ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Tariffs are squeezing your margins before you even ship a unit. Whether you're doing $8K/month in home goods or $800K/month in electronics, the sourcing landscape is shifting. Neil Twa dives into what a 30% cost increase from China means for your unit economics. Two sellers, same tariff pressure, but different strategies: a $40K/month home textiles brand and a larger electronics operator. Neil breaks down three actionable moves every seller can execute, no matter your scale. The sourcing map is evolving faster than most sellers are moving. Close that gap before 2026 hits. This is The High Voltage Business Builders Podcast.

Your live Amazon coupon is quietly training buyers to wait for deep discounts. This kills full-price conversion and erodes margins over time. I ran a ten percent coupon on a hero SKU in home goods for four straight months. Units moved, but full-price conversion collapsed. The moment I removed it, t…
Amazon sent you a storage preview. It looks like an estimate, but it is the exact math for your January bill. Most sellers ignore it, and that mistake costs thousands when peak fees hit. This is not a news recap. It is a warning about dead inventory eating your margins.
