FOLKS! It is our 200th issue! Subsequently the celebratory 80s jams are POPPING in our headphone as we lovingly put this one together. That means only one thing:
GRATUITOUS HALL & OATES GIFS
| TWEET OF THE WEEK
Here’s how this furry little monster is taking over worldwide.
It’s name? Labubu, a character created by Hong Kong Artist Kasing Lung.
It has fangs, a defiant expression, but a tender childlike heart. The embodiment of conflicting emotions, both moody and adorable.
From Thai

Still rotating banners like it’s 2014?
Blue Stout ran the test: one clear headline crushed carousels. Higher conversions, lower bounce, better engagement—because clarity > creativity when it comes to the hero section.
Stop making users guess.

Why Most DTC Brands Overhire (And How to Stay Lean)
| TOGETHER WITH DOSS
Doss is an Adaptive Resource Platform (ARP) that molds to your business processes, not the other way around.
Built on a composable architecture, Doss unifies your entire operation into a single source of truth that adapts to your unique workflows: orders, inventory, procurement, production planning, warehousing, and accounting. With built-in business intelligence and reporting, you get instant insights where your data lives, without juggling multiple point systems or wrestling with integrations.
Traditional ERPs like NetSuite and Dynamics promise comprehensive features but deliver comprehensive headaches. Even newer platforms like Odoo and Cin7 trap you in the same cycle: expensive and lengthy implementations, constant technical debt, and systems that break when your business changes. Pick a system that grows with your business, and cares to understand it.

Amer Sunny Grozdanic: Here’s a stat that gets ignored too often:
Alex Greifeld: Why is it so hard for brands to find a “good” media buyer? Because most brands aren’t actually looking for a media buyer.
Davie Fogarty: The marketplace rewards execution, not ideas.
Jimmy Kim: There are only 3 reasons someone doesn’t buy your product.
Sarah Levinger: Been in marketing for (almost) 17 years...how am I just now hearing about this?? 🤯

Fun Fact: The official name of the band is Daryl Hall & John Oates.. NOT Hall & Oates, as I continue to say anytime I reference them.
(can’t go for being called Hall & Oates)
Funner fun fact: There’s a 9 inch difference between these two gents, so anytime you see them in their music videos, one of them is DEFINITELY in stilettos.
