The Studio and E-commerce Collective is heading to NYC

Applications for The Collective NYC, Thursday 22nd October, are open now.

The first ever Studio and E-Commerce Collective event took place in London at the Treehouse in Shoreditch, with speakers from Burberry and Sweaty Betty among those on stage. It also doubled as a celebration of Lets Flo turning ten this year. Read the full recap in Episode 9, or listen to this episode wherever you get your podcasts.

"Reducing shot count is rarely about saving money. Usually it is about giving the customer a clearer choice."
