    Creating my own product in eCommerce

    Yeah, definitely I won't have enough time to test BOTH at the same time (Freelance work taking most of my time) but yeah, I just need to pick the easiest one to start with

    Creating my own product in eCommerce

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    27/03/2021 Got stuck into analysis paralysis. I have another product that might have a good opportunity but is a bit trickier to manufacture. Option 1: + Already kinda exists (means there is demand for it) + Probably easy to create - Hard to make content for it - Don't know if it would...

    Creating my own product in eCommerce

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    Haha, yeah, timelines are good but 90% of the time they don't get respected. For steps 4 & 5 I'm going to use a 3D render to see if the product gets some traction. People will subscribe to the email list, if I see that I have lots of subscribers, I'll try to source it. I don't have the...

    Creating my own product in eCommerce

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    21/03/2021 I'm making a spreadsheet with all the possible competitors, blogs, youtube channels, etc... It's long to do, I HATE doing that (pretty much anything involved in market research), so I'll likely put one of my assistants on it. I haven't progressed much, I only did a persona...

    Creating my own product in eCommerce

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    13/03/2021 I selected the product I wanted to begin with. Might not be the one I'll end up with, but I need to start with something. The mains criteria that made me choose this product are the fact that it's a pretty simple product, it already exists but can be improved (based on some reviews)...

    Creating my own product in eCommerce

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    Heya ! I posted almost 1 year ago about starting an ecom biz. Long story short, the first one failed, the 2nd one (dropshipping) is still running to that day without putting much effort into it. It generated some profit. I used ~$1500 personally and I keep what's left to invest later into new...

    I start my idea today (eCommerce + POD)

    HOT! IDEA 
    Made more than $200k SALES, but profit has gone to shit. I'm not working a lot on it, to be honest, I've become a lazy potato, and I spend most of my time doing stupid stuff like playing video games, I have 0 motivation haha Pretty sure I could have done much more if I worked on it tho

    Update 15/08/2020 It seems like the dead-period is over for most of my ecommerce friends. I'm starting to get good results again, I hope it will keep being this way. I sent a newsletter to my whole email list yesterday (20 000 people), and it generated more than a minimum wage in net profit...

    The current store is mostly dropshipping with POD as upsell. My goal is to promote the POD stuff more, since it's automated and delivered faster. I really like the sub model, and I plan to try it soon. For me, brand = aiming long-term and building a relationship instead of direct-response sale.

    Update 02/08/2020 Haven't posted for a long time, but I reached the 6 figure mark in the meantime. However, results are really shitty now, from 20% to less than 10% margin. I was on vacation and haven't done much, but I took a bunch of pictures to try new creatives. I'm starting to test new...

    I'm selling to the US so, not in my case, but yeah, entrepreneurship in France is garbage, that's the main reason I'm moving out asap :) To give some context to non-French: In France you can do business without creating a company. You don't have to hold any accounting or stuff, BUT, you pay...

    Update 01/07/2020 So, the results are pretty stable but profit plumeted. End of Q2 is never good (Way more competition to finish marketing budgets, so ad cost is increasing a lot) from ~20% to a bit less then 10% Since it's the begining of a new Q, I'll see how it goes. $70 000 of sales in...

    Update 25/06/2020 I'm doing more than $3000/day pretty much everyday. I'll let another week pass, and if things are stable, I'll look into really pushing this further by importing stock in the US to get a faster shipping delay Oh, I'm also moving to Bali when the borders will be opened again !

    Update 21/06/2020 I just bought 1000 custom packaging with my logo, and I plan to look into US fulfilling soon to deliver a better shipping experience. Main goals atm: Improve customers experience (packaging + faster shipping delay + better customers service) Engage the community with content...

    Yup, definitively, that's the most profitable campaigns for my clients Problem is the shipping delay, lots of them don't order again until they receive the product, and it takes 15-25 days for my main one

    Update 18/06/2020 My new VA seems to be really good ! Asking lots of questions (and good ones), I don't have to manage customers service anymore, what a relief ! I'm not posting much here because most of my focus is into the website at the moment, but what I figured out is that testing...
