The 2026 eCom Trends Report
Top Report Findings: This is our sixth Trends Report with 300 owners representing $3.5...
A few years back I caught up with Clayton Chrisman who purchased TrollingMotors.net from me.
I learned how much better the business was doing once it was freed from the shackles and constraints of its incompetent previous owner (much better, it turned out).
So I thought it’d be fun to catch up with Pat Haggerty 18 months after he purchased Right Channel Radios. I wanted to see see if it was enjoying a similar post-sale renaissance, and what life was like moving from employee to owner.
In today’s episode we talk about:
- Why Pat wasn’t worried about the drop shipping business model in the face of Amazon
- The challenges of being a solo owner/operator
- If I (Andrew) regret selling the business
(With your host Andrew Youderian of eCommerceFuel.com and Pat Haggerty from Right Channel Radios)

Post by Andrew Youderian
Founder and Chief Instigator, eComFuel
Andrew quit an early finance job to sell CB radios online — an admittedly unorthodox career path. It set him on a course to found and sell multiple businesses, host a decade-running podcast, lecture at Harvard Business School and create eComFuel, the leading community for 7- and 8-figure online business owners. Andrew is fascinated with branding, AI, building community, investing and growing meaningful businesses that don't require sacrificing what truly matters.
