How we operate

Approach

Operator-led

Every brand here is run by someone who has bought the inventory, written the ads and answered the support tickets.

Profit over hype

We grow brands that pay for themselves. ionbottles cleared $2M in profit before it was sold.

Built for small brands

We build our own brands and make products that teach, fund and test for the independent Shopify store, the part of e-commerce we know best.

Partnerships, press and acquisitions.
