    How to ship from US

    Technically speaking, it can still ship to other countries, but it would ship from the US warehouse. But I understand what you mean now. No, there is no way to fix that. It's been a complaint about Oberlo for the past couple of years.

    How to ship from US

    Wholesale Ted went over this: When you're importing, on your Import List page, uncheck the variants that say China, or whatever country you're excluding. Done.

    Chartboost Flippa question

    Could be part of it. Most of it has to do with the age of their Chartboost account - the longer you have an account, the more apps/installs you have, the better PPI, etc. So if you're just starting out, your payouts will be crap. I'm not paying $2,000 for that. I remember (this was back in...

    Chartboost Flippa question

    No, I did not purchase. I felt like it was a little misleading and you're paying for her "system" rather than the app itself and that's not what I was interested in buying.

    Mindset question

    Exactly my thoughts - I even said to him straight up that his guarantee is just words on the screen and hold no value unless he could tell me what I'm putting in and what I'm getting out of it. I'm not going to waste my time filling out an application only for him to tell me he wants the sun...

    Mindset question

    Honestly, I don't think it's worth asking him anymore. We went back and forth a couple of emails and basically his answer was that the course would be more than $3500 (which is the amount he "guarantees" he will stay with you to make) and that it's in non-fiction publishing. From the emails, it...

    Mindset question

    I think they are good words to live by. It sounded too good to be true to me, so I asked him about it and basically got the runaround. That pretty much clinched it for me, but I wanted to ask here for opinions on if I made the wrong decision by not taking the offer. For what it's worth, he's...

    Mindset question

    That is the absolute truth right there. Look, BHW may be home to some unscrupulous methods of making money, but at the same time, we are honest about it. At least that's always been my experience here.

    Mindset question

    I couldn't tell you for sure because I didn't even bother applying to the program. I'm guessing at the $10,000 figure. I have no idea what he's actually charging because he wouldn't tell me unless I applied. When I asked him, he gave me that BS I said above about not having the right mindset...

    Mindset question

    Sounds basically like what I found only he went into more specifics. Find a profitable niche (and he gives examples of them) Go to Amazon and read reviews of books in that niche Improve upon what people complained about and model after what they liked Go to odesk (I guess now upwork, right?)...

    Mindset question

    I don't entirely agree with this. I agree that it's a lot more complicated than one guy changing your life. But at the same time, sometimes having that one person show you the ropes, if you're willing to put in the work, can make a world of difference. But yes, the general idea I agree with...

    Mindset question

    I'm a bit confused - first you say that no successful Kindle publisher bothers spending time teaching people because it's easier to scale their publishing business, but then you offer exactly that - to teach me the system. Doesn't that contradict what you just said?

    Mindset question

    I would say that most people use the two words interchangeably. I wouldn't say you are wrong, though. On both accounts. He's not selling a mentorship. He's selling a coaching program that he tries to pass off as a mentorship because the "income potential is life-changing." Yeah, except after the...

    LOL. It does set off the bullshit meter, right? I wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something.

    Mindset question

    That was pretty much my thought after reading the pitch, but I figured I'd bite and ask. Then when I got his answer, I thought, yeah, no thanks. You mentioned Digital Academy before. I thought maybe that was a product or something. I wasn't sure if "outing" this person was the right thing to...

    Mindset question

    I mean, should I name names? This is a person who is on WF and is big in the Kindle space. Incidentally, I dug around and found an older version of his program. I'm pretty sure what he's selling now is basically the same thing but with online modules instead of just a Word doc.

    Mindset question

    Makes sense. The weird part is that I'm already on his list. I guess maybe he's segmenting it into "big spender" vs his other cheaper products. He hasn't tried to downsell me on anything, but then again I didn't apply either. Maybe I'm just not a fan of his marketing style. If I ask you how...

    Mindset question

    I think that's exactly it - he won't make up the shortfall. He's promising he'll make you $3 grand or whatever and that's that. You'd be on your own and he's moved on to selling his coaching program to someone else. So he is making bank and you're stuck 7k in the hole. I'm just guessing, of...

    Mindset question

    I did. I believe it's website-based/membership program, so not available. That's what I thought. If you won't even tell me the price before you make me fill out an application to "see if we are a good fit" then I can already tell you that we won't be a good fit. Not many details are given...

    Mindset question

    Hey folks, One of the marketers that I subscribe to recently offered a paid mentorship program. I know mentorships are not allowed here, so that's not what this is about. But it got me thinking - are paid mentorships ever legit? I have a feeling that despite it being common in the corporate...
