Even a decade into eCommerce, I am still often amazed by the variety of things that people make a living from selling online. From high-end toilet seats to live chickens, it never ceases to blow my mind, and it’s so cool to see people build really niche, and really interesting, businesses. In today’s episode, I’m flying solo and diving into the nitty-gritty of our Charlotte event. I’ll be sharing some of the more interesting and unique takeaways that came out of the event and giving you a flavor of what you can expect at a regional event.
Listen in as I go over interesting takeaways from not only a tactical perspective, but also from a fun and personal perspective. You’ll hear examples of amazing brand and customer experiences, what it was like walking through a FedEx facility (I highly recommend everyone do this at some point in their life), and one of the most popular facets of the event.
You’ll learn:
- The overall vibe of the Charlotte event. (3:20)
- One of the more interesting advertising concepts. (4:30)
- The importance of rest. (13:00)
- What it was like touring a FedEx facility. (15:00)
- The value of problem-solving pods. (19:30)

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.
