In this week's podcast, I sit down with Robert who has been in the Ecom game since 2017, running ads before most people even knew what dropshipping or ecommerce was, and scaling million-dollar brands internationally long before UGC became the industry’s favourite buzzword.

Today he’s running a 7-figure agency, pioneering a new commission-only model, and helping brands win on Meta using a creative system most marketers don’t even know exists.

In this week’s episode, we break down:

• Why creative diversity is the new unfair advantage, how to test hooks, angles, and personas the right way, and how this simple system helps you find winning ads faster

• How he uses AI to save time by generating new ideas, new angles, and new versions of ads without falling into the “robot-looking content” trap

• The commission-only model that lets clients scale without paying a single dollar upfront

• The most common mistakes he sees inside ad accounts and the simple fixes that instantly improve performance

• How he built a lifestyle across Amsterdam, Dubai, Barcelona, and Miami while staying consistent in business

• What he’s learned about building a successful agency, achieving financial and location freedom, and staying sharp in an industry that changes every month

If you want to learn the strategies brands are using right now to grow fast and stand out in a crowded market, this episode is a must-watch. Robert breaks everything down in a simple, actionable way.

In this week’s podcast, I sit down with Saamir, who launched his first e-commerce business at just 15!

By 18 he was already generating big numbers.

Now at just 21, he’s running a portfolio of ecom brands and has scaled past $20M per/year.

What stood out to me in this conversation isn’t just the numbers, though…

It’s the awareness, the honesty, and the way he thinks about growth on a level most people don’t reach until much later in life.

In this week’s podcast, we get into:

• How he spots opportunities with new products, before the market wakes up to see them
• His creative volume system — 20–30 tests a day, and why speed is the real advantage on Meta right now
• How he uses AI to collapse time, cut through noise, and get to “what’s actually working” faster
• The mindset behind pushing past plateaus, staying hungry, and surrounding yourself with people who raise your standards

What I appreciate about Saamir is that there’s no ego in the conversation.

Just clarity, conviction, and a genuine desire to keep leveling up, not just financially, but as a person, operator, and leader.

His story is a reminder that your twenties can be the most transformative years of your life if you channel your focus correctly.

If you’re interested in making ecom your main vehicle to wealth, this episode will give you the push to take it to the next level.

In the last 12 months, Omar went from launching his very first ad on October 28th, 2024…

to generating over £500,000 in revenue, all while raising two kids and building a life completely on his terms.

Now scaling his supplement brand Elixir, he sits down with me to break down the real story behind rapid growth, pressure, and staying grounded when your life changes fast.

In this episode we cover:

• How he went from total beginner to £500K/year inside 12 months
• What it’s really like building a business while being a father of 2
• How he’s now scaling his supplement brand Elixir using data, systems, and AI
• The mindset, pressure, and comparison that come with growing fast, and how he stays grounded.

Omar opens up on the discipline, vision, and internal pressure behind building both a family and a high-performing ecom machine, and why refusing to slow down has become one of his greatest strengths.

If you’re building your first store or pushing for your next level, this episode will land deep.
