    Tips for Marketing

    MARKETING 
    I hate when people say SEO is free. It's not. Not at all. Not to mention the time spent... If you think SEO is "free" you don't know what you're talking about.

    BigCommerce Rest In Peace (Alternatives Re: Price Increase)

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Did you even check their templates? They are responsive. Ah X-Cart...back when I had a job I worked for two companies that ran x-cart. It's was a pain to work with (needed a dev for themes), so I don't know if that's changed, but the software worked very well. I've worked with Magento, and...

    BigCommerce Rest In Peace (Alternatives Re: Price Increase)

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Hmm never dealt with having a store with that many SKUs, but yah that kind of sucks. But....$80 is a drop in the bucket if your store is doing even decently and you need their features. Like you said, BC is probably the best choice for you.

    BigCommerce Rest In Peace (Alternatives Re: Price Increase)

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    UltraCart seems to fly under the radar here, but there are some multi-million dollar ecommerce businesses that run it. I've used it, and was happy with it. The downsides is they don't have as many templates as Shopify/Big Commerce, BUT you can do upsells and build major funnels with UltraCart...

    From Affiliate Marketing To Importing And Ecommerce

    MARKETING 
    You're right, I have little marketing experience before I started marketing my own products. The exception is I had a bit of experience with Adwords from a company I worked for. I also devoured every single piece of marketing information I could find. Every book, every guide, EVERYTHING. You...

    [AMA] SEO and Digital Marketing in 2016

    HOT! MARKETING 
    Can you give us some credentials? How many sales you have driven using SEO? What do you do, exactly for your company in terms of digital marketing and SEO? Can you back your claims up of being an expert in this field?

    Quote of the Day - QOTD

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Another one I like: "You don't need a million dollar idea, you need a one dollar idea that a million people will buy." For those of you searching for that million or billion dollar idea, which is really preventing you from getting started.

    Selling on Amazon? Amazon Vendors are vastly different than Amazon Sellers.

    HOT! MARKETING 
    If you look when you're setting up your ads (the right hand column ones on competitor's products) you can see Amazon has a preview of a bunch of the ads - there is one titled email. It's on my to do list, but just not a priority at the moment. I have a friend who sells both FBA and Vendor...

    Selling on Amazon? Amazon Vendors are vastly different than Amazon Sellers.

    HOT! MARKETING 
    Dude, this thread rocks. I actually have known about the vendor express sponsored products, but have neglected to set it up until now. Just set up a test campaign (thanks to this thread as a reminder), and I already had a vendor express account set up when I first learned of it. I'll update...

    AMA: New Supplement Biz, Profitable in Month 1

    AMA 
    I really don't like all of the name-calling going on in the forum. Ben has been very helpful, and I'm sure he gets tired of the same questions. First, if you know anything about supplements, health, food products - you know that no one in the USA wants products from China. Second, the...

    Hello from Bali ;)

    Welcome. I was living in Bali for 6-7 months and absolutely loved it. Surfed 3-5 times a week. Currently traveling through Vietnam. Great to see another traveler here. Bali is an awesome place to establish an Entrepreneur hub. You can also live like a King there on a very small budget - if...

    Thoughts on Paid Amazon Services?

    MARKETING 
    That's not necessarily true. Many businesses were built when it was easy to "game" SEO - and have had success long term. There is nothing wrong with exploiting a strategy - but you need to adapt as the system changes and grows. If you can't adapt, that's when you're left high and dry.

    Good point. The ticket is going to a forum member, although I'm not sure he posts much here any more. As soon as I send the cash I'll send the info to Red and MJ. The other ticket is for a forum member and a friend of his. I'll touch base and see who his friend is. And yah, don't worry, I...
