Yea, been super busy.
I've gotten my website almost ready for launch. I have ordered sampled and they all sold out within hours of putting them on Amazon so I know my products are going to sell so I'm not worrying about dropshipping, especially since my industry would net barely any profit...
Update 2/25/2014 (48th Day)
Got the items today, would've been yesterday but since the order was international it needed a signature and I wasn't home at the time. So I've decided I want to brand most of my products right away, basically putting my labels on them. It makes things much easier...
Update 2/21/2014 (44th Day)
Still here, my first order of product is on the way. I only ordered 20 items so far to see if there is an interest and to test my methods on Amazon as of right now. I haven't really focused much on the journey since I'm preparing for an audition for a movie but once...
So I've been trying to find the supplier of the biggest competitor in my niche and am unable to, I did find a great supplier that I sent in for some items to receive quotes so hopefully tomorrow they will reply back. I have a list of about 7 suppliers that I've been comparing and this one seems...
Update 2/9/2014 (32nd Day)
Finally beginning the process of ordering, I'm getting quotes from different suppliers and making sure the company is reliable and then I will see who has the best quotes and shipping. Hopefully by this time next week I'll have my first batch of products to upload on...
Update 2/1/2014 (24th Day)
Still here, gonna need more capital than I expected to start up so it'll be a bit longer until I get the product. For now I plan on selling a bunch of random products so I can build up some good reviews.
Update 1/25/2014 (17th Day)
Talked to the man some more, he is still interested. Just need to figure some things out for that. Filed my taxes today as well so I'll probably use all that money as well to buy product to build up a good selection.
Update 1/24/2014 (16th Day)
Alright so the last few days I've been busy working getting some money to buy inventory. But I found a guy who might be willing to invest or give me a loan, maybe even form a partnership with me but IDK as of yet. All my intentions are still the same, I should have...
I think I have a little over 200 in my wallet I got in about a week after it came out and people were handing it out to get it popular, I wouldn't invest anything into it though. I'd rather play penny stocks.
Update 1/20/2014 (12th Day)
Find a supplier that will mix and match product for me to meet their minimum requirements, shipping takes 2-6 days estimated so that's nice as well. Their prices seem to be really low but I will keep searching to see if I can find anything better. I didn't get the...
Update 1/18/2014 (10th Day)
I've decided to focus on one of the niches. There is a bigger profit margin in it for me and I found a great supplier with a minimum order of 5. I plan to start going wholesale so to say. The money I'm getting from this gig will go towards product. I plan to buy...
Update 1/17/2014 (9th Day)
I was busy all day so I didn't have much time to do anything but I did get in contact with supplier and am trying to get a product list as well as everything I need to easily upload in bulk to Amazon and Ebay via Excel file.
Update 1/15/2014 (7th Day)
So the last to days I haven't done anything with this project. I've been attending meetings and interviews. Looks like I'll be gone for a bit next week as well. Just wanted to stop in and say I'm still working on this.
I plan to build up a customer base since the niche is one where people will come back to a lot and then create some coupons with my websites name on them and have people use the website for like 5% off or something. I will probably use social media and maybe Google Adwords as well.
Update 1/13/2014 (5th Day)
Alright, I wasn't able to do anything yesterday since I wasn't home most of the day but today I did some things. I have focused on one niche for now so I can keep focused on the plan better. I found a new supplier for the niche and after getting prices and looking...
