Mike catches up with Aaron Hughes from Ecommerce Wala after the visit to India to talk about Aaron's background, how he got started in Ecommerce, and the differences between working with a team vs. online.
Today, we're joined by Aaron Hughes from Ecommerce Wala.
Aaron and I met during the India Sourcing Trip, and he was by far, one of the most different while still being from the US.
I wanted to invite Aaron over to the podcast today to talk about how his ecommerce journey ended up in India, the cultural and ecommerce differences between the US and India and his company Ecommerce Wala.

Dave joins Mike in this episode to talk about the Pros and Cons of building a community and content site through affiliate marketing in comparison to a product-based business.

Mike speaks to PPC Expert Lucas Kwiatkowski from Nomadz about the things you need to do to improve your Amazon PPC, where you can find long tail keywords, and how to lower your ACoS.
Over the past 6 months, I've been diving back into the weeds of the business. So far, one of the biggest "weeds" would be optimizing my PPC spend and overhauling it to be as efficient as possible, without costing me a fortune.
And so, the research started. One of the biggest resources that I've learned from is Nomadz, and their Youtube Channel. To pay it forward, I've asked Lucas Kwiatkowski to come on the podcast and talk about everything you need to do for Amazon PPC in 2024 and beyond.
If you'd like to skip ahead to the juicy parts, here's some timestamps:
