This week on the Hammersley Brothers eCommerce Podcast, we continue our series on the stages of ecommerce growth.
After covering the 0 to 100K stage last week, this episode focuses on the next major step: growing from 100K to 500K per year.
This is where many ecommerce businesses start to feel like they have something real. But it is also the stage where founders often make the mistakes that stop them from scaling.
In this episode, we break down:
• Why 100K to 500K is the danger zone for ecommerce brands
• How shiny object syndrome slows down growth
• Why most new tactics, platforms, and trends are distractions
• The “beer mat test” for simplifying your ecommerce business
• Why agencies often fail at this stage?
• The numbers you actually need to understand before scaling
• Why looking at too many numbers can hurt your business
• How to avoid spreading your budget across too many marketing channels
• Why profit, cash, and focus matter more than attribution obsession
If your ecommerce business is doing around 100K per year and you want to get to 500K, this episode will help you understand what to focus on, what to ignore, and how to avoid adding complexity too early.
