 2024, Huel is a textbook case for any brand scaling to 9-figures & turning the profitability spigot on🚀 And yes, this one’s a long one - let's dive in 👇

If you’re working closely with a lawyer over the holidays, do the right thing and send them a gift. Most people don’t realize that lawyers eat so much shit between thanksgiving and Christmas. Sure they get good fees, it’s also brutal work and they are mostly well intentioned

This is what were currently working on at iris by building a proprietary data pipeline, weve structured 100 consumer brands data down to the order level according to GAAP This is what enables the AI to do its magic, building models & analysis in place of finance talent

I screenshotted the quarterly financials from the ServiceTitan S-1 and plugged it into Claude with no prompt. It made me a gorgeous interactive web dashboard. I say "this is crazy" on repeat, but if you told someone this 2yrs ago they would say "we don't know how to do it"

LTV:CAC has become a somewhat controversial metric in DTC. Commonly used in SaaS, LTV:CAC in consumer brands is hotly debated as to whether or not this SHOULD apply So here's a dedicated thread DEBUNKING THE MYTHS and explaining EVERYTHING you need to know about LTV:CAC 👇👇

Josh interned for me when he was at Georgetown. He is one of the most incredible people I’ve ever met and probably the smartest. Happy to see him getting more airtime!

It was a pleasure to join @qthomp on @OnTheMarginPod The oldest sector in crypto is undergoing a fundamental shift. Below, we explore the transition of BTC mining facilities to AI / HPC data centers, AI demand's mismatch with U.S. energy supply, the future of compute, and more.



hes committed to wearing the shoes everyday for 5 years if he can rally a buyout

Allbirds reported its third quarter earnings yesterday and while the stock got a modest bump on the report, I am absolutely not liking what I see. So much so, that I propose that we buy the whole thing at $80m. Lets dive in into the earnings👇👇

some of the talent under 30 today are so fucking smart its borderline offensive. the quality of companies being built by kids in their 20's is wildly under appreciated for most of society. Everyday I feel dumber and dumber.


he moves markets with a mere tweet like icahn announcing an apple stake

on all birds earnings call…geeez. such a mess. “Getting back to our roots” by partnering with Marriot Bonvoy and Uber Eats as part of their marketing initiatives some boomer management team trying to turn around one of the great modern brands is a disaster



Sf is Twitter in real life


a customer just came inbound to Iris for a demo, and at one point he (as a CPG brand) raised from insane VC's in silicon valley. Went through the seed money, didnt want to raise more. Sold his house (his wife must be incredible) and turned the business into a huge name most know

And never partner with people who want to be advisors without putting up cash

almost 10 years in startups and 1 thing has always held true: do not work with ppl who sell you their network ppl who claim to be “plugged” or say they will be valuable to your biz based on not what they bring to the table, but who they know are vultures 100% of the time
