E407: The Year of Uncontrollable Circumstances in Ecommerce


Listen Later

We’ve made the jump to video podcasts! You can now not only listen, but watch full episodes on the EcomCrew Podcast YouTube channel.

 

Today, Dave and I are excited to catch-up and talk about our businesses, and how 2021 has been for us so far. In my opinion, it’s been the hardest year in ecommerce ever since I started 8 years ago, and that’s because of the uncontrollable circumstances that have been plaguing the industry. 

 

But Dave seems to disagree. 

 

We explore Dave’s side of the story, why stress is at an all time high, and the progress of my newest acquisition.
