Hello All,<br />
<br />
I had a successful Fish Oil for Dogs product on Amazon.<br />
<br />
The problem of the business is it violated the C in cents. Amazon had control of my business and success. I am skilled in Graphic Design, Product photography, and WordPress. I am interested in owning an unscripted business at some point in my life.<br />
<br />

</blockquote>Why can't you expand this business to other channels? <br />
<br />
Amazon should be a part of <a href="https://www.thefastlaneforum.com/community/threads/is-e-commerce-still-alive-for-2022-2023-and-how-to-make-it-a-fastlane-success.105833/" class="link link--internal">many e-com strategies</a> - BUT not the only route. What other avenues have you tried? Did you start building up a customer list? Do you have your own website? <br />
<br />
A business does not need to fit all the tenets of CENTS to be successful, or even to be <a href="https://www.thefastlaneforum.com/community/threads/fastlane-success-8-figure-exit-now-back-to-the-starting-ground.103705/" class="link link--internal">sold in an big exit. </a><br />
<br />
So what's the actual dilemma you are currently facing?</div>
