    Selling my Ecommerce Business

    GOLD! 
    If you read "The E-Myth Revisited", that is exactly what the author heavily recommends throughout the entire book - record processes for everything so that literally anyone can be trained to run the business in the exact same way. Basically run your business like a franchise. In practice...

    Heard of Forever Jobless? It was started by a former forum member (maybe he's still around?) @snowbank who was a former professional poker player. Also built bluefirepoker and challenged obama I believe to a poker match. Sold it for 7 figures. https://foreverjobless.com/my-story/ Maybe...

    Biophase - Introducing My Ecommerce/Amazon Business Coaching Program

    MARKETPLACE 
    Yeah I don't get it. Bio is one of the most respected folks on this forum and one of the few who has stayed here for the long haul. There have been a lot of great and successful folks who "gave up" on this place or simply moved on but Bio stays as part of the community and helps folks daily...

    Anyone ship from Canada to the US before?

    Check out secureship - they may have better prices from the big carriers. Canada post is also usually the cheapest for most situations. Just ship it to the destination. Don't overthink it right now. Hit up Canada post or whatever, fill out the customs forms with proper values (replacement...

    I will help you find a product to sell on Amazon

    GOLD! 
    I saw something like this while travelling through Chicago airport to get back to Canada. They had setup an indoor play area but it was all airport themed. It had runway lights, a makeshift cockpit, a children's checklist book, a ticket counter, a raised air traffic control center, etc... all...

    Finding Very Specific Information About People.

    MARKETING 
    What's your average lifetime customer value? Couldn't you hire college / uni kids on commission and give them a pretty sweet per-house payout that's still well under your LCV? Example: - Each house pays you $50 per month for service. - Each house stays with you for 2 years - LCV = $1,200...

    Days Of Frustration

    The next step of whatever I'm working on. I find frustration comes from not knowing what to do, or how to do it, or not seeing the results of what you're doing. If there's a next step, it gives you something to focus on, and hope of change. If there's no next step, then you have nothing to...

    Our Kickstarter Is Live! Follow Along!

    EXECUTION 
    I was not. I meant to get into HARO but instead spent a lot of time and effort on individual press efforts of me reaching out. It was on my list but somehow got forgotten in the hustle and bustle. Certainly would be more organized the next time around.

    Not Amp, but, if it were me: 1. Treat accounting as a major, not a minor, part of the business. Track everything, and do it properly and regularly. Track inventory using COGS - this makes a HUGE difference in how good your numbers look. Huge, huge difference on the spreadsheet since you only...

    This will likely be the go-to reference thread for people looking to sell their business for years man. Great job with all this. Can't wait to see you close this off :)

    I'd love this feature but this is the only way that makes sense IMHO. Personally I'd happily add myself.

    What book are you reading? Right now. Post up!

    NOTABLE! HOT! BOOKS CHAT 
    Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance I read this a long time ago and wasn't "in the mood for it" so got rid of it. Then I found out it's one of those books that just sticks to your mind. I kept re-thinking about it for years and finally decided it was the perfect book to bring on vacation...

    Best Whiskey you've ever had

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Nobody mentioned it but a lot of people don't realize that the whiskey in the bottle does not age. So while you may have a physical bottle that is 50 years old, if the label says "12 year", it's a 12 year whiskey. Whiskey ages in the barrel and is stopped completely in the bottle. However...

    Best Whiskey you've ever had

    OFF-TOPIC 
    As previously mentioned, this stuff: I don't know how I came across it but this stuff blew me away the first time I had it. It was one of those "stop everything, something special is going on here" moments. It's amazingly affordable which may turn some people off but IMHO this is what I would...

    Honestly, I didn't expect it but that was some of the best whiskey I've ever had. The novelty of being a Japanese whiskey on top of it being a world class whiskey in and of itself makes this a winner IMHO. Also - while this isn't a "top shelf" recommendation by any means, I personally think it...
