Our pod guest this week is Matt Halfhill, founder of Nice Kicks - one of the most popular content websites in the footwear/streetwear industry.

Matt spent years as a sneaker reseller, eeking out a healthy margin on platforms like eBay, but he soon realized the value is in creating your own product that you have the creative freedom to promote as you see fit.

According to Matt’s predictions - if you rely on other people’s products, your days are numbered. Every producer is moving towards a DTC model in this time of profound change as legacy businesses across all industries adopt to the new norm. (Hello and welcome to DTC - you’re in the right place 😉)

This is why product creation is a major initiative for Nice Kicks in 2021.

Services and products are investing so heavily in content that it only makes sense that content websites are looking to create products.

Take a listen to the full pod for discussion of the above, plus:
