I'm a couple of weeks out from closing on my first acquisition, a small, niche apparel E-comm that I'll be operating part time while keeping my W2. I'd love to connect with other entrepreneurs in this space or in this situation (maintaining a W2 post-acquisition), especially as I'm working through my transition plan and beyond. Reach out if you're interested in having a conversation!

@redacted‌ I bought two eComm brands last fall and I'm working on rolling them up. Happy to meet another eComm owner! Hit me up some time and I hope the closing goes well! Word of advice: the transition process post-close is brutal. 2FA is my nemesis. The amount of times Meta asked me if I was a human - lol. Just know it gets better on the other side!

Happy to chat! I've got a lot of experience in Ecomm both as part time and W-2.
