In this episode, host John Cavendish sits down with Arjun Mahadevan, CEO & Founder of DOOLA, to break down what ecommerce sellers need to build a legitimate, scalable US business—whether you're selling on Amazon, Shopify, or expanding into multiple marketplaces.
If you’ve ever wondered:
• Do I need a US LLC as a non-US seller?
• How do I open a US business bank account remotely?
• Will forming an LLC increase trust, reduce failed payments, or improve Amazon payout reliability?
• How do taxes work if I’m an international ecommerce founder?
This episode covers all of it with clear, practical explanations.
Arjun dives deep into:
• Why an LLC is more than compliance—it's infrastructure for serious sellers
• How a better payment setup reduces decline rates and increases revenue
• The shift from freelancer to business owner (and why it matters)
• How DOOLA helps global sellers with formation, compliance, bookkeeping, and taxes
• Why the $0–$100K range is where most real ecommerce profits happen
• The fastest way to get revenue-ready and start selling in the US
• Essential tax and IRS requirements non-US founders must not ignore
• Common bookkeeping mistakes that quietly hurt ecommerce businesses
If you're an Amazon seller, ecommerce operator, Shopify brand owner, or aspiring global entrepreneur, this conversation will give you the clarity and structure you need to scale with confidence.
