My guest on this episode is Ryan Moser who most recently was the VP of Revenue Strategy at ThredUp, the world's largest fashion resale website. ThredUp has created the largest marketplace for second-hand buying and selling for fashion brands.

Ryan was one of the early members at ThredUp, and he oversaw the management and forecasting of pricing, acceptance, and markdowns, a role that required partnering with nearly every other part of the business. Pricing tens of millions of unique SKUs presents a very unique set of problems, and Ryan developed the theories and concepts that guided the work and have driven significant improvement in this space.

Our discussion focuses on the unique challenges Single SKU pricing represents and how Ryan approached this challenge with science and a great deal of ingenious creativity.
