    Building an Amazon business from the ground up!

    EXECUTION 
    Be very careful about starting an 'amazon' business per se. Start a business by all means but don't have it revolving around amazon. They can close your income and business down with a click if of a button. Don't have all your eggs in one basket with it. Use it to leverage at the start but...

    Mondays don't suck. It's your job...

    EXECUTION 
    Very good point. The only issue I tend to have with that is I live in a working class city and although I can more or less do what I want every day my friends and family can't. Even the local radio station annoys me when nearly every day I hear it's only so many days to the weekend let's all...

    Follow the system?

    We've all read books where the author has said you need to create a system/machine for your business and as the Ceo/owner/manager etc your job is to maintain the machine and make adjustments here and there. Or what about the end game, is it really possible to create a step by step system to get...

    [AMA] Importing & wholesaling for resale on eBay.

    GOLD! SOURCING 
    I actually only sell electronic products. And in a very specific niche. There is a lot of competition but it doesn't stop me selling over £1m a year of them. If there isn't competition and you start selling something trust me there soon will be. I and another seller had a product we were...

    As someone on this forum told me a short time ago (you know who you are!) when I was debating whether to close my computer repair business, turn the page. I won't regret it. Well I turned the page and closed the business. I haven't regretted it once! You've done the same. Well done and best...

    When will you realise the one thing you can't get back is time?

    I was inspired to write this thread by my "lovely" Mother-in-Law of all people. My MIL is a frivolous person when it comes to money and i've got no problem with that (well i have but that's another story). Now when my MIL told me what she'd done the other day i nearly blew a gasket. The woman...

    [AMA] Importing & wholesaling for resale on eBay.

    We had issues with Google not showing low search volume keywords when doing adwords. Google shopping results however doesn't have this problem so I'm hoping when we roll that out shortly we'll see a boost in website sales. Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk

    How do you find competing with Amazon and eBay for search engine rankings on Google? It seems most of the time eBay and amazon are position 1 and 2 in the search results for most products I search for! Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk

    I certainly did, I have a decision to make over two different software solutions I am considering using which has been dragging on for weeks. I've have made an appointment today for Thursday with a company who created one of them and I will make a final decision by the end of Thursday! Sent...

    Be a Decision Maker

    MINDSET 
    I couldn't agree more and this is definitely an area I need to improve on. I've spent days mulling over a decision I need to make and still do if I'm honest. My wife calls me a schizophrenic businessman because I change my mind that often. A lot of posts I make on here are generally advice...

    As an e-commerce business we rely heavily on software and automation to perform a lot of daily tasks. We have been using the same software now for 5 years. However it now lacks some of the features we require. For example it does not manage our stock across multiple market places (Ebay, Amazon...

    Amazon/Ebay sales v own website

    I've just been informed by a supplier of mine that one of our competitors is having great results with google shopping ads. I've never tried these before. I think it's also a way around the Low search volume issue that plagues adwords. anyone had any joy with google shopping ads directing...

    Amazon/Ebay sales v own website

    Thanks for the reply. How come you're no longer selling on EBay? Profit margins are very low on my products (sometimes $2.50 per sale) which isn't ideal for ppc. I think it's definitely worth another look though. Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk
