In this episode, we sit down with Alex Ecomzs, a Newcastle-based e-commerce entrepreneur who’s built a thriving online business by mastering the digital marketplace. He takes us back to where it all started, sharing how he first got into e-commerce, the early struggles of building an online brand, and the key lessons he’s learned along the way.
But it hasn’t been a straight path—Alex opens up about the challenges of scaling a business, the mindset shifts needed to break through financial ceilings, and the sacrifices that come with the entrepreneurial grind. We dive into the impact of risk-taking, the psychology behind decision-making in business, and how discipline plays a crucial role in turning ideas into profit.
We also get into the importance of adaptability in a rapidly changing market, the hidden pitfalls of e-commerce success, and the mental resilience required to stay ahead. Alex shares his take on balancing ambition with sustainability, avoiding burnout, and why long-term thinking separates the winners from those who burn out chasing short-term gains.
This is a no-nonsense conversation packed with insights on business growth, mindset, and the real journey behind financial independence. Whether you’re into e-commerce, entrepreneurship, or just want an inside look at what it takes to build something from the ground up, this is one you won’t want to miss.
