In this interview with Larry, we discuss many of the brands covered in the book including Dollar Shave Club, Warby Parker, eSalon, Mohawk, Anker and Tuft & Needle, as well as many of the ecosystem companies that developed to enable the DTC movement including Facebook, Quiet Logistics and Locus Robotics.
We discuss the trends of DTC companies turning to brick and mortar. New ways to leverage data to identify product niche (what Larry called the "money-balling of DTC), and what the future may hold for DTC.
We also cover events that happened after the book was published, including the FTC's blocking the Harry's acquisition, Caspers IPO, management challenges at Away.
