About this episode
Running a business can sometimes feel like a dream come true—until it becomes a waking nightmare. Ever look at successful e-commerce businesses and wonder what's really happening behind the scenes? Think high sales always mean high profits? In this raw and honest episode, Omar pulls back the curtain on why he walked away from Zenhom Design – his e-commerce business with three warehouses and thousands of customers across 30 countries. Despite high sales and market presence, the reality behind the scenes tells a different story. Running an e-commerce business seems simple. We buy products all the time, so we think selling them won't be that hard. But there are a lot of headaches that people don't talk about – from razor-thin profit margins to logistical nightmares that can wipe out weeks of profit in a single mistake. Get ready for some shocking math: discover the brutal reality of what happens to every $100 sale in e-commerce (this number made Omar completely rethink his business model). Plus, learn why walking away from "success" led him to build something truly sustainable and freeing. Want to avoid the expensive lessons Omar learned the hard way? Hit play to discover why sometimes the smartest business decision is knowing when to walk away.
