$15M Amazon Side Business
Share
A brief mention of Shaan building a successful e-commerce business while working at Amazon after selling his previous company.
"During my time at Amazon, I started this e-commerce thing that we don't talk about much on purpose. The business does about $15 million a year, profitable, bootstrapped in 2 years.
Looking back, I would've advised myself not to do this path. I was already at Amazon after selling my previous company, and had some clout. But during my second year at Amazon I was way more chill and basically did very little work there while building this."
Note: The story is brief as Shaan mentions they intentionally don't discuss this business much on the podcast.
