Devin: What do you see as your superpower?Peter: It's grit—grit and values. Grit comes from values. Grit comes from having an aim, a mission.Peter Rostovsky's fintech startup, Raiseway, grew out of his personal experience helping a friend raise money for his startup. Exploring the possibility of investment crowdfunding, he was flummoxed by the sheer number of portals to choose from. At the time, there were over 40, a count that has now topped 70.“That kind of started this very long exploration into the execution problem with investment crowdfunding for founders of startups and small businesses,” he says, having learned that crowdfunding can be difficult.Last year, Peter asked me to serve as an advisor to Raiseway, and I was honored to accept. He is an advisor to The Super Crowd, Inc., a public benefit corporation.Raiseway is potentially game-changing because the vast majority of businesses in the country that can benefit from crowdfunding are small and can't afford expensive consultants but can afford to use an app that will guide them through and, using AI, help them execute their crowdfunding campaigns.Peter has two critical tips for folks looking to crowdfund:* Assess your community. Before you launch, assess your community to determine how large, accessible and warm it is. * Don't bet on “if you build it, they will come.” To get people to invest, you need to drive people to the investment opportunity thoughtfully and strategically. They won't find it on their own.In building Raiseway, Peter leverages his superpower: grit.AI Podcast Summary* Devin Thorpe interviews Peter Rostovsky, the founder and CEO of Raiseway, a crowdfunding app for entrepreneurs.* Raiseway is designed to streamline the crowdfunding process and help entrepreneurs accelerate their fundraising journey.* The alpha version of Raiseway is currently available for free use.* Peter's work with Raiseway could completely alter the investment crowdfunding landscape.* Raiseway aims to make crowdfunding more accessible and affordable for small businesses and startups.* Peter's key tip for entrepreneurs considering crowdfunding is to thoroughly prepare and evaluate their community and connections before starting.* Peter's superpower is his grit and determination, which he developed through his experiences as an immigrant and in running his own business.* Peter believes that being okay with failure and having a few wins under your belt can help develop grit.* Raiseway can be accessed through the app; contact Peter directly.How to Develop Grit As a SuperpowerPeter developed grit as he grew up. Born in St. Peterburg, his family moved first to Moscow and later to Bryansk, a city he describes as a “hellhole.” Later, still a teenager, he immigrated to the United States, facing a fresh set of cultural challenges.The difficulties adapting to new situations, cultures and individuals helped him develop the grit he deploys to build his business.Peter faced a challenge recently. After publicly announcing the launch of the alpha version of the software would happen on April 15, the startup missed the deadline. He admits feeling ashamed due to missing the self-imposed but now public due date.After worrying that he couldn't possibly recover, he took responsibility for getting the process back on track and, within weeks, got the product launched. It is now available as a free download for a limited time for those interested in help with their crowdfunding campaigns, willing to provide feedback.Peter offers some advice for developing grit. “I am a former F-student through and through,” he says. He acknowledges that the learned helplessness phenomenon applied to him. The key to overcoming it is to “get a couple wins under your belt.” “You can point to them in your life and say, ‘Well, no, I'm not a failure. I did this, this and that.' It's not only professional, it's personal as well,” he says.By following Peter's example and advice, you can make grit a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Guest-Provided ProfilePeter Rostovsky (he/him):Founder & CEO, RaisewayAbout Raiseway: Raising money with crowdfunding is prohibitively hard for businesses that need it the most - small businesses and startups.

About Evan Smith Evan Smith is CEO and co-founder of Altana. He founded Altana in 2018, along with co-founders CTO Peter Swartz and COO Raphael Tehranian, after identifying a need for access to a trusted source of real time supply chain information. The three founded Altana while working at Panijiva, a trade data science company. Evan led enterprise solutions and strategic partnerships for Panjiva and also previously served as the CEO of IMBU Technologies, a company providing textile supply chain automation software. Evan graduated from Yale University with a bachelor's degree in Economics. About Altana Altana Technologies transforms the world's public and non-public data into an intelligent, shared model of the global supply chain. Enterprises, governments, and logistics providers connect to Altana's Trusted Network Platform to illuminate, collaborate, and build trust across their global business networks. Through Altana, organizations across the public and private sectors are building a more resilient, secure, inclusive, and sustainable globalization. Key Takeaways: The Altana Story Evan Smith is the CEO and Co-founder of Altana, a platform for building trusted networks on a shared source of truth for the global supply chain. In the podcast interview, Evan and Joe discussed Evan's career, the founding of Altana, and why private and public sector organizations need a technology platform that will enable them to build a more resilient, secure, and sustainable globalization. Altana's visions for Globalization 2.0: a globalization defined by Trusted Networks, which span and connect nation states, businesses, and civil society in resilient, secure, sustainable, and inclusive global business networks. The Altana Atlas is powered by a dynamic AI model of the supply chain, which learns from billions of data points describing businesses, facilities, supply chain flows, and ownership relationships worldwide. The Altana Atlas learns from both public and non-public data that cannot be directly pooled. This creates unprecedented visibility across the supply chain that was previously impossible because of data sovereignty, privacy, and intellectual property protections. The Altana Atlas integrates all internal data, external data, and analytics to create a dynamic view of a company's multi-tier value chains and extended business network — enabling companies to make informed decisions on how the materials actually move from facility to facility across the supply chain network.

Welcome To Episode #123 of the Amazon FBA Private Label Show Podcast! In this episode I share my tips for finding and dealing with great suppliers for my e-commerce business. Listen to this Amazon FBA Podcast! [powerpress] Tips For Finding and Dealing with Great Suppliers - Amazon FBA EP123 Once you find a great product that you want to start selling on Amazon FBA you need to find an equally great supplier that can make it for you. Using a bad supplier can result in poor product quality, missed deadlines, poor communication and ultimately poor product sales. The search for finding a great supplier can be a frustrating and time consuming process. Randomly searching sites like Alibaba, Global Sources and Thomas Net aren't always effective as there are often lots of bad suppliers to weed through. It is essential that you find great suppliers for your e-commerce or Amazon FBA business to succeed. Here are my tips to finding a great supplier:  If you are using Alibaba, Global Sources, Thomas Net etc... Look to see how long the supplier has been in business. Try to avoid suppliers without a long track record of business. How much business is a supplier currently getting? How well are their websites put together and organized? If you are using Alibaba check to see if they are a Gold Supplier, have an Onsite Check completed, accept Trade Assurance Check the company profile pages to further inspect the business A quicker and more efficient way of finding a supplier is to search the import records of top sellers. Make a list of the top players in your niche and search to find their company and brand names. Use sites like Panjiva.com or similar to search import records If you have the Jungle Scout Web App then you now have this functionality built in. Use it to save tons of time. If sellers are consistently using certain suppliers for a lot of order then that is a good sign. WATCH THIS VIDEO  Once you have a list of 3 - 5 potential suppliers to work with you need to start reaching out to them. You need to test them and see how well they respond to your inquiry. This is all about narrowing down to find the right supplier that is gonna meet your needs and be easy to work with. I usually have a set list of questions that I send to each supplier. Here are some of the basic questions I like to ask. It's also important that you number the questions as it makes it easy for the supplier to read and respond to you. Sample Questions How much are samples? Is the sample fee refundable with an order? What are the different packaging options you offer? Can I customize the product and private label the product? How long does it take for a typical order to be completed? What are the payment options you accept? Once you send off these questions you just now wait to see how they respond. If you don't get a response then cross them off your list. You are simply gauging their answers and communication here. As I progress with the communication I may start to talk to them about price and MOQ information. How much per unit for 500, 1000, 2000, 5000? Tell them you want to place a "starter order" of a relatively small quantity to test their product and services. If everything goes smooth then you will place larger orders. Always frame everything as Win-Win for both parties. If you are going to start negotiating lower prices then explain your reasoning and how it would benefit them long term. You can check sites like 1688.com for potential pricing comparison. It's worth noting that being to aggressive on pricing can backfire on you if you don't have any rapport built up. Here are some important points to always keep in mind: Ask them if they have a full product catalog/PDF they can send you. Many times the supplier won't have a fully updated website as they are adding new products all the time. Kindness goes a long way so be kind! Always have clear communication and avoid using slang Focus and tell the supplier that you want to build a long term business partnership that is mutually beneficial. Build rapport with your supplier representative Ask them personal stuff about themselves Praise and compliment them often Share personal stuff about yourself with them Share any fun pictures or videos when necessary FINAL NOTE: It's often the goal of many sellers to want to find the supplier with the lowest prices. From my experience that isn't always the best idea as many suppliers will cut corners on materials and packaging to compensate. I am usually willing to spend a little more money per unit if I know the supplier can deliver exactly what I am asking for in a timely manner. I will also be willing to spend more to work with certain suppliers if I know dealing with them is going to be easy. So price is important but don't sacrifice quality because if you do that could lead to poor product reviews and a poor customer experience.   Not a member of the Facebook Mastermind group yet?

The U.S. trade deficit is continuing to decline – but don't blame imports for the widening gap. In fact, in trade figures published by the U.S. Census Bureau for the month of June 2016, imports were actually down by 2.9 percent from a year earlier. The problem is that exports dropped by an even greater margin of 5.2 percent. Blame a strong dollar and weak commodity sales, among other factors. On this episode, we delve into the trends behind the numbers with Chris Rogers, research analyst with Panjiva. He identifies the weakest areas of U.S. trade, based on such factors as currency exchange, interest rates, competition from Chinese manufacturers and the impact of the U.K.'s decision to withdraw from the European Union.
