About this listen

In this unmissable episode, we sit down with Jason Wong, the serial entrepreneur who built a multi-million dollar e-commerce empire from the ground up, starting as a teenager. Jason shares the raw truth about his journey, from his immigrant hustle working at Chinese takeout restaurants to leveraging the internet as his escape and pathway to success.

Discover the counter-intuitive decisions that fueled his rapid growth, including the conscious choice to move from the comfortable suburbs of Orange County to New York City just to force continuous progress. Jason reveals the viral marketing strategy he mastered by growing his Tumblr blog to millions of followers and how that foundation led to his boldest move: the $250,000 Zero Inventory Launch, where he sold a quarter-million dollars worth of product before a single unit was even manufactured.

We dive deep into the crucial lessons learned from facing "channel risk," his ethical approach to sourcing in the beauty industry, and his latest venture, Packaging Duck, where he's disrupting the manufacturing sector. Whether you're a seasoned founder, a marketer, or simply seeking motivation, this episode is packed with hard-won wisdom, actionable strategies, and stories of intentional discomfort that define true entrepreneurship.
