    Thoughts on competing against big box?

    Thanks for the response! The company already makes the product; and they print a very specific style of art on it. However, I have created different printable art I want them to license. This art is in a significantly different style/category that I am confident will sell.

    Welcome and best to you on your endeavors. Way to act. Relatedly, seems everybody on this forum is doing a soap business. And like the housing market, beware the mess when the soap bubble pops! I'm sorry; I had to. ;)

    Pick a niche industry/category. Look at those websites. Lots are terrible. Offer to build a better one. Someone here wrote a nice thread about this. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Desire but no direction

    Welcome to the forum. Here's the thing: entrepreneurship isn't for everybody. However, if you want to do it, keep grinding until you can't. There are a bunch of ideas on this forum (peruse them to open up your mind). Also, start taking action. Make notes of pain points you could solve in...

    Thoughts on competing against big box?

    EDIT: "big box" is misnomer, I forgot to edit the title before posting. whoops. "supplier" is more appropriate. I've researched a category dominated by one major supplier and the distant second place goes to a smaller niche supplier in that category. However, I've found that this category...

    Thanks for your response. Curious if you'd stay away from Bluetooth because of the risk in QC or something else? I guess I won't be sending you the product if you don't recommend me distributing it XD

    Is opening a Coffee Shop a good idea ?

    HOT! IDEA 
    This might be your problem here. There's always a need. The ones who make it big see it and fill it first/best. Barrier to entry + need are two of the Fastlane commandments. If you dodge them, guess what? You often end up not in the Fastlane.

    Is opening a Coffee Shop a good idea ?

    HOT! IDEA 
    start with NEED. Is there a need for coffee shops where you are? If there's one on every block, sorry, no need. However, if you know a lot about coffee, and lots of people are consuming it, can you supply a need within that market? Not distributing coffee itself, but something else...

    Why don't store do consignment? It seems like a no-brainer for them because there's no risk.

    lol, no. this product exists in very similar forms. however, i am concerned about the marketing of it. if it's positioned as a kindle page turner, do people get it without too much eductation?

    what about a Bluetooth remote for phones that works with kindle, so you can turn pages hands free when in bed? some people use these to read in bed because it's uncomfortable to hold the phone up for long periods of time. But if you have one of these, you still have to raise your arm every...

    What is the most important ideology you have learnt about entrepreneurship?

    1) forget events. reprogram your mind to find process rewarding in itself. For example, everybody feels great about having six-pack abs (event), but they hate working out. But, you can learn to feel accomplished/good for doing the thing that gets you those abs; i.e. I feel great when I've...
