In this episode…

Some people stuck in the 9-5 grind want a “get-rich-quick” solution. While such shortcuts don’t exist without hard work, e-commerce provides opportunities to live life on your terms through its global reach. How can you leverage this growing space to begin developing passive income?

Seasoned e-commerce entrepreneur Will Basta can travel, live, and work in various countries at his leisure. He’s achieved this freedom by identifying and capitalizing on profitable opportunities in the digital market. Yet entrepreneurship in this space has its failures, so Will emphasizes evaluating these opportunities carefully and diversifying your risk across multiple markets. When you expand your product and market horizons, you can build an automated enterprise that gives you personal and professional freedoms.

In the latest episode of The Guts and Glory Show, Luis Scott welcomes Will Basta, the Partner and Chief Business Officer at ACV, who talks about building an e-commerce business for passive income. Will discusses the mindset shifts, investment strategies, and risk-reward balances for entrepreneurship in this space.
