The podcast will make sense if you're listening to just the audio version, but there is a lot more value in the visuals in the video if you're able to watch.

Black Friday as gotten boring... It's the same old sales every year, confusing coupon codes, no emotional connection, and brands are standing out less and less in the inbox.

What if your best customers never had to touch a coupon code again and instantly saw their VIP pricing the second they logged in? And not just saw VIP pricing, but FELT like a VIP. In today’s 1% Win, I break down how you can unlock true member-style pricing on Shopify. With 79% of consumers saying loyalty programs make them more likely to stick with a brand, and VIP shoppers spending 3x more than average customers, this simple tweak will transform your revenue.

If you’re still treating TikTok like “just another social channel,” you’re leaving Shopify revenue on the table. TikTok Shop isn’t a toy, it’s a MASSIVE sales engine. Global GMV doubled to roughly $26.2B in H1 2025, and the platform now pushes all Shop ads into GMV Max to optimize for conversions, not vanity metrics. In this episode, I sit down with Jordan West of Social Commerce Club to unpack a practical playbook for Shopify brands: creator-led selling, the blitz-launch strategy, and how to sync orders back to Shopify without chaos. TikTok is becoming a primary sales channel.

• Why TikTok Shop is a sales channel, not “just content,” and how creator incentives make it perform like commission-only sales at scale.

• The Blitz Launch: seed 100 to 200 creators, stack spend on day one, let GMV Max amplify the winners, and trigger the flywheel of organic plus paid.

• Smart commissioning: when a seemingly “high” 40 percent organic commission can actually beat your blended paid CAC math.

• The new ad reality: GMV Max becomes the default for Shop ads, so success hinges on more tagged UGC and broader creative variety.

• Product fit and pricing: why sub-$100 AOV with bundle options tends to work best for TikTok Shop, and when to think twice about high-AOV categories.

• Ops without headaches: use a connector to push TikTok orders back into Shopify for fulfillment and returns.

• Creator sourcing at scale: how to find, brief, and manage creators with discovery tools and off-platform communities that keep momentum high.

• Market proof points: TikTok’s shopper base and adoption continue to surge, with tens of millions of US buyers and majority consumer penetration.

Most Shopify entrepreneurs don’t fail because of bad products or weak SEO. They fail because of one thing: they run out of money. In fact, 83% of businesses are not profitable, and yet the majority of Shopify stores never stop to address this until it’s too late. In today’s episode, I sit down with bestselling author Mike Michalowicz (Profit First, Clockwork, The Money Habit) to talk about eradicating “entrepreneurial poverty.”

We dive into money habits, why hustle culture is a scam, and the practical systems every Shopify store owner needs to build a sustainable business. Trust me — if you think profit is something you’ll “hit” one day, this episode will change the way you see entrepreneurship forever.

Key Take-aways

• Why most Shopify businesses fail, and why it’s rarely because of the product.

• The Profit First framework and why profitability isn’t an event, it’s a habit.

• How founder burnout and poor money habits destroy great stores.

• Why removing yourself from the business (Clockwork method) is a true measure of success.

• The importance of constraints in sparking innovation and efficiency.

• Why small business isn’t just the backbone of the economy — it IS the economy.
