E-Commerce I talked with chase climber about the three KPIs to focus on to grow your eCommerce business. This is a business of eCommerce episode one 31. Charles (00:17): Welcome to the business of eCommerce. The show that helps eCommerce retailers start launch and grow their eCommerce business. I'm your host, Chuck [inaudible] I'm here today with chase climber. Chase is a cofounder of electric eye, an agency that increases sales for eCommerce brands. Chase also hosts honesty, commerce, a weekly podcast, community and educational resource providing online stores owners with honest, actionable advice to increase their sales and grow their business.
