Freedom as an entrepreneur (Amusing PM w/Freelancer)
MINDSETLove this thread and the life I’ve created. Being an entrepeneur can often be tough but there are so many things that make it worth while. This week I came down with the flu... first time I’ve ever had it (pretty sure I caught it from someone at the gym... jerks). I’ve spent all week feeling...- Ecom man

How can someone work every waking hour???
HOT!IMO most of it comes down to what you consider working on the business. In the last 2 weeks I have been going into the warehouse every day from 9-3/4. Then I often come home and spend a couple of hours on the computer doing work related items. So I would say the last two weeks I’ve put in 9-10...- Ecom man

[AMA] Importing & wholesaling for resale on eBay.
GOLD! SOURCINGIMO amazon will continue to grow but I don’t think they are making a wise decision in allowing Chinese Sellers to sell on there with long handling times. It has become more like eBay in regards to either having to pay more attention to the listing to make sure you don’t get screwed on the...- Ecom man

Is customer service a good competitive advantage
HOT!As others have stated having good customer service can help. I personally believe it is a strong reason my businesses have done so well. We respond to emails in minutes and have a real phone number where customers can talk to real people from 9-5 every day. All that to say it helps... but...- Ecom man

How much money did you use to start your business?
HOT!Started it with literally $50-$100. I think my first order was for 5 items or something like that lol. Starting is often cheap... it is growing the business that can get real expensive.- Ecom man

Income Store, Legit? NO, A SCAM AS WE PREDICTED.
HOT!Yes, the websites that they buy are mainly through FE international. I have no problem with any saying anything about Income store. I don’t own or advertise it and don’t need or want anyone to sign up for sure. I’m not planning on buying any more until I see how it pans out in a couple of...- Ecom man

[AMA] Importing & wholesaling for resale on eBay.
GOLD! SOURCINGNope I didn’t. Had a pretty rough summer sales wise and turned 30 with “only” 750-800k in hard assets (that’s excluding what I could sell my businesses for but does include cost of the inventory that I have in stock) Sales have been wonky so far this holiday season so far too so not looking like...- Ecom man

Income Store, Legit? NO, A SCAM AS WE PREDICTED.
HOT!No I meant and. They buy a site for 100k (yes that’s how much they spend on buying the site) Then they build one from scratch as well. The one they build is in the same vertical as the one bought so that way they can send traffic to each other (for example if the bought site is a wine site the...- Ecom man

HOT!For 100k they buy one and then also build one. You can sell your website anytime you like to “get out” of the contract. There isn’t a minimum time period before you can sell. You can’t get out of the management contract without selling the site however.- Ecom man

HOT!Same reason people sell 50% of their company to investors. They would rather own 50% of 100,000,000 in assets than to own 100% of 10 million.- Ecom man

HOT!You get a deposit/check monthly for 1.25% of your purchase price or 50% of the revenue the website generated that month whichever is higher. You own the website so you can sell it whenever you want or never your choice.- Ecom man

HOT!Their minimum is 100k. Not trying to sidetrack the thread just what I decided was better for me. They’ve been in busines the minimum site buy is 100k. Not trying to derail the thread but just what I chose to do with my extra money rather than tax liens. (Which I looked into heavily when I was...- Ecom man

Income Store, Legit? NO, A SCAM AS WE PREDICTED.
HOT!Lol sorry it’s called income store. Basically you buy a website and they manage it for you. They take 50% of the website’s profit as their management fee. The other 50% of the profit is yours. They guarantee 15% yearly return at minimum and could obviously be more than that. The website is...- Ecom man
