@matt.pickles You had asked in a DM about the Amazon e-commerce story and product SKUs — posting it here, because it may be of interest to more people.

The operations and measures are fascinating as they work within a very low margin industry. Mistakes can be the difference between profit and loss on a razor thing margin. Big mistakes can tank the stock…
