Global Wired Advisors is an investment bank that focuses on digital-first brands in the consumer product marketplace, says managing partner Chris Shipferling.
"I'm not trying to sell aerospace businesses or agriculture businesses or manufacturing companies," Chris says. "We only sell consumer products. That's it, specifically digital-first. So every day we wake up, and we're only talking to an audience interested in these types of companies."
With the current state of the economy and interest rates rising, the baby, pet, toy, home, and kitchen categories are likely to experience a slowdown, Chris predicts.
In Part 1, Chris talks about:
* Gratitude toward his first boss who saw potential in the college graduate with no business experience.
* An explanation of Global Wired Advisors' business and how they differ from other investment banks.
* An analysis of the current economy and likely slowdowns and areas for potential expansion.
Join Ramon Vela and Chris Shipferling as they break down the inside story on The Story of a Brand.

If all DTC companies were forced to turn off Facebook ads, they'd be dead on arrival. Why is that?
