## Resource

Lucas and Luna break down how a single-store mattress retailer in Brooklyn grew to over $100 million in annual revenue without owning a single factory or warehouse. They explore the magic of drop-shipping, the role of customer service as a competitive moat, and the specific moment the founder realized she needed to stop selling mattresses and start selling sleep. A rare look at asset-light scaling in a heavy industry. #MattressScaling #DropShipModel #AssetLight #SleepEconomy #BrooklynStartup #CustomerServiceMoat #FounderStory #BootstrappedGrowth #HundredMillionRevenue #NoFactory #EcommerceScaling #Business #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #ScalingUp #SmallBusinessGrowth #MidMarket #DirectToConsumer Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
