About this listen
Most DTC brands lose 15-30% of their margin to return processing mistakes they don't even know they're making.
In this episode, discover:
- Why the "chaos corner" in your warehouse costs more than the actual refunds—from restocking delays to inventory write-offs that silently destroy profit margins
- How 50-500% return volume spikes in January-February create your biggest hidden opportunity to recover margin (not just process faster)
- The 5-minute Shopify integration that turns return data into actionable P&L insights before your next BFCM wave hits
Kyle Bertin is Co-founder and CEO of Two Boxes, a returns processing platform. His work touring major fulfillment centers at Outrider revealed the same problem everywhere: billion-dollar logistics operations with returns sections stuck 30 years in the past.
Whether you're doing $10K months or $1M months, this conversation delivers actionable insights you can implement this week.
