Description

As a CEO, failure is imminent. So just… Don’t make the same mistakes twice like Moiz, ok? 
It’s another Q&A episode, and Nik and Moiz are tearing into some of your best questions from their Slack channel. 
What are the five questions all landing pages must have? What’s the best way to manage your Facebook ads? And what the heck do CEOs actually do all day anyways? 
Moiz gets personal and reveals the one mistake he made TWICE. Why is it the sexiest business ideas that are always the ones most doomed to failure? 
And later, Nik and Moiz explain why talking to people who have had negative experiences with your 3PL is vital before selecting your supplier. Why is Moiz sharpening his knives at the thought of some of his old suppliers? 
Yeah. He’s preparing for war this week. Tune in to find out why.

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.
