However, there’s another way where you can pre-sell your inventory before placing one dollar in purchase orders from the factory. That’s why I invited Vance Lee to show you how.
Now living the digital nomad lifestyle, Vance Lee has come so far since he started his Amazon career in 2015. His shift from a brand & marketing career to becoming an ecommerce entrepreneur has forever changed his life after he mastered crowdfunding to launch products and grow brands.
