Xander Shepherd is the co-founder of Artet, a brand that is changing the way we gather, toast, and experience cocktail culture. Rooted in tradition with a modern twist, Artet was founded by two brothers, and their cousin who wanted to create an alcohol-free alternative that blends sophisticated mixology with nuanced botanical flavors.  With its amaro-inspired aperitif and a selection of elevated canned spritzes, Artet offers a hemp-derived Delta-9 THC-infused experience that is both refined and approachable—perfect for those seeking an NA option to savor at the table amongst family and friends.  In This Conversation We Discuss: [00:00] Intro [02:17] Finding Ecommerce ideas in daily life  [05:48] Experimenting in small, safe spaces [10:29] Sponsor: Migrate [12:27] Reshaping customer perspectives [18:22] Callouts [18:32] Navigating customer purchase friction [21:11] Presenting your product as opportunity [25:05] Sponsor: Intelligems [27:05] Navigating state-by-state THC rules [31:50] Protecting customers with age checks [36:22] Sponsor: Electric Eye [37:31] Setting high standards for the industry [47:10] Connecting customers to buying paths  Resources: Subscribe to Honest Ecommerce on Youtube The original THC aperitif artet.com/ Follow Xander Shepherd linkedin.com/in/xandershepherd/ Migrate and grow more klaviyo.com/honest    Book a demo today at intelligems.io/ Schedule an intro call with one of our experts electriceye.io/connect If you’re enjoying the show, we’d love it if you left Honest Ecommerce a review on Apple Podcasts.
