#226 - Talking about Global Commerce with Alex Yancher, Co-Founder & CEO of Passport
Description
I spoke with Alex about:
- His early years in investment banking, Facebook and running Operations in companies such as Lynks and Pantry.
- The founding story of Passport and how they initially helped brands with international shipping
- How they got their first customers and how their customers' success helped them get more known in the industry
- Their 2nd product offering, Passport Global, which provides an end-to-end internationalization solution that combines their shipping services plus added storefront localization, pricing strategies, and accurate duty & tax calculation tools.
- Their key challenges along these past 8 years and how COVID wasn't so great for them even though it was great for eCom in general and why
- How they use AI today to be a lot more efficient than before.
Alex is a logistics veteran, and I learned a ton :)
