Bonus 7: Ultimate Bundle’s Ryan Langford explains how Affiliate marketing is key in his alternative eCommerce business
Today’s special guest… is Ryan Langford CEO of Ultimate Bundles. It’s a very different type of eCommerce business to those we normally feature, rather than focus on selling products day in day out, Ryan and his team put all their effort into sales events, during each of which only one single product is on sale – a specific bundle of resources. In the last 3 years they’ve run 20 of them and sold over 160,000 bundles.
