It seems he is already moving on by entering the self help/motivational speaker industry.

> As his business is increasingly run by his team, Grant has reduced his salary down to $60,000 a year and now dedicates much of his time to getting that message out. He consults and teaches e-commerce classes through the same blog he has been using to track his performance.

In other words, his business isn't working out very well and he has a lot of inventory risk. So he's "pivoting" to self-help.

It may have been working fine, and he simply chose to pivot careers rather than scale what he had.
