EP 47: From an 8-Figure Amazon Private Label Seller to a SaaS Entrepreneur w/ Chad Rubin [Crucial Vacuums & Skubana]

7 years ago, right in the heat of the 2008 recession, Chad Rubin took over his parents' failing vacuum brick and mortar business and converted it to an Ecommerce and Amazon Private Label business called Crucial Vacuum selling own-branded vacuum spare and accessories such as: vacuum bags, vacuum rollers, vacuum hoses, vacuum filter and vacuum belts.    Over time, he has turned Crucial Vacuum into a leading brand in the Vacuum parts and accessories space largely through his Amazon stores in the US, Canada, UK and Germany.Where they currently rank number 1 in the vacuum accessory space and are amongst the top 300 sellers on Amazon.com (they ranked #298) and top 1000 Amazon Worldwide sellers (they ranked #540).    Chad's entrepreneurial eyes have more recently spotted the absence of a cost efficient all-in-one backend SaaS solution for multi-channel sellers. Realising this gap, he went on to co-found Skubana, a cloud-based multi-channel solution that focuses on backend processes in order fulfillment such as: printing shipping labels, stock and inventory management, warehouse replenishments connected to front end order management systems and SKU profitability analytics.   Chad and I had a conversation lasting well over an hour about scaling an Amazon business and the need for a solution like Skubana when scaling an ecommerce business.      Message from Our Sponsors: This episode is brought to you by Remarkety.
