Amazon Seller Podcast | The Amazon scaling mistake that quietly destroys margins (Ep 199 )
Joining us is Andy Hooper, CEO of Expandly and creator of the STEMS® philosophy, who has spent years helping e-commerce brands and service businesses navigate the tricky transition from local players to global operators. In this episode, we unpack why scaling too fast or moving into new territories without solid operational guardrails can actively destroy your margins. We’ll explore the hidden bottlenecks that emerge as order volumes climb, why scaling internationally introduces unique financial risks if not sequenced correctly, and how to build a business model designed for true, sustainable profitability. Host: Prabhat Shah Guest: Andy Hooper ( Expandly )
