So I decided that for my first real brand creation. I did some validation with aliexpress dropship and compared to all my other ventures it got good results. It is the leather/bracelet jewelry field
Did some more research and there is massive competition. I was going to start with leather bracelets with iconic metal designs to start then branch off into all leather goods, once it becomes a "brand" These competitors aren't easy by any means. They top-notch products, website, and photos. This got me down, but I am still going to try to pursue it.
I just started researching leather and it is a steep learning curve: costs, time, and knowledge to go into this if I end up manufacturing myself. It will take years for me to become an expert leather workman. There is no doubt that I can't do it, but my goal is to leave my job as soon as possible...Should I outsource a company to do it? The reason I was considering doing it in house, even though I have never cut a piece of leather was that all these high quality brands seem to all manufacture in house and that is what makes their products good.
Taking into consideration my circumstances and goals: In-House or Outsource?
