What’s the eCommerce Fastlane Podcast All About?

I’m Steve Hutt, and I host the eCommerce Fastlane podcast, where I connect the dots between Shopify app and marketing platform founders and the DTC brands who need their solutions.

Over the past 9 years, we’ve built something pretty special – 1.5M+ downloads and 400+ episodes of real, actionable conversations. No fluff, just the strategies that actually work for Shopify brands looking to grow and scale.

Who Do We Feature as Guests?

I’m always looking for founders who are building tools and strategies that help DTC brands win. Specifically:

• Shopify App founders creating solutions that solve real problems
• Marketing platform builders with proven results for e-commerce
• Agency owners who’ve cracked the code on profitable growth

The common thread? You’re helping brands improve efficiency, grow revenue profitably, or build stronger customer relationships.

Why Should You Care About Being on the Show?

Our audience isn’t just browsing – they’re actively seeking solutions. These are marketing teams and founders at scaling DTC brands who trust our recommendations because we’ve done the work to vet what actually moves the needle.

When you share your story and insights on our show, you’re connecting directly with the brands that need exactly what you’re building.
