Originally organized by IKID. Sales Are Up. So Where Did the Money Go? Scaling an eCommerce brand can look great on the surface—more orders, higher revenue, and stronger sales. But as volume grows, so do the costs that are easy to overlook. In After Checkout 02, we’ll unpack the hidden cash-flow costs of scaling an eCommerce brand and explore why growing sales don’t always translate to growing cash in the business. Because more sales should mean more money—not more cash-flow problems. What We'll Discuss? Where cash gets tied up as order volume increases The operational costs that quietly grow alongside sales How fulfillment, inventory, returns, and other post-checkout activities affect cash flow Why revenue growth can sometimes create more financial pressure instead of less What founders and operators should watch before scaling further Who Should Attend?
