In today’s episode, my guest is Stephen Somers. He is the Co-Founder and CEO of Marketplace Superheroes, an online education company that helps people learn how to sell their own products globally on Amazon, from complete scratch. Together with his business partner, Robert, they've sold over $12m of products on Amazon and helped over 7,000 people learn to do the same. They’ve built an 8-figure coaching and services business, along with a consolidated freight company over the last number of years.

Today we’re going to talk about his journey, about freight forwarding, about the latest tactics on Amazon, and everything related to entrepreneurship in 2021
