I joined BHW awhile ago and started with a few journeys foolishly thinking I would be able to bank in a few weeks and live the life I dreamed. I was wrong. I spent a year trying 1000 different methods to make internet money, and probably made around $5k - $10k total since joining BHW with my different ventures. At some point I realized that blackhat was short term income, and I wanted to build a long term internet income. One year ago this month I started an Instagram page in a niche I'm passionate about, and I started it with the idea that I wanted to make it into a clothing line.
I was able to build the page to 120k followers and another page with 103k followers in the same niche so I decided to start my clothing line. I've started small by launching my store with one design and five color options. My plan is to save money I make from sales and reinvest it back into the clothing line expanding my mens lineup and starting my woman's clothing line as well.
I get the shirts in a week but started a pre-sale four days ago placing 2 - 3 ads on my Instagram pages each day since starting.
Day 1: 1 Sale, 2 shirts, revenue $48
Day 2: 1 Sale, 2 shirts, revenue $58
Day 3: 1 Sale, 1 shirts, revenue $28
Today: 2 Sales, 2 shirts, revenue $56
Total Revenue: 190
Shirt Costs: 41.65
Shipping Costs: 56 (one international order)
Shopify Fees: $6
Profit: $86.35
My goal is to sale on average 10 shirts per day because at that point I should be making a nice side income or even be able to start looking into making this a full time gig.
I'm planning to do some photoshoots in the next few weeks to make some nice looking custom ads on my page. I also plan to create an apparel page for my brand and start giving it shoutouts from my my two big pages to help it grow.
I'll do my best to keep this journey up-to-date.
