Is your brand ready for retail, or are you just following the crowd? On this 191st episode of The E-Comm Show, Andrew Maff sits down with Lauren Campbell, CMO of Firefly Recovery, to explore what it really takes to grow a DTC wellness brand without leaning on Amazon or retail crutches.
In this episode, Lauren shares how she evolved the brand’s messaging from elite athletic recovery to everyday wellness, expanded into the travel market based on real customer feedback, and resisted the pressure to "go Amazon" too early. If you're a marketer looking to build with intention (without defaulting to marketplaces or mass retail), this one’s for you.
What You’ll Learn:
- How to reposition a niche product for a broader, more scalable audience
- How to prioritize brand integrity over short-term marketplace gains (and why Amazon is a long-game, not a launchpad)
- Why bundling products around customer use cases can help with segmentation and tracking traction
Why testimonials are still gold and how Firefly scaled on social proof
How to build a clean D2C engine from scratch without falling back on third-party sellers or unscalable tactics

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
