Millionaire University Building a Shopify Agency That Delivers Massive Growth for E-commerce Brands | Kurt Elster
#659 What if the simplest, scrappiest tactics could unlock massive success online? In this episode, host Kirsten Tyrrel chats with Kurt Elster, founder of Ethercycle and host of The Unofficial Shopify Podcast, about how he built a thriving agency helping e-commerce brands scale on Shopify.
