    8 Eyewear: From Idea, to Launch, to Growth (And Quitting the Job)

    IDEA 
    Vick, Just a bit of food for thought. I've noticed that when I push ads to my site my amazon sales also go up quite a bit (usually more so than the actual sales to my site - if FB traffic anyway) It's a spillage effect. The retailer may be capitalizing on your ad spend. You may be fine with...

    Imagine you are free to do and have some money (say, 10000 Euro) saved up. What do you do?

    Get a job? I remember being 22 with around $20k saved up. I just got back to the states after 3.5 years in Japan and I thought I was doing pretty damn well for myself ($20k lol). I bought a 350Z, chased college girls, and would randomly hop in my car and drive 10 hours down to Miami for a...

    Ask Me Anything about Kiosks and Mall Retail

    MARKETING 
    Thanks. Would this be dependent on the location of the mall? Do you think it's always better to go for the high dollar sales instead of sales in the $15-$50 range? I would think it would be hard to sell a lot in the high $ range out of a kiosk unless you're in HNW areas of the U.S.. I could be...

    Ask Me Anything about Kiosks and Mall Retail

    MARKETING 
    Thanks. Your thread got me interested. I've kicked around the idea of setting up a small kiosk in one of the malls out here but the reason behind my questions would be to see if it's viable to be a supplier to kiosks. Thanks for the thread. I guess it's one more thing to look into.

    Ask Me Anything about Kiosks and Mall Retail

    MARKETING 
    Are the products you sell your own personal brand? Where do most kiosk owners source their products from? Do you / they have a criteria when selecting a suitable product to sell? Curious the thought process when it comes to kiosk business owners. Do most think "I want to start a kiosk what...

    Should I be worried about this order?

    Send them a message to thank them for the order and ask what they intend to do with the product(s) Gather data incase you need to take legal action against them.

    E-commerce + driving traffic

    EXECUTION 
    Charge $12 + $5 shipping. (You're only out $1 if they take that ) When an item is added you can have a notification saying free shipping when they purchase 2 or more (or x $'s) Should help increase conversions. Have you tried sending abandoned cart emails?

    8 Eyewear: From Idea, to Launch, to Growth (And Quitting the Job)

    IDEA 
    Can the R8 be turned into a business asset though? I get where you're coming from but I'm thinking when selling a luxury product the appearance of luxury can be an asset. The name is also fitting..an RX8 doesn't quite do it. I just googled hemi 8 and I wanted to vomit. I thought it was an engine...
