2024 E-commerce Insights: How To Sell To Americans In The Comfort Of Your Home? [Chills 155 ft WorldFirst]

Our next guest built a multi-million dollar direct-to-consumer business from nothing—but his journey wasn't without its bumps along the way. Today on the show, he opens up like never before about the high-stakes gambles, expensive mistakes, and painful lessons of scaling a disruptive Direct To Consumer (DTC) brand.

From unexpected starts selling eBooks on eBay as a university student, to pivoting into the cutthroat world of supplement sales, you'll hear firsthand how naive risks almost sank the ship. Discover what it really takes to navigate manufacturing minefields, exploding growth, and the complacency that triggered an unplanned overhaul.
