Exclusive: Meta names Connor Hayes head of Threads

Longtime Meta executive Connor Hayes has been named head of Threads, Axios has learned, marking a significant milestone for the two-year old product. Why it matters: Instagram head Adam Mosseri has overseen Threads since its inception, but as the app has grown, so too has its need for a leader solely focused on its future. " Given Threads' maturity, we think we need a dedicated app lead who can focus all of their time on helping Threads move forward," Mosseri wrote in a Thursday staff memo obtained by Axios. Zoom in: Mosseri said Hayes will begin his new role by mid-September and will report to him directly. Once onboarded, all product managers, engineers, designers, data scientists and user experience researchers working on Threads will report in through Hayes, he added. Threads data engineers will continue reporting through Brad Ruderman, Meta's senior director of data engineering. Catch up quick: Hayes was part of the original team that built the first version of Threads when it launched in 2023. He later served as Meta's vice president of product for generative AI. Hayes first joined Facebook in 2011 and has served in various product roles across Meta and Instagram over the past 14 years. Zoom out: The move comes as Threads continues to grow rapidly around the world. While X is still the dominant real-time, social discourse platform in terms of global daily web visits, Threads is on the cusp of catching up in terms of mobile app users, according to Similarweb data. Between the lines: Meta launched Threads in 2023 as an offshoot of Instagram. Having access to Instagram's user base of more than 1 billion people helped Threads grow quickly, especially compared to other real-time, social discourse apps like Mastodon and Bluesky. In his staff note, Mosseri said Threads now has more than 350 million monthly users. Between the lines: When Threads first launched, the product was closely linked to Instagram. Today, it's "grown into a platform with its own culture, its own energy, and a rapidly growing community," Mosseri said. To that point, he added that more than a third of daily Threads users with connections follow different accounts on Threads than on Instagram. "It's exciting to see Threads establishing its own unique user base," he noted. What to watch: Meta continues to roll out new Threads features that make the app more akin to X, formerly Twitter, which launched in 2006.

27-Year-Old Grows DTC Business From $60,000 to Over $500,000

Ruth Sack, 27, grew up with Streets Ahead, the luxury leather accessories brand her father, David Sack, founded in 1982. She and her siblings painted belts with nail polish in the Los Angeles factory and attended trade shows across the country with their parents. Image Credit: Courtesy of Streets Ahead. Ruth Sack. But it wasn't until 2020 that Sack considered dedicating significant time to the brand. "I went to UCLA and studied gender studies, and then Covid hit," Sack says. "I didn't really know what I wanted to do. I started helping out with the family business because things were pretty tough, and I actually sort of loved it." Sack went on to attend the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising (FIDM) and step in as Streets Ahead's head of marketing and design.

Streets Ahead's products are made locally in California with leather and hardware sourced from Italy, and the brand is known for its novelty pieces — "bestselling belts [with] crazy heart hardware with chains and snakes and things like that" — that have been spotted on numerous celebrities, including Beyoncé during her Cowboy Carter tour. Image Credit: Courtesy of Streets Ahead The brand built on its success as a legacy wholesale business over the decades, but when Sack joined the team, she wanted to explore its potential in the direct-to-consumer (DTC) space. As it turns out, there was a lot: In just a few years, Sack grew DTC revenue from $60,000 to more than $500,000. Streets Ahead is projected to hit $3.2 million to $3.5 million in total revenue in 2025, with $2.7 million to $3 million from wholesale and $500,000 to $600,000 from DTC.

Streets Ahead's foray into DTC sales started with a website refresh. "We always had a website, but [no one ran it]," Sack says. "It didn't really make any money. It was never up to date. So I came in and changed the platform to Shopify, kind of just revamped the whole thing, and started adding products and keeping it up to date. And immediately we saw a difference." Once her parents saw the results, they were even more willing to invest in the brand's DTC strategy. Streets Ahead leaned into professional content creation and advertising and continued to see its DTC sales grow. Related: 6 Questions You Need to Ask Yourself Before Launching a Direct to Consumer Brand Part of the brand's digital transformation also included a logo overhaul, Sack says. The company featured the new design across its social media platforms and started to generate interest from major influencers like Rocky Barnes, who boasts more than three million followers on Instagram and 200,000 followers on TikTok. " She found us through an ad that we were running, and she wanted the exact belts from the ad," Sack recalls. "So we started doing some gifting, and we could see that it worked. As we built our social presence, especially Instagram and ads, we got so many DMs, and now they keep coming." Image Credit: Courtesy of Streets Ahead "99% of the time we're making it from scratch." Sack would love to sell more on TikTok, but the platform's quick-ship requirements prove challenging for the made-to-order brand, as "everything is essentially custom" and takes time to manufacture. Whereas other companies might have thousands of units sitting in a warehouse ready to ship, every time Streets Ahead receives an order, that request is sent down to the factory, which starts the production process. "We don't have anything made here unless there was a return and we have [that returned product]," Sack says. "99% of the time we're making it from scratch."

Because of Streets Ahead's branding and social media presence, it can get "a little bit lost" on people that each item really is custom-made for them, Sack notes. The company follows up on particularly large orders to confirm them before moving forward with fulfillment. What's more, despite the business's made-to-order model, Streets Ahead does accept returns. " I buy things that I want to try and might return — we all do it," Sack says. "If we want to have this type of direct-to-consumer [platform], there has to be some kind of return. People need to try things on. They don't know their size. So we do allow returns, [but] we've now started to put a little tag on [products] that says, If this tag is removed, we can't accept the return, to prevent people from wearing it and then sending it back." "You have to be okay doing the grunt work." As Sack considers Street Ahead's future and her own role within it, she's excited to expand the brand's offerings beyond belts. The brand dropped its first handbag collection last month, and Sack says she'd love to branch into shoes, particularly leather boots and sandals with hardware, down the line.

"You have to be okay doing the grunt work," Sack says. "There are some days I'm down shipping, some days I'm cleaning buckles, things that someone as a designer or creative director doesn't necessarily want to do. But you need to be a team player and be willing to know every single role."

New Tesla report reveals staggering extent of automaker's problems with Cybertruck: 'The final product was disappointing'

While more drivers are going electric, interest in Tesla's Cybertruck seems to be diminishing, as a new report revealed sales aren't living up to expectations. What's happening? According to Electrek, a Tesla delivery report revealed the EV company planned for a Cybertruck production capacity of more than 250,000 units annually. However, the company is selling just about 20,000 units per year. "The final product was disappointing in that the promised specs were not delivered," one commenter wrote. Tesla's second-quarter report also showed results from the brand's "other models" category, which includes the Cybertruck. Other models sales are significantly lower now than before the Cybertruck joined the group, per Electrek. The Cybertruck also faced stiff competition from other electric pickups on the market. While sales for Ford's F-150 Lightning dipped year over year, the automaker still sold about 5,800 units. GM had an edge in the category too, given the combined sales of its various electric pickup options. Why are electric vehicle sales important? Another report found that at least 1 in 4 cars sold worldwide in 2025 will be an EV. Per the International Energy Agency, the market is expected to exceed 20 million EVs sold this year. Experts have called EV market growth a vital factor in curbing the effects of heat-trapping pollution. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, EVs produce zero tailpipe emissions, making the planet-friendly options a more efficient way to travel than gas-powered alternatives. Despite the booming EV market, Tesla sales have struggled in 2025. Some analysts have attributed the downfall to Tesla CEO Elon Musk's involvement in politics. According to Reuters, Tesla needs to deliver more than 1 million vehicles in the second half of the year to prevent an annual sales drop. What's being done about Tesla? There have been some signs of a turnaround for Tesla in Europe. Teslarati reported that EV registrations spiked in the United Kingdom, Spain, and the Netherlands, with Tesla topping EV sales charts for June. The company also introduced the updated Model Y in Australia, which prompted a boost in sales in May. For the time being, it seems like drivers can find a good deal in the used EV market. A report found that some older Tesla models were being sold for more than $50,000 below their original prices. Not only that, but buying a used EV can save drivers hundreds of dollars on gas and maintenance each year.
