This episode is brought to you by Ecomm Breakthrough Consulting where I help seven-figure e-commerce owners grow to eight figures. Of course...

Listen Nathan,

I started Hadley Designs in 2015 and grew it to an 8 figure brand in seven years.

I made mistakes along the way that made the path to 8 figures longer. At times I doubted whether our business could even survive and become a real brand. I wish I would have had a guide to help me grow faster and avoid the stumbling blocks.
