We’re forming a new set of routines and processes as a company right now. I’m happy to say they’re working.

Here’s some of what’s going well / not well (thread)
1. Weekly planning session ( @zoom_us).

On this call, we have the founders of all the brands and the operational team. We plan out all of our campaigns on a call and then populate @basecamp with the week’s tasks.

The following week we review.
2. Weekly support session (via @zoom_us).

This is a new “meeting” because we’re getting a lot of tickets atm. The main issues are stock, order delays and refunds. We’re trying to speed up all areas of this - with challenges.
3. Friday drinks (again via @zoom_us).

Just a nice optional and infrequent get pissed on zoom call. I’m working on getting a llama on the next one (genuine). As found via @EggrolI.
4. Bringing in expert consultants.

We have a great in-house team. We’ve got ourselves to over £9m in group revenue. But what do we do next?

We’ve brought in @ecomchasedimond for email help and @iamshackelford for ad scaling.
5. Testing new channels.

We’ve seen amazing results from TikTok and Snapchat Ads (we might need some more help there in the future @social_savannah!).
6. Constantly testing creative.

We’re working on new creative every single week to ensure we don’t burn out our ads. We’ve placed creative at the heart of our culture.
7. Cash-flow.

This is getting tricky but we’re managing it. Main issue is delivery times on stock and handling growth.

We’re seeing a 302% increase YoY and having to pay for this knowing the stock could be delayed for a further 14 days on top of usual lead times.
8. Wine.

I for one am drinking wayyyyy more than usual but I’m also exercising more. That the same for you?
What’s working / not working for you? Let me know if I can help https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🙏🏼" title="Folded hands (medium light skin tone)" aria-label="Emoji: Folded hands (medium light skin tone)">
