Turning point
At 14, I found one. I noticed a price gap between TinyDeal and eBay, listed a product, and made $40 profit within hours. I was also selling e-cigarettes at school. That hustle taught me something early: you don’t need permission to start – you just need to move.
Later, while managing multiple eBay stores, I hit a pain point. Order fulfillment and price tracking were eating up my time. So I built a tool to automate it – not to sell, just to make my life easier.
That tool became AutoDS.
In 2016, AutoDS launched – and we bootstrapped it all the way up. No funding. No shortcuts.
Over time, we grew into the #1 all-in-one dropshipping platform. We helped over 1,000,000 entrepreneurs launch and grow their online businesses. Our platform generated over $150,000,000 in annual GMV, and we were rated the #1 Shopify Dropshipping App, top-ranked on Trustpilot, and handpicked by Wix. We published over 1,000 YouTube videos and built a global audience of 200,000+ subscribers.
We also acquired some of the biggest players in our space: Salefreaks, DSMTool, and Viral Vault
