Now in this episode, Tony and I break down our plan for 2026 and why it looks very different from this past year. Instead of chasing every new opportunity, we are focusing on the few decisions that actually move the needle and the trade-offs we're making. But before we begin, I want to let you know that tickets for Seller Summit 2026 are now on sale over at sellersummit.com and the price does go up on January 7th. And if you sell physical products online, 00:29 This is the event that you should be at. Unlike most events that are filled with high level fluff and inspirational stories, Seller Summit is all about tactical step-by-step strategies you can actually use in your business right away. Every speaker I invite is deep in the trenches, people who are running their own e-commerce stores, managing inventory, dealing with suppliers, and scaling real businesses. There's no corporate execs and no consultants. Also, I hate big events, so I intentionally keep it small and intimate. 00:54 We cap attendance at around 200 people so you can actually have real conversations and connect with everyone in the room. We've sold out every single year for the past nine years and I expect this year to be no different. It's happening April 21st to 23rd in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. And if you're doing over 250K or $1 million in revenue, we also offer a private mastermind for high level sellers. Right now, tickets are the cheapest they're ever gonna be and the price is going up on January 7th. So if you want in, go over to sellersummit.com and grab your ticket. 01:29 Welcome back to the My Wife Quitter Job podcast.
