Drew Sanocki from DesignPublic.com is a drop shipping pioneer. He got his feet wet in eCommerce in 2003, and drop shipping allowed him to get started with very little capital.

This week I’ve invited Drew back on the podcast to have a very frank and candid discussion about his personal history with drop shipping, and the pros and cons of this polarizing tactic.
