The Studio & Ecommerce Collective
The Studio & E-commerce Collective is the podcast for studio and e-commerce production leaders. Hosted by Rich Summers, CEO and co-founder of Lets Flo, each episode digs into the real challenges of running high volume e-commerce studios, from sample management and shoot workflows to scaling content production without losing your mind. Featuring conversations with studio directors, production managers, photographers and the people who actually do the work, this is honest, practical and built for the people on the studio floor, not the boardroom. Part of The Studio & E-commerce Collective, an industry community bringing together events, a newsletter and this podcast.

Following the first episode, Rich Summers and Johan Santos reconvene from Brooklyn to reflect on the inaugural Studio and E-commerce Collective event and why bringing this community together matters. They dig into the real pressures facing studio teams at scale: sample visibility, data integrity, resource planning, and the compounding cost of small inefficiencies across high-volume production pipelines. Johan shares what drew him to Lets Flo after two decades in the industry, and why reducing burnout across studio teams sits at the heart of the platform's mission. The conversation also touches on where AI fits into the future of e-commerce content production and what it actually means to run a studio that operates as a single source of truth, from sample check-in through to site. If you work in or around a studio, this one is for you.
