I talk with Nate Ginsburg about putting systems in people in place to help you scale your business. This is a business of eCommerce, episode 105. Charles:                        00:17                Welcome to the business to be commerce. They show that helps eCommerce retailers start launch and grow [inaudible] eCommerce business. I'm your host, Charles Polaski. I'm here today with Nakeds Berg. Nate is a founder of seller Plex where he helps Amazon and other eCommerce retailers grow their business by scaling their supply chain. I asked him on the show today to talk about how you, you can scale your business by putting systems and people in place. So, Hey Nate, how are you doing today? Doing good. Doing good? Thanks. Yeah, doing good. So wanted to make sure. So sell a Plex. Is it just supply chain or do you guys do finance as well? You were just saying. Nate:                            00:52                Yeah, so we basically you know, our sweet spot is all the things that need to get done to keep a business running, but are, you know, not really the fun stuff. And so I like, I believe that as an entrepreneur it's all of our best opportunity. Me, you you know, all the e-commerce listeners to do what do what we're best at and double down on, you know, where where we can add the most value and then you know, delegate and you know, offload the other areas that are, you know, necessary to run the business well but you know, aren't going to actually grow the business. So that's where that's where we come in. So our services include a supply chain, finance admin so that, you know, you as the owner can yeah, double down on, on growing the business. Charles:                        01:49                Got it. So it goes very well to show topic then. I love the idea of putting systems in place. It's one of those things and e-commerce is a business where there's a lot of repetition where a lot of things like orders come in and the goal is, you know, 99% of orders follow the exact same path. They do the same thing. Hopefully 9%, nothing goes wrong. They just kind of ship. So there's a lot of this like work that just needs to be done every day, multiple times a day. So putting systems in place, e-commerce is like this, like soup compared to some other businesses like consulting where everything's almost a one off e-commerce. The goal is there, it's a factory, it's assembly line, they just kind of move through. Right? Nate:                            02:30                Yeah, absolutely. And so a little kind of background on me and the business. So I had my own eCommerce business, you know, started maybe five or six years ago and you know, I'm, I'm the kind of person that I'm not good at very many things and so needed to get help in all these areas that I, you know, were necessary and important, but you know, it wasn't particularly good at or didn't want to be good at, you know, for example, the customer service you know, supply chain, finance, admin and and yeah, like, you know, that allowed me to, you know, build this business that, you know, was you know, running very well. You know, sales were good,
