In this episode of #Alphapreneurs, host 𝗥𝗮𝘆𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝗔𝗹𝗲𝗲𝗺 chats with 𝗖𝗵𝗿𝗶𝘀 𝗘𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗼𝘁t, founder of Emirates Business Setup and a true cross-border entrepreneur. From selling DVDs at 16 to building multi-country businesses in Germany, the UAE, and the U.S., Chris shares how he built scalable systems that let him run companies without being tied to a single location.
They talk about the leap from employee to entrepreneur, what most people get wrong about e-commerce, and how fitness, family, and good routines help him stay grounded. Chris also opens up about hitting €10M during COVID and why mentorship was key to getting there.
