Andrew sits down with Chad Carlton, CEO of Good Company, a 3PL that ships over 3 million orders annually for fewer than 20 clients. In this tactical deep dive, they walk through every step of the fulfillment journey—from the moment your product hits the warehouse to when it lands at your customer’s door.

You’ll learn:

- Why most brands treat their 3PLs wrong—and how to fix it
- The real cost structure behind pick, pack, and postage
- When it makes sense to fulfill in-house vs outsource
- How to reduce returns and increase resellable inventory
- What "alignment of incentives" really looks like in logistics

Real numbers, strategic decisions, and operational leverage that can drive profitability are candidly explored—especially in a margin-compressed environment.

Whether you're considering switching 3PLs, scaling to multiple warehouses, or fixing your supply chain slippage, this episode gives you the framework to make better, more profitable decisions.
