134. Scaling and Selling an eCommerce Brand- my interview with Jaryd Krause
I recently joined Jaryd Krause on his podcast to chat about what it really takes to scale an eCommerce business and sell it successfully.
We unpacked my journey building iland co., a fashion brand I started from scratch while raising a young family, working full time, and living overseas. What started as a side project turned into a seven figure global brand with customers and stockists around the world.
In this chat, Jaryd and I talk about what happens behind the scenes of scaling an eCommerce business, the lessons I learned from my first failed exit attempt, and how I eventually secured an all cash sale to an outside buyer.
Here’s a quick peek at what we cover:
✔️ The two biggest mistakes brands make when trying to jump from six to seven figures
✔️ Why scaling too fast can backfire (and how to know when to pause)
✔️ The real process of selling your business (and what happens when a deal falls through)
✔️ How to align your business growth with your long term goals
If you’re an eCommerce founder dreaming of scaling, selling, or simply building a business with real value, this one’s for you.
