    SOCIAL MEDIA MARKETING 
    Can you provide some tips. How do you actually start from 0 to your first 1000 followers on Instagram? And then how would you replicate that across various channels. Is there a way to decide on what to center your personal brand in a way that is marketable but also within your interests? Is...

    $500,000+ revenue on Shopify!

    NOTABLE! 
    @Sanj Modha you mentioned that the max shipping time should be about 7 days, but you had posted an article about dropshipping with AliExpress which usually takes 3-4 weeks to get to customers. What are your thoughts on that? From your experience, do customers tolerate these waits. Is there any...

    For anyone following I also discovered something pretty cool during research. You can find and research the top Shopify stores to see what products are being sold, prices etc. If you go here: 23.227.38.56 Shopify, Inc Whois | Myip.ms And then click on "Other Sites on IP" You get a list of the...

    Shopify store and first 10 sales

    EXECUTION 
    Hey Walter this is great information! I definitely see your point. The reason I've shyed away from right now is two reasons: I think it needs more than $500 to source and improve upon a product. It's possible to find a good product and get a decent amount for say $500, but once you try to make...

    Excellent info. With #4 when you enter 999 and see they have X amount, what are you looking for here? Do you mean see if it keeps selling throughout the week? If so wouldn't sales rank give that info.

    EXECUTION 
    So I've been dilly dallying a lot and very indecisive about making entrepreneurial decisions, because of this indecision I've decided that: I will be a little more playful in fulfilling goals not make assumptions that everything has to be some passion or life long mission, and simply lower my...

    Ask me anything about eCommerce (Ongoing)

    GOLD! 
    EDIT: I read someone else mentioned this later in the thread. Feel free to delete. Didn't amazon make this against terms last year, for a seller to give free samples in exchange for a review? I'm aware that people can still leave reviews by getting free samples, but I'm referring to the...

    You Will Never Be A Millionaire!

    HOT! MINDSET 
    It's unfortunate, but I've found that you have to be really careful sharing your internal desires with others. To be fair, I'm sure there are many psychological reasons why it doesn't work well. Especially one being the other persons fear that you will outgrow and leave them behind which...

    Do you really need to read 52 books this year? And other media consumption.
