August 2026 Update It's August 1st, so I think it's time for another update. The screenshot above shows my results from June and July. I honestly didn't expect things to turn out like this, especially after everything that happened. After my last update, I decided to take the biggest risk so...

June 2026 Update My last update was back in January and since then I haven't really posted much. To be honest, there wasn't much to post because most of my time was spent testing products, looking at numbers, making mistakes, and trying to find something that actually worked. A big part of the...

Interesting journey so far, I'll be following!

If hitting the bottom where you started doesn’t motivate you to begin again from zero, remember this: when you’re at zero, you have nothing left to lose.

Yes, I believe there’s something powerful in continuing what runs in your bloodline. It doesn’t feel like you’re starting from scratch. It’s more like picking up a legacy and adding your own chapter to it.

Appreciate it bro, means a lot. It’s not easy, but we’ve got to build it ourselves if we want it to last. Let’s keep pushing.

Update – December 2025 (End of the Year) Honestly, I didn’t want to end 2025 like this – but I have to keep it real. It’s been exactly one year since I started this journey, and even though there were some great moments, right now I’m not where I wanted to be. I’ve fallen back to somewhere...

Thank you for being here from the very beginning CickoKumplug.

Appreciate it! Still just getting started. Next step is foreign markets – let’s see how it goes.

November 2025 – One Year Since I Started This Journey It’s been exactly one year since I first shared my journey here on the forum. I had no idea where it would take me – but I’m still here, still building. Over this past year, I’ve processed and delivered more than 2,000 orders. For some, that...

Update – August 2025 At the moment, things are still moving in the right direction with my e-commerce stores. I can now confidently call them stores – I currently run three online stores in my country, and I’m preparing to expand into two neighboring countries starting this October, once I’m...

My biggest order so far! Today I picked up the biggest order I’ve ever made — around 600 pieces. It honestly feels unreal, because I still remember how it all started. My very first order was from AliExpress, just 8 products… and out of those 8, I ended up asking for a refund on 4 of them...

Thank you

I spent the first half of the month focusing on analysis — improving the website, creating better quality ad videos, and fine-tuning the overall system. My plan now is to move slower but smarter. I don’t want to rush again — the goal is to scale the business steadily and strategically.

Thanks for the question and for following! Right now I mainly use paid Facebook and Instagram ads — they work best for my local market, especially since my target audience is slightly older. Of course, it depends on the niche, audience, and platform. If I were building a brand for a younger...

April 2025 Update Alright, so after a strong March where I made 306,000 MKD from just one store, this month I did 246,000 MKD combined from two stores (183K + 63K). So yeah… a clear drop. But honestly — I kinda needed it. I didn’t really shift focus, but I spent a lot of time researching...

Thank you so much, that really means a lot! I’m doing my best to not only build something solid but also to document the whole journey along the way — both the wins and the lessons. I’ll definitely keep the thread updated as things evolve.

Thanks a lot, I really appreciate that! Honestly, the project that taught me the biggest lessons was when I opened my textile business. The very first trip I took to source products was a wake-up call. That’s when I faced real challenges — having to negotiate, solve problems on the go, and...

Thank you so much for your kind words – they truly mean a lot! Comments like yours give me even more motivation to keep pushing forward with focus and purpose. There’s actually a special story behind all of this… Around 30 years ago, before I was even born, my father was just 18 years old when...

Thanks a lot! I really appreciate the support. It’s been a wild ride so far, and I’m just getting started. I’ll definitely keep sharing the journey as I go – both the wins and the lessons. Let’s grow together!
