  • Nike's Phil Knight: How to Sell Without Selling
    Masters of Scale Episode Transcript – Phil Knight “Nike’s Phil Knight: How to sell without selling” Click here to listen to the full Masters of Scale episode featuring Phil Knight. EDDY LU: I grew up in the ’80s, and that was when Michael Jordan was in his prime. ​ All the commercials and the visual imagery of Michael Jordan dunking, shattering backboards, and criss-crossing over people. That was my impression, of course. What shoes was he wearing? He was wearing his Jordans. You know, his Nikes. HOFFMAN: That’s Eddy Lu, cofounder of GOAT, the online marketplace for premium sneakers ​ ​ ​ that every sneakerhead knows. As a child of the ’80s and a basketball fan, Eddy has vivid memories of Jordan – and his Nikes. Jordan played his first NBA game for the Chicago Bulls in 1984, and signed his Nike endorsement deal the same year. Right away, he started making news, making plays… and Nike started making Air Jordans. ​ ​ LU: I still remember the price tag. They were $130 at Foot Locker. I couldn't afford ’em. ​ ​ ​ Like any kid, you want something, but your parents will buy you something that's comparable. So instead of the Jordans, they maybe would get me the Penny Hardaways ​ or even the Charles Barkleys, or another shoe that was worn by an iconic player, but ​ ​ they just couldn't justify buying the premium Jordans. And I think that really helped fuel my passion and my nostalgia for sneakers, and even Jordans, right to this day. GOAT stands for Greatest Of All Time. We love sneakers, Michael Jordan was our idol, and he was the GOAT.
