Drop shipping doesn't have to be a dirty word! Control your brand experience, choose reliable suppliers, and prioritize product quality. You can redefine drop shipping and build a successful e-commerce business. 

In this episode, Jordan West and Izzy Rosensweig, Portless emphasize the crucial role that quality plays in building a brand. Drawing from Izzy’s personal experience growing up during the transition from the 1980s, he highlights the importance of staying ahead of the curve or going niche to avoid being left behind. They delve into the illogicality of using a 1980 supply chain for a digital business, questioning the need for physical products on shelves, and advocating for efficient transportation methods that bring products closer to customers.
