    Question for people who like to cut ties

    MINDSET 
    I believe in cutting off people who get in your way and try to drag you down to the pathetic lives which they live by. I have a friend or two like that...negative energy doesn't go well with me. Cutting off someone who is less successful than you and that being the only reason is stupidity imo.

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

    IDEA 
    True, for shopify...but if you accept anything in paypal, you'll have trouble with that us dollar canadian bank account. I had one, couldn't link it up in paypal. Which brings me to the subject of paypal...I assumed you accepted it Vick. I would suggest adding it as an option, might increase...

    Fair enough. I noticed on a ton of suppliers I looked up yesterday on Alibaba and I know top competition using them...they all don't have a valid export license in their assessment report. What are your thoughts on this? Everything else in the report checks ok.

    Does my website look "spammy"

    HOT! 
    Depends how it looks but that's my opinion on the matter. I like a nice clean looking header with no ads or clutter. I don't need a newsletter subscription box in the header to get people to subscribe. I've actually never seen a newsletter box in a site header...ever. It serves no real...

    Sorry, can't help you there. Everything I've ever learnt and done was from trial and error, experience.

    Does my website look "spammy"

    HOT! 
    Yes, that too :) I do a lot of web design and development and there's nothing better than a clean ad free header. The second your site loads, bam the ad is in my face, not good. The ad on the lower portion of the right sidebar is ok because by the time I get down there I've read through the...

    Does my website look "spammy"

    HOT! 
    Nice site. Only thing I would get rid of is the ad in the header...I always hated those. The site will look much cleaner once that's removed.

    What was your biggest business and life lesson in 2014?

    GOLD! MINDSET 
    Business - Decided to strap on a set and actually take action instead of read document read read read. I had a bad habit of reading so much info and applying jack shit...this went on throughout 2013 and a bit of 2014. I lost a nice chunk of change in the importing last year, but I learnt a...

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

    IDEA 
    There's a couple of options here which I recommend and have been looking in to, especially b/c of exchange rates. Every time you accept funds in U.S dollars in a paypal account for example, the exchange rate is in favor of Paypal and they scam you in a way with the conversion rates they offer...

    IDEA 
    I was going to mention this also. Vick, I would change your pricing to U.S. You can be making 28.96 more per unit (today's exchange rate).

    In my experience, I've never been scammed by anyone. Most suppliers are also really friendly with awesome support. My biggest issue is quality. I've tested dozens of different products and plenty of different suppliers. It doesn't matter what the product is, the industry, whether it's...

    Want a free hustle idea?

    IDEA 
    I still don't understand how these aren't popular: No eye poking reaching for xmas gifts. On a side note, MJ hit it dead on. There's nothing more fun than a good day out in the snow, axing a nice xmas tree with your significant other or family and ropping that thing to the roof of your car...

    What do you think of Chinese suppliers?

    My personal opinion...go for it, learn, experience and grow. Many wantrepeneurs write out similar plans like yours and do jack shit with it. I say execute and gain some real life experience. Trust me, you'll learn a lot from it.
