So - an update.
I just stepped in @
zen*******'s office to chat, and throw out some frustrations LOL.
So - we're in business grind mode. We've completely changed our business model and processes up. We're actually building a funnel, and I'm working on testing that and putting all the necessary pieces in place. It's a metric F*ck ton of work.
Of being more than a year into this business, I thought I'd be rolling in it already.
Even though we've done well in the 6 figures of sales, we aren't rich yet.
Building something like this - takes a lot of time and strategy to think.
Not to mention, it's pretty much my first rodeo - so I've made a lot of mistakes in the way.
The most frustrating part, is I'm waiting on people to get sh!t done (programmers, vendors, etc.).
We've also had to switch manufacturers - but I now have an awesome manufacturer.
I guess, what I'm saying is, Rome wasn't built in a day.
Even though I feel like I'm not going fast enough, Zen says I'm on the right track.
Sometimes, there's a storm to get through before you hit the "green" pastures.
See, I poured almost all of the profits back into the business.
I still live in an apartment, and drive a Toyota Truck with 90k on it.
No, I'm not driving a lambo, yet.
I'm pretty much living like the middle class, to get through the tough part.
Mentally, and monetarily.
So, don't think that this is a 6 month or 12 month process.
It usually takes years to build a kickass, super profitable business. And hey - it's my first time.
I fully believe we will be able to rock this at $1m/month, with 30-40% profit margins.
I'll see you on the other side.
