    My kid just doesn't get it

    When I was 15 I took a summer job putting in hardwood floors. It was a lot of hard work, long hours every day, and I got paid minimum wage to do it. From that experience I learned a few things. 1) An even better work ethic than I already had, 2) I did not like working for someone else, and 3) I...

    18 Year Old Taking Action: eCommerce Progress Thread

    EXECUTION 
    Thanks for the support! :) Sorry, I meant to say that the cost of each unit is under 1 dollar. Not sure if you misinterpreted that or not. I sell each single item for about 5 dollars, they aren't sold in packs. So there is a great markup in terms of % of cost, about 1000%. But it only ends up...

    18 Year Old Taking Action: eCommerce Progress Thread

    EXECUTION 
    Fun little side note: A few weeks back I was helping a friend at a warehouse he works at. We went to take some trash out and found tons of those dancing water speakers inside the dumpster that another warehouse had thrown out! All of them are still in their original packing from the...

    INTRO 
    Yeah, my average sale is 5 dollars. It's a one time purchase for most people. I don't think I have ever had a repeat customer. I have been trying to figure out how to increase the avg purchase price. I have some things in the works that will hopefully bring some good results.

    18 years old filling orders from mom's basement

    INTRO 
    I use Wordpress and a free shopping cart that integrates with PayPal. I want to switch to a different shopping cart, though. Just to make checkout slick and simple for my customers. I can't remember exact shipping costs, but I know that when I had to find a new supplier a while back I paid about...
