We’re Amanda Gaid and Adeel Qayum, two dropshipping and marketing enthusiasts who have been immersed in these topics for years. We’re all about sharing what we’ve learned so that we can help aspiring entrepreneurs get rid of the “aspiring” part and make their dreams a reality.
When making this book, we each wrote our own chapters. You’ll see “Amanda here,” or “Adeel here,” at the beginning of every chapter so you can keep track of who’s talking to you
