Episode Synopsis
Welcome to the Evolvepreneur (After Hours) Show
I am your Special Host Richard Wray
Join me today where we dig deep with our guests and get you the best concepts and strategies to fast-track your business.
My very special guest today is Jeff Barnes ...
Jeff Barnes discussed how he grew an e-commerce business from $0 to $17 million in revenue in just 8 months. However, issues with a supplier in China led to the business facing bankruptcy after they were unable to fulfill orders for 6 weeks without informing Jeff. Jeff touched on lessons learned like the importance of checking orders and having transparency in the supply chain. He also stressed the need to carefully consider costs and have the right team in place to support growth. While the business failed, Jeff was able to leverage his marketing skills to start an agency and also continues to advise other entrepreneurs on scaling. An interesting point was how a single unreliable supplier can bring down an entire rapidly growing business.
