Born in Peru, David began his journey in the entrepreneurial space at a very young age. He notes that coming from a background that was not financially stable, his dream was to attain financial independence early on and help other young business owners, motivating him to take the huge step.

To fulfill his dream, David took a huge risk when he was just 11 years old, moving from his home country of Peru to the USA. He got his first job when he was 15, moving into working in different fields, and it was then that David came to learn about e-commerce.

Online shopping has become increasingly popular over the years, with many businesses moving their operations to the digital space. “Most people are also opting to buy various products online as it is much easier, which has opened the e-commerce field to more opportunities,” explains David.

To provide for his family back home, David started his first Amazon FBA business offering various products. It didn’t take long before David had built a successful venture as the field was relatively new, and there wasn’t much competition at the time. He explains that the experience pushed him to step out of his comfort zone and try other products.

Unfortunately, it didn’t go as he expected, and he ended up making losses. David’s first attempt at online sales was not a success, and he was back to zero. However, David didn’t let this dictate his future. David was not ready to give up on his passion, and by leveraging the lessons he’d learned, he set up another store.

Today David is a well-known e-commerce expert and successful entrepreneur popularly known as E Com Dave. He has built his stores to 6+ figures and was awarded the 2 Comma Club award by ClickFunnels one year after starting his Amazon FBA business.

David has also recently launched an Amazon coaching program where he helps others in the industry to become successful Amazon sellers. He says that his goal is to change the e-commerce marketplace by supporting people to easily find their way. David uses his coaching program to help others in the field, sharing what he has learned and tips for building thriving Amazon stores.

By sharing his incredible success story, David also encourages entrepreneurs not to give up on their goals. “While it is challenging to build a thriving venture, it is certainly not impossible,” notes David. He explains that it just depends on your patience, hard work, and ability to remain focused even when faced with obstacles.
