My guest today is Jeremy Cai, founder and CEO of Italic, a subscription marketplace for consumer goods that works directly with manufacturers. I was introduced to Jeremy by my friend Blake Robbins and was dying to better understand the Italic business model. In our conversation, we discuss the business model, the evolving role of manufacturers in supply chains, and the concept of building the next generation's everything store. As you all know, I love learning about and discovering new business models, and this was fun to dig into. Please enjoy my conversation with Jeremy Cai.
Italic's Business Model
So, Jeremy, I've been so looking forward to this one. I came across your business through our mutual friend, Blake Robbins, and was sort of instantly obsessed with the business model. And maybe we could just start there on Italic. We're going to talk about a lot more than just Italic today, I think, but it's a great place to start. It's such an interesting business. Could you lay out the business model first and then we'll talk a little bit about the product itself that consumers enjoy?
