E654: What are the biggest profitability differences between 6 and 8 figure sellers?

In this episode, Parag from WebGility shares what he's observed in the profitability differences between six, seven, and eight-figure e-commerce sellers. Other than that, Parag also dives into SKU level economics, overlooked fees, and the best channels to expand to, to maximize profits.
Accounting is one of the most boring things about e-commerce.
But it remains to be one of the most important parts of running an e-commerce business.
Because if you are only keeping an eye on your top-line revenue, you might be overlooking an important aspect of your profitability.
That's why in today's episode I'm joined by Parag Mamnani, the CEO of Webgility, where we talk about the most overlooked factors that affect profitability and what the biggest differences are between 6, and 8 figure sellers.
