UGLY TALK: HOW BREAKOUT ECOMMERCE BRANDS SELL OUT DURING BFCM
About This Event
One of our most curated Ugly Talks for DTC brand founders this year.
Spend an evening with other growth-stage consumer brand founders in New York, the people fighting the same holiday battle you are. Compare notes, swap what's actually working, and find the collaborations that make next quarter easier. Food and drinks are on us.
And this one comes with a guest worth showing up for. Jay Wright is joining to break down what's still working for holiday shopping this season: the tactics, the traps, and the plays that actually move revenue during BFCM.
🎤 Featuring Jay Wright - Founder, Ecommerce Equation

Jay is an ecommerce growth expert and mentor to a community of over 4,000 ecommerce founders. He helps established brand owners find a clear path to scale, without relying on a third party.
