Book Summary: Ecommerce Evolved by Tanner Larsson – Introduction
I’ve just finished reading a simply fantastic book on ecommerce, called Ecommerce Evolved by Tanner Larsson, available on Amazon:
It’s so jammed-pack with practical tips and tricks on how to Build, Grow & Scale a Successful Ecommerce Business, I thought it would be helpful to share some of the highlights of the book here.
The book consists of 3 parts:
PART I: Evolved Strategy
PART II: Evolved Intelligence
PART III: Evolved Marketing
In this post I’ll summarize the introduction of the book, and will make 4 additional posts to summarize the first 4 chapters that make up PART I. For PART II and PART III, please read the book. (Originally, I had plans to summarize the entire book, but by the time I was finishing summarizing Part I, I realized I had reached the 10% fair-use threshold…sorry!)
Here are the links to summaries of the 1st 4 chapters:
Chapter 1: Funnel-Based Ecommerce
Chapter 2: Recurring Income Core
Chapter 3: Think Before You Sell
Chapter 4: Conversion Tricks, Sales Boosts, and Profit Maximizers
Disclaimer: These are my personal notes so I’ve paraphrased quite heavily in some places. If you like what you read, please buy the book to get the complete information in its original glory.
Let’s start!
