In this insightful episode of The Bottom Line, we sit down with Drew Fallon, co-founder and CEO of Iris, an AI-powered profit planning platform for consumer brands. As the former CFO of MadRabbit, Fallon brings a wealth of experience in financial forecasting and analysis for e-commerce businesses.
The conversation dives deep into the intricacies of P&L management, forecasting methodologies, and the critical importance of understanding unit economics. Fallon shares valuable insights on the differences between good and bad growth, emphasizing that top-line revenue increases can sometimes mask underlying issues in a company's financial health. He uses the example of Allbirds to illustrate how aggressive expansion without proper attention to gross margins and operational efficiency can lead to significant problems.
