Entrepreneur Luke Bielby found his niche in e-commerce
Luke Bielby is an entrepreneur and CEO of an e-commerce site, Ecom Unlocked. He started his professional career as a sales representative for a furniture company. Realizing that he was not reaching his full potential, Luke started down the marketing path. As he gained momentum in the marketing industry, his career transformed into a full-blown e-commerce business, accumulating well over seven figures every month.
As Luke's marketing career sore, he built a team
Luke helped market clients' individual brands and companies. The job, that started off as supplementary to a sales job, took off. As he began making more money in marketing, he left his job with the furniture company. When the workload became unbearable, he started a team. During his first year working as a full-time marketing professional, Luke and his team earned more than $500,000.
How did Luke develop an interest in e-commerce?
In the marketing industry, Luke worked with people across a multitude of industries. There was one client, however, who worked in the e-commerce industry, that sparked Luke's interest. As he worked, connected, and learned from this client, Luke decided to turn his fascination into reality.
Luke started his own e-commerce clothing site
Growing up in the UK, he had seen people such as Lewis Morgan, Reece Wabara and Ben Francis make a killing in the e-commerce business. Inspired by the opportunities the e-commerce sector had to offer, Luke started his own e-commerce clothing site. He began by following the drop-shipping method for logistical purposes and soon transitioned his marketing business into an e-commerce business.
The profits Luke started out with and today's figures:
During his first three months in the e-commerce business, Luke accumulated more than $1 million, which he soon turned into more than seven figures every single month. With a staff of just over 50 people, Luke's gears shifted completely, and he was off to races.
Luke's biggest challenge was finding the right mentors
When Luke started on his own path, one of his biggest challenges was finding the right advice and mentors to listen to. However, seeing others do well in the industry fueled his fire. Visualizing any type of fear as a halt to progression, he looked at everything as an opportunity to learn and turned his 9-5 life into one with freedom and financial security.
Luke's upcoming personal and professional plans
Luke is working on starting a new brand while scaling his platform to 100 e-commerce sites. Furthermore, he is searching for ways to teach up-and-coming entrepreneurs how to kick-start their careers in e-commerce. To learn more about Luke Bielby and Ecom Unlocked, click here.
