Financial Commandment #1: Your Money, Your Responsibility
In this post you’ll learn: He almost didn’t review his tax return that year....
Working in the modern eCommerce climate has really thrown some of the traditional employment methods out of the window. Danny Robertson of New Industries Group knows all about working across borders. Danny has built up a number of businesses over the years, managing multiple eCommerce websites at a time with a team of employees that all worked remotely.
This week, we’re going to be talking about exactly what it takes to hire and manage a remote team, and how they integrate with eCommerce sites, particularly in those that are still using drop shipping. I’ve invited Danny on to the podcast to share his thoughts on the eCommerce employment landscape.
Here’s What You’ll Learn
- How Danny got into outsourcing work for his eCommerce stores.
- What tasks Danny is comfortable outsourcing and which ones he is not.
- Danny’s views on the future of drop shipping and eCommerce.
- How standard operating procedures are critical for managing remote employees.
- What New Industries Group is doing to help other eCommerce businesses get off the ground.

Founder and Chief Instigator, eComFuel
Andrew quit an early finance job to sell CB radios online — an admittedly unorthodox career path. It set him on a course to found and sell multiple businesses, host a decade-running podcast, lecture at Harvard Business School and create eComFuel, the leading community for 7- and 8-figure online business owners. Andrew is fascinated with branding, AI, building community, investing and growing meaningful businesses that don't require sacrificing what truly matters.
