EP 74: EVELO Sell Innovative Electric Bikes Direct to Consumer (D2C) w/ Boris Mordkovich
2X eCommerce Podcast - Un podcast de Kunle Campbell - Les mardis
Catégories:
As you are aware - I LOVE the concept of selling direct to
consumer and owning a brand in general as against selling a range
of other manufacturers’ brands.
I especially LOVE direct to consumer product businesses when
they go against the grain to disrupt an entire industry.
my guest on today’s show has done exactly that with his
electric bike company he co-founded with his brother called
EVELO.
it is a customer-obsessed at the same time innovative electric
bike company
On this episode, Boris shares
- how his company recently raised $750,000 from actual investors on seedinvest.com and not kickstarter or indiegogo
- their sales funnel
- why content marketing is synonymous to education (especially for high ticket products)
- how they use their customers as affiliates in a clever ‘ambassador referral program’ they developed
- and his view on why direct to consumer businesses should be 50% innovation and 50% customer experience
