Hire the Best Freight Forwarding Professionals
Chicago, Illinois
Licensed freight forwarder + DTC founder. Operator, not consultant Most freight people don't understand what happens after the container clears customs. Most ecommerce consultants have never read a bill of lading. I'm one of the few people who does both, every day, in my own businesses. **By the numbers** • 5+ years running North Star Global, our family's NVOCC-licensed freight forwarder with a Chicago warehouse and proprietary shipment tracking platform • 4 years building Crystal Clean, a premium DTC cat litter brand on Shopify + Amazon — personally configured the full stack (Shopify, Recharge, Klaviyo with 11 live flows, Okendo, Smile io, Meta Ads) • Full landed-cost models built from scratch (HTS classification, 2026 tariff stack including Section 232/301 and IEEPA, 40HQ container economics) • 24-month cohort retention models with LTV, CAC payback, and ad spend scenarios **What I help with** • Amazon FBA — listings, review velocity, Subscribe & Save, account health, shipment planning • Shopify DTC — theme customization, Klaviyo flows, Recharge subscriptions, referral programs, post-purchase optimization • Meta paid acquisition — creative strategy, account structure (Andromeda), budget pacing • Supply chain design — sourcing, freight forwarding, customs, 3PL, landed-cost reduction • Ecommerce financial modeling — unit economics, cohort retention, P&L, forecasting **How I work** Project-based or fractional. I'll tell you up front if I'm not the right fit, I don't take engagements where I can't move the needle. When I'm in, I move fast, document as I go, and communicate issues with a fix already proposed. Send me a message with what you're working on. I respond within a few hours. Thanks, Greg
