Toys R Us has been a very nostalgic brand and a lot of our hearts were broken when it filed for bankruptcy. Seeing our favorite kid's toy store close down was hard on our young hearts at the time.

But guess what? Toy R Us is partnering up with Macy's (again) to open 400 shop-in-shops in Macy's stores! What a time to be alive. This is going to be quite interesting.

What's up, everybody? We have Kevin Boateng who is the owner of multiple dropshipping stores and a private labeling brand.

Kevin will explain the pros and cons of both models, why private labeling can help you create sustainable e-commerce businesses, how to talk to suppliers to create your products, validating your idea, and doubling down on marketing efforts once validated.

Coraline Faure is here with us today from Lyon, France to give a different perspective of e-commerce in her current market of France and Europe.

We are here with Ollie Ecom to break down his story on how he leveraged his time during the pandemic to create dropshipping businesses and escape from the 9-5.

We go over how lucky he got with one of these products as he was one of the first entrepreneurs to dropship his product... however this does not discredit his e-commerce skills.

With what he learned through this experience he was able to replicate important aspects of this one dropshipping store to scale his business and incorporate it into his newer store.

Ollie favors marketing more than the whole process of running an e-commerce store as we also go over Facebook ads, marketing, and the importance of being creative.
