Some of my biggest lessons have come from failing. For example, I started around 8-10 different ecom brands that all blew up and failed. Does this make me a failure though? I used to think so, but I never stopped grinding and getting better. I view failure very differently these days. I view those "failed" ecom business as my education cost now, the cost of not knowing wtf I was doing, but doing it anyway and learning as I progressed. That's the key, if you are building skillsets that will amplify you for the future, it isn't failing. I've learned marketing, management, sales, landing page design, building shopify stores all through these "failures". Failing does make you a failure, that only happens when you give up. So, keep moving forward, understand the biz risks and mitigate them as you progress and build your skillsets. These skills have become very valuable now. Just wanted to share this quick thought, the grind never stops!

My name is Dom Corso. I am from Columbus, OH and have a wife and 15 month old daughter. I work full time as a Wealth Management Specialist and manage our team's retirement/401k business. I've been in the Finance industry for a decade now, and have been in Ecom for 4 years. I've started around 8-10 online brands (all dropshipping lol) and they all have failed. My most recent online biz is taking all those lessons I've learned from creating these businesses, and offering them as a service to small business owners. I have years of experience in sales, marketing, management, etc. My goal is $20K/month revenue by summer 2025, majority of this rev being recurring. Right now I am bringing in $5-10K monthly but this is very transactional. I will be sharing my journey here as I go from zero to hero, let’s grind 🤝❤️

Something that has helped me a lot this year is putting my phone far away from me before bed. This year I’ve been reading before bed, but there is another hack here…. Since my phone is far away, when the alarm goes off I have to physically get out of bed to shut it off. You can add messages into your alarm. My message to myself is “the work is the goal” (something I heard from Hormozi) This reminds me to keep on the grind and not get back into bed lol Its been a game changer 🤝❤️

A favorite saying I heard years ago has helped me a lot when it comes to sales or leadership “you have two ears and one mouth for a reason, listen twice as much” This is especially useful when you start getting to know a potential client or even hiring a new team member 🤝❤️
