In this exclusive workshop, Sasha and Hamen sit down with three community members — Cindy (a social services professional who designed her own handbag and built it into a growing brand), Nathan and Etienne (two former supermarket store managers who hit $10K within their first 30 days selling pet products). We break down their journeys, expose the real blockers holding each of them back, and go deep on the questions every scaling founder faces: when to expand, when to stay focused, and why complexity kills more businesses than competition ever will.

If you're new to this channel, my name is Sasha Karabut. I went from $137,000 in debt to building two 8-figure eCommerce brands. Through my company Ecom Capital, I've generated over $75 million in client revenue and helped 1000+ brands scale their businesses profitably.

In this exclusive workshop, Sasha and Hamen sit down with two community members — Craig (a former truck driver who launched a first-to-market cleaning product and hit $10K in his first month) and Susan (a corporate professional who built a pet product brand to $20K in her first month while still working full time).

We break down their journeys, expose the blockers holding them back, and reveal the exact growth levers they need to pull to hit $50K and $1M respectively.

In this exclusive workshop, I break down two wildly different founder journeys: Harsh (truck driver turned $26K/month beauty brand owner using 100% AI ads) and Joyce (corporate refugee turned $10K/month in 2 months with dropshipping). We expose their biggest blockers, reveal the exact CPO framework that 10X's conversion, and show why the path from $26K to $100K is about focus, not new products.

I paid $200,000 for 12 hours in a boardroom with Alex Hormozi. Here's why it's worth it. In this episode, I will break down the Alex Hormozi workshop experience with raw honesty. Not the polished highlights. Not the "here are the 10 lessons." This is the unfiltered conversation about what actually happened, why the investment made sense, and what specific insights are worth implementing immediately if you're building an ecommerce brand.
