This is the Operators Guide to Ecommerce Channel Expansion. It is 75 pages. It is free. Part 1: The Foundation, Why? Part 2: The Frameworks, How? Part 3: The Frontiers: Where? There are also 3 downloadable checklists (Google Sheets) inside. Here is who wrote it with me … Matthew Bertulli Beating Growth Ceilings Two DTC Playbooks Jason Panzer One Rule to Follow Connor MacDonald Maturity Curves & Stages Cody Plofker Diversification Traps Connor Rolain Prioritizing Channels Miranda Pettinger Mobile Game Ads Taylor Holiday Diversify to Amplify Axon by AppLovin on Step-by-Step It is the most exhaustive + practical guide to growing a brand through diversification ever created. Massive thank you to the AppLovin team. Without its sponsorship of the Operators x MarketingOperators Masterclass, this would not exist.

Motivation is a LIE And this one is special. MAËLYS will hit $150M+ in 2025. Until now, co-founder & CMO Yariv Citron has stayed quiet. Today’s Operators Titans … BREAKS THE SILENCE Please join me in welcoming Yariv Citron 🥳 Most inspiring episode we’ve done. Not because it launched with Khloé Kardashian as the “face.” Not because Yariv and his co-founders bankrolled with personal guarantees. Not even because of its success. All of that pales in comparison to Yariv’s discipline + commitment. — “Many founders say motivation. “But motivation comes and goes. Especially during the bad times, I’m not motivated. “If someone says they’re motivated the entire time, they’re lying. “It’s self-discipline. “Self-discipline is there in daily routines that keep you doing the same things over and over again. “Eventually, you make progress. “So, what’s the most important word? “Self-discipline.” — I hope you love this episode as much as I loved getting to be part of it. - Failure to category creation - Law school to Facebook ads - DTC to omnichannel beast To Yariv, thank you. Here’s to so much more. Please go follow him: Yariv Citron He’ll be a massive value add to the community on this platform!

“Our goal is to become a billion-dollar brand. We know we can’t rely just on performance marketing.” That’s Brett Swensen → VP of Marketing Kizik. A 9-figure brand that grew almost entirely off its direct-response chops. But now, the team is focused on how to balance performance efforts with a strong and identifiable brand. The challenge “Instead of showing people a mirror into their current lives, how do we become a brand that shows people a window into their aspirations?” The actions - Consumer deep dives - One-on-one interviews - Quant + qualitative studies The metrics - Branded search - Post-purchase surveys - Creative ad recall - Share of voice - Uncovering brand arc Then … marrying all that with a focus on product design, an aesthetic language & higher-order benefits. The goal People who say: “I would defend the brand no matter what. “If you can get those people on your side, game over. They are the most loyal. They will shout from the rooftops. They will follow you to the ends of the earth. Those are the people that we want to bring into our tribe and our community. “On the performance side, we’re not stopping what we’re doing. “But we’re going to be tighter with our messaging and more deliberate with how we speak to our consumers.” Watch Brett explain it all in under five minutes ↓
