Reading "were not profitable" in a notes app font from a founder/ceo of a San Fran DTC apparel company who just got called out by a sitting senator running for the democratic nomination in the US for what looks like union busting at the time of a global pandemic was not on my bingo card. But there it is. Why are they not profitable at the scale they were at? Weak margins / unit economics? Friday's catered lunch? CAC?
It is impossible to scale a business with keystoned margins, no matter how much you sell of something.
