Guest Quotes

“You want a partner who listens to you, who you can speak with, and you can really work with too. Who has your best interest in mind. When we think about metrics, that is really what’s becoming increasingly important in the partnerships.” - Matt Hertz

“I think the final frontier of friction in the e-commerce experience is logistics. It’s the physical aspect. It’s the part that’s really tough to scale. I think so many merchants, creators, and so many entrepreneurs almost neglect the supply chain and the physical aspect of e-commerce.” - Matt Hertz
