In this VDCast, Tiago Palermo shares how the pandemic destroyed the model that sustained his life. With physical stores in shopping malls, accumulating rent, suppliers demanding payment, and a debt of almost R$1 million, he needed to find a new path. It was in this scenario that Shopee and marketplaces emerged as a gateway to sell products he already had in stock and reverse a seemingly hopeless situation. Throughout the conversation, you'll understand how he left the bank, quit his traditional job after 13 years, and bet on the digital world. Tiago shows his growth curve, the mistakes he made at the beginning, the adjustments that accelerated the business, and how mentorship shortened the path to faster revenue generation and better operational structuring. The episode reveals how a marketplace can be a powerful way to sell without depending on a physical store, without needing to expose yourself, and with a low barrier to entry. You'll also learn why Shopee has become a giant sales avenue, how to identify products in demand, think about margins, operations, inventory, and growth, and why this model works for those starting out or who already have a physical business and want to create a digital arm. Tiago also shows how he transformed his own experience into a method and why he keeps the operation running to stay updated. The episode delves into Tiago's shift to mentoring. He recounts how he started by helping people for free, then charged incorrectly, entered a tiring individual model, almost became ill from the workload, and needed to restructure everything into a smarter, scalable, and sustainable format. From there, he created a strong community, a consultancy for Shopee operations, and new solutions for the pain points of his own students.
