    How are you creating value to the customer to justify offering a premium price? Do "designer" companies just start offering premium prices for their products from the outset?

    Thanks for your reply. I completely agree with what you're saying. And everything i've read says the same thing online. I have good days and bad days. And i'm definitely reading too much into it. It always seems to follow the same pattern, if i'm not confident in myself how can i expect...

    Yes i've read the Nike book twice. Very inspiring story and it he certainly went through a lot and even said at the end he would do it again! Yes i make a living selling off Ebay and Amazon. Completely agree with the negative reinforcement.

    The current products I sell is difficult to build a brand around. Don’t get me wrong they are branded but you couldn’t build loyal repeat customers. I know I want an online business and build a brand leveraging all sales channels but I don’t know what. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I don't know whether i'm having a mid life crisis at 38 or i'm simply not moving forward because of negativity and doubts. I realised not so long ago that there was something missing from my life, I've got a wife and two kids and no health problems. I work out. I've had my current business...

    Start up Giving away percentage of profits to Charity

    Yes all very valid points. I wouldn’t be donating charity specifically to make it the USP of my business I was simply stating that actually my competitor doesn’t so as a side by side analysis it is. (At any point in the future they could start donating anyway). I was actually looking at it from...

    Start up Giving away percentage of profits to Charity

    I’ve run my own businesses for 20 years. I know how to make a business successful but previously they’ve been commodity type. This one is different and thought it would be the right time to introduce giving back at the same time. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Start up Giving away percentage of profits to Charity

    I’m not saying they will specifically buy because of these reasons. I’m saying if there are two very similar products at the same price then it’s more likely they’ll purchase from the company who offers a percentage to charity than one who doesn’t. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Start up Giving away percentage of profits to Charity

    Yes i can understand that. It was actually an episode of Shark Tank that gave me the idea in the first place when a company called Sand Cloud where on there. They donate 10% to marine life. Looking at their website i don't think it comes across as sleazy. Our Mission

    I'll make this short and sweet. No it's not a good idea. Avoid at all costs.

    Start up Giving away percentage of profits to Charity

    I'd be specifically helping disadvantaged and terminally ill Children's charities so i'd expect they'd feel pretty good. Whether that's enough for them to choose my company over a competitors remains to be seen.

    Thanks Dan. I have a competitor in my space who has excellent branding and fantastic customer service. Our products are pretty similar also. They have 4 years head start on me. They don't however give to charity. One of my thoughts was that it would be a USP compared to them and i could also...
