Founders and CEOs on Building a Successful E-Commerce Business
Dear Friends,
Authority Magazine is launching a new series called:
Founders and CEOs on Building a Successful E-Commerce Business
E-commerce looks easy from the outside, but the reality is tougher. Customer acquisition costs rise, platforms change their rules overnight, fulfillment can break your margins, and one bad supply chain decision can wipe out months of progress. At the same time, there has never been more opportunity for founders who know how to build trust, create a product people actually want, and run the operation with discipline. We want to spotlight the leaders who have built e-commerce businesses that truly work, and share the lessons, strategies, and hard-earned mistakes that others can learn from.
In this interview series, we would like to talk to founders, CEOs, and e-commerce leaders about “Founders and CEOs On Building a Successful E-Commerce Business”.
In addition, after all interviews are completed, a roundup article featuring the best ideas will be published in Buzzfeed.
Individuals who are accepted for this series will be featured in at least 1 - 3 articles
Jim Hamel and Yitzi Weiner will be the primary leads for the series. Most interviews will not require phone interviews and can be done by email.
