Tired of getting sugar-coated BS about scaling into retail that doesn't actually work? Retail & Shiz is the no-nonsense podcast where a former Fortune 50 retail buyer breaks down what REALLY happens when DTC brands crack the retail code—straight from someone who spent 15 years as the gatekeeper saying yes or no to brands.

This podcast will answer questions such as:
• What do retail buyers ACTUALLY care about (spoiler: it's not your founder story)?
• How can you position your brand to stand out when you have minutes to make an impression?
• What metrics & data points will make retail buyers take you seriously?
• How do you navigate the unglamorous operational realities that nobody talks about but everyone experiences?

Hosted by Kristin Engen, who managed a $4 billion portfolio as a retail buyer (before becoming a Chief Commercial Officer), helping brands scale, each episode delivers the unfiltered truth about retail strategy that big brands pay massive amounts of cash to learn.

Hit subscribe and let's make some retail (& shiz) happen because retail doesn't have to be complicated, but it DOES take some serious strategy.
