Nick Bartlett, a 4PL logistics operator, shares how years running logistics operations across global markets shaped his no-nonsense playbook for DTC brands trying to survive supply chain chaos.

Protect your margins and your stock when freight markets go sideways — using the exact logistics playbook Nick breaks down on the DTC Daily podcast.

Nick's experience proves you don't need a massive supply chain team to build a resilient logistics operation.

In this podcast, Nick breaks down:

  • Why auditing supplier dependency is the first thing to do when markets get disrupted

  • How recalculating your landed cost fast can stop you from absorbing losses quietly until it's too late

  • The difference between a 3PL and a 4PL, and which one actually fits your stage

  • Why the real cost of a bad logistics partner never shows up on your P&L

  • The three hidden fee traps founders keep falling into across freight, fulfillment, and last mile delivery

If you're shipping product anywhere in the world right now, Nick's playbook gives you the exact questions to ask, the red flags to catch early, and the moves to make before the disruption hits your stock levels.
