CEO / Lacer Performance (name change coming soon for next stage in the company)
LP is a product research + retail distribution company that purchases tangible products wholesale from manufacturers, and distributes them to the retail customer/end-user, primarily on the Amazon marketplace.
One of my main goals in life is to think about distribution and create theories to figure out what that word really means. My background before this company was in poker and in game theory, so I love creating new games and assigning probabilities to the different outcomes. If I learn some new game theory concepts in the process then it's a huge win.
(yes, sorry - LP needs to work on our public facing side(s) but all I want to do is stay in my head to learn/think, build the team, build+work on new projects and get to my idea of the future that I want to see, as soon as I/we can)
Please feel free to send me a message so that we could talk about the most random of things. What can I/we do to help you?
Thanks for reading!
