Scale your ecommerce brand with expert mentorship
Get the strategies, systems, and support you need to grow—without the guesswork.
‘On that first day, The 5TH did $100,000 in sales. Exactly one year later, the company increased their revenue tenfold, bringing in a total of $1 million in sales (yes, in one day).'
The mentor I wish I had
I'm Alex, the founder of The 5TH, which did $1 million in sales in a single day, as well as shareholder and founder of a range of other start-ups. Building an ecommerce business is a rollercoaster. The wins feel incredible, but the setbacks can be brutal. When I started, I had to figure everything out on my own—from scaling to $1M+ in a day to facing the unexpected challenges that come with fast growth.
I often wished I had a mentor who truly understood ecommerce—someone who could guide me through the highs and lows, the wins and losses, and help me make better decisions faster.
That’s why I built this mentorship program. Not just to teach what works, but to provide real, practical guidance from someone who’s been through it all. Whether you're struggling with ads, conversion rates, scaling, or just feeling lost, I’ve been there—and I know how to help.
If you want proven strategies and a mentor who’s walked the path before, let’s chat.

"Before working with Alex and Grow Online, we hadn’t made a single online sale. He built us a Shopify website that not only looks professional and credible, but also delivers real results—we now generate millions of dollars in online sales each year.
What stands out about Alex is that it’s not just about the website or ads. He’s worked closely with us on creative direction and advertising strategy, helping us uncover multiple measurable lead sources that actually convert. The approach he brings is about building a scalable, sustainable solution, and that’s been a game-changer for our business.
I’d highly recommend Alex to any business that wants to take online growth seriously. He’s not just a web designer or ad manager—he’s a true partner in strategy and scaling, and the results speak for themselves."
"I was introduced and recommended Alex by a friend who was using Grow Online for their own business. Almost immediately, it was clear Alex knows the digital branding, marketing and retailing space at a high level.
His use of analytics was of the most interest — not interested in fluff or gimmicks or inconsequential metrics. Sophisticated branding, clear-cut, well thought out and very deliberate ROI-focused campaigns to drive brand awareness and direct sales. Weekly reporting on all aspects that give perfect insight. Quick to pivot and refine based on successes. Has taken our goals and steered them in ways we hadn’t thought of — exactly what we’d hoped for in outsourcing an expert in this field.
A sophistication in this space that we haven't seen in several previous agencies we've engaged with. Our ROI on using Grow Online is significant — very lucky to have them within our wine business."
