    eCommerce Success - Three Years on the Fastlane Forum

    SOURCING EXECUTION 
    Got some more shipments in today. I'm posting this to show what "taking action" really is. I had the FedEx driver meet me at my garage to drop them off. Then, I carried them up to the third floor (two boxes at a time). Sometimes you have to put a little sweat into your business. Here's after...

    SOURCING EXECUTION 
    I'm not familiar with gaming the system. The keywords on my products are the same keywords I put on when I first made the listings. Most of my products are on the first page. I dominate some of the categories so it's not much of a concern. No idea. :playful:

    TAMPA BAY, FL Fastlane Meetup

    MEETUPS 
    As it gets closer to January (maybe mid-December?), post in this thread again with a date or two that you'd like to meetup with other Fastlaners. Most of the time we're interested in meeting up whenever.

    SOURCING EXECUTION 
    I've been looking at launching some new SKUs recently. I thought of some different products that'd go well with my current ones. The kinds of products that customers might buy them at the same time as buying the other products I currently sell. I decided on some and contacted around a dozen...

    It might be a good move for you haha. I bought a theme from Themeforest and customized it quite a bit. The new design is a huge improvement from what I had in WooCoommerce too. Look up Famiza on Themeforest.

    It's funny because I originally started with WooCommerce to have that control. But after a while, I wanted something simpler and easier to make changes. Dealing with WordPress and WooCommerce wasn't too fun of an experience. I figured that Shopify with a simple template would work better for...

    I do all of the copy myself so I don't have anyone I can recommend. I'm pretty sure there's copywriting threads that might have people with more experience hiring out copywriting. @SinisterLex might be able to give a good recommendation. I'll PM you the guy I use as a consultant/advisor for...

    Today I want to talk about creating a team for your business and how I use Upwork to expand my time. There's a lot of threads talking about using Upwork to work for others, and that's great to earn some additional income. But, the flip side is using Upwork to have others work for you. This...

    SOURCING EXECUTION 
    Thank you for your insights! Everything you said makes a lot of sense. I wouldn't have known any of that. That sucks. I really thought Walmart had potential. I agree from my own experience onboarding. I haven't done the 2 sample orders. But, there was an unnecessarily long back and forth...

    This one is a very interesting one. I remember reading this and thinking.. "whaaa...?" The other ones are really annoying too. haha I'm still going to continue with this as planned. I wonder if reality is different from all the "rules." The main one that I'm worried about is the one hour...

    SOURCING EXECUTION 
    Yes, some of their terms seem extreme / annoying. Not recommending this, but I question how often will Walmart actually monitor everything a seller is doing on their website vs on Walmart? Is there a certain amount of sales that you'd have to generate to make the extra effort of matching your...

    Not Sure If This is The Healthiest Thing to Visualize(But it Works)

    MINDSET 
    That's awesome that it works for you. I don't purposely visualize the sidewalkers/slowlaners who have been naysayers toward me, but the visuals do come back from pretty frequently. Them: "you can't do that." Me: "why not?" Those people from my past have been a major part in fueling my inner...

    Thanks man. I'm glad you took something away from that convo haha. I enjoy having meetups and talking with people in person. It's great to be around like minded people. Many people seem to be "interested" in starting a business, but once in a while someone actually takes action and starts...

    You're welcome :) This reminded me of a quote by Gary Halbert: "You're either going to be afraid and frozen, or, you're going to be scared and moving." Personally, I'd rather be moving.

    SOURCING EXECUTION 
    I'm honestly not sure what to expect from selling on Walmart and Jet. It's a situation where I could see 0 sales and it wasn't worth it. Or, I could get some sales and added a new stream of revenue. No one really knows until the products are up and for sale. I did take a look at other products...

    Thanks for providing more detail on this. I think it's important for people to understand that Amazon is only a sales channel. And, it just happens to get massive traffic so that's why people buy/sell on there. It doesn't make sense to avoid Amazon.
