Vova Tess has seen success at a young age. He was born and raised in NYC in a middle class family. He was always ambitious and wanted to experiment and try new things. In high school Vova started to notice that he was always satisfied and comfortable with where he was because he had been comparing himself to the people around him. He said that when you’re in high school everyone is basically the same: average. So the only people he was around and compared himself to were average people. In result, he was going to be average as well. When he started to surround himself with like-minded people through mentorship, books, courses, podcasts, and talking to people that are actually successful in e-commerce that’s when his success started.
By the age of 17 Vova Tess had already built his first successful Shopify store to $230,000.00 in sales in under 60 days.

Vova Tess explains that everyone who decides to become an entrepreneur in the Ecommerce space should expect a few crucial pieces of advice. These pieces of advice include expecting to fail, investing in mentorship, and understanding the stigmas of success in Ecommerce.
