This week we are joined by serial entrepreneur Charles Tang of Instant eStore, which is an All-In-One Ecommerce Solution serving thousands of clients.
This was a great conversation with serial entrepreneur and early pioneer of ecommerce in Malaysia, Charles Tang. We discussed how he started the business and scaled in the early days. We touch on the evolution of ecommerce and the need to be omni-channel. We wrap up with some forward looking thoughts on the future on online commerce and where the metaverse fits it.
