Voices of eCommerce
Do you want understand how eCommerce works? I’m professor John Drake of East Carolina University. My podcast “Voices of eCommerce” wants to build that understanding in the area I love most - eCommerce. In this podcast, I interview the people behind the scenes of eCommerce - the people that design, build, market, and run online, mobile, and social initiatives. These interviews ask about their careers, job roles, and the current state of eCommerce in business today.
