So many DTC brands think nice PR is more important than honesty. But that’s not us. We're Nik & Moiz, and we're tired of all the hot air in our industry. This podcast is the behind-the-scenes conversation that gets to the heart of what DTC is really like. Nik Sharma founded Sharma Brands, and Moiz Ali’s company Native was acquired by P&G for $100M. We have no reason not to call people out, and share our spicy takes. This is the conversation you won’t hear anywhere else, with two of the most experienced names in the industry. We’ll be diving deep into industry moves, autopsies on failed brands, and why we’re investing in certain companies. First episode drops soon with new episodes every Wednesday after that.
