This week on the Hammersley Brothers Ecommerce Podcast, we talk about the mindset traps that stop ecommerce founders from scaling and what actually separates the brands that break through from the ones that stay stuck.

Inspired by a conversation with one of our Level 1 members, we unpack what it really feels like when you're at the beginning of your ecommerce journey, looking up at bigger brands and wondering if you can actually build something massive yourself.
