- Dark stores and the 10-minute promise: packing time plus delivery time within a short radius
- Every touchpoint can fail: app, packing, expired items, delivery, customer support
- Customer acquisition cost vs lifetime value, and why retention matters
- Why the guest says quick commerce profits are thin
- Platform fees, handling charges and minimum-order brackets
- SaaS, PaaS and 'Distribution as a Service'
