    Where to offload overstock apparel?

    Something must be up with those Likes on FB. While there are almost 500K, their posts don't get much more than a .0004 "like" rate.

    Where to offload overstock apparel?

    Welcome to the forum. First, great work getting up and going so quickly....I'm familiar with the industry and know it's not that easy. Second, because your purchased traffic and Facebook ads aren't working as you'd like, you're tossing your inventory out the window? With close to 500K...

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

    IDEA 
    Good idea, but be careful. I have already had run-ins with multiple Instagram people that have over 90K "followers". Only to find out that 90% of them were fake/purchased. There are legitimate accounts out there though...just takes time to find them.

    IDEA 
    No, it's more expensive with many more regulations and limitations. They will also only ship books and some media internationally from the US. Not to mention the fees you get hit with if you ever want to remove stock. PM me for a US based fulfillment company that also specializes in importing...

    IDEA 
    It took 1.5 months for a package I sent to Uruguay to arrive via USPS. Then, they didn't deliver it and retuned it to me after 2 months. All the paperwork was completed correctly. In the meantime I sent another package via FedEx and it was delivered in 3 days. May be a random occurrence but...

    (First Post) Starting A Fitness Apparel Company: My Plan

    EXECUTION 
    I disagree. ALL of the weight should be on your back...and yours alone. Buy out the other person or send them on their way. Ha.....yea, that's horrible ;)

    Trademarking Rules

    Question for a Lawyer. But the answer is no...most of the time. Possibly yes depending on the situation. You get the idea.

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

    IDEA 
    I agree. Most of the reason they have razor thin margins is the fact they sell the same products people can buy anywhere else. They can't charge a premium for anything. In our case, this isn't true as it's the one an only place people can get KEEPTIGHT® brand gear...same goes for @Vick and...

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

    IDEA 
    I've struggled with the same question. While we're doing our best to provide exacting measurements etc on all our products, I know that when women get them, a good % will not fit. With sunglasses I think the chance of this is less but still there. If I were to offer a "doesn't fit" return...

    My first real attempt at marketing our company!

    MARKETING 
    You should consider selling your percentage in the company and starting anew. Then all of your efforts here would benefit you and your company......not your partners.
