A Little more about me.
Hey, my name is Erin and I am the founder and CEO of Ecom Era. You likely found me on TikTok and I wanted to say thank you for taking the time to look at my website.
My company owns and operates several websites, platforms and coaching programs in the ever-expanding world of E-commerce. In our first 12 months we generated over 50,000 orders all from organic social media followings.
My pursuit of freedom was the driving force to start my company. The freedom to treat customers and employees fairly and with a progressive and modern work from home mindset. Work life balance makes better companies, and better lives.
Freedom of time is an excellent side effect of working online, and creative passive income streams can contribute to your over all financial and time freedom. Which is what I want to help you achieve.
I have been everything from a Waitress to a Financial Advisor, but I attribute my success to hard work, determination, and figuring things out as I go.
I want to show you how to avoid the mistakes I've made.
I've always been intensely focused on teaching myself how I can turn my dreams into plans and have learned that sometimes all you need is the courage to start.
I hope that I can inspire other young people to redefine what entrepreneurship can look like.

The book that changed everything.
If you want to change your life read this book, twice. Reading this changed how I perceived value. It's a fun, to the point and factually helpful read that teaches that wealth comes in two forms. Money and Time: This book goes deep with actionable tools. If you want to get out of the rat race but don't really have a plan. This book will show you the way.
What we are reading now.
This book is going to break down all the reasons why your brain works the way it does. Why misery is unavoidable and that's ok and in-fact relaxing, heck maybe even positive. Get out of your own ego and get focused on the important, but maybe inconvenient truths.
