How accurate were our eCommerce predictions of 2025 and which ones completely missed the mark? In this episode, I sit down with longtime friend of the show and industry heavyweight Bill D'Alessandro. Bill returns to help dissect the biggest themes that shaped 2025 — from tariffs and consumer pockets to platform shifts and advertising pressure.

You'll learn how global sourcing shifts reshaped margins, why affluent consumers and specific product categories powered through the chaos, and what rising ad auction competitiveness means for every eCommerce business. We also dive into emerging trends like GEO ("SEO for AI"), the real cracks showing in Google's dominance, shifting offshoring models, and Amazon's evolving two-tier ecosystem.
