    EXECUTION 
    We made two more sales today, this time on Amazon. I was a little surprised that these sold being that we aren't really ranking yet for the main simplest searches that I would think people are using (and we haven't done any advertising since what I posted here earlier). Our Amazon price point...

    Have you narrowed it down to a certain genre / niche of products or are you still trying different things? Have you tried buying bulk lots of items on eBay to sell individually? I just bought 800 pieces of a small inexpensive auto accessory item on eBay that somebody probably had produced in...

    Ok thanks that's good advice. I was running facebook ads rather than PPC within Amazon (which I wanted to try but I'm set up as an individual seller right now and can't). Right now I'm using my personal eBay and Amazon accounts because I didn't want to go through making a bunch of new accounts...

    Thanks @Dan44. We do have good news, we got our first sale! The sale actually came organically from eBay. It's a different product than the one we did the fb ads for and have on Amazon. I also lowered the price for eBay as part of the price testing, so for the time being I think we'll go...

    Where the money get spent?

    Yea my general feeling is that if and when I want to donate, I'll do my own research and pick my own charity and my own contribution amount. I don't need some pre-packaged charity deal that's intertwined with an un-related purchase. Edit: But I do understand why some companies do it and I'm...

    The new ad was definitely better received than the first, but still no purchases. Data below, we killed this one after spending about $50. We got some page likes out of it, over 100 likes on the ad, and 23 clicks to Amazon - but no buyers. We're going to regroup on the advertising strategy...

    Where the money get spent?

    I'm a bit skeptical from the start for reasons like you mentioned (some charities spend millions on commercials, or the ceo takes home millions). But assuming that I know the charity is legit but I'm not overly passionate about the cause or the brand of product it still wouldn't have much of a...

    After a mostly unsuccessful $30 spend on the first ad campaign we shut it down in order to make improvements and try something different. The stats are below, and not very good. No purchases, only a few click throughs, and low relevance. I'm open to any help interpreting that data if...

    Alright as of last night I have a $40/day test ad set running for one of the products. Just one ad for the one product that's up on Amazon at the moment. There's room for improvement everywhere (Amazon listing could use more info, more and better pictures, copy could be improved, etc. But I...

    WTF does Tai Lopez do?

    GURUS 
    Exaggerated or lying? He's not just saying something vague like "I've reached success and wealth with the following principles". If he's literally renting a mansion for a day and posting a video saying "Hey, this is my mansion that I own - here's how I got it." he's outright lying. If he's...

    After some time researching, testing, creative problem solving, and producing and we came out with 4 final products that we are very happy with. Quality is great and I think our target price is justifiable. The production time and material costs are right where we expected and everything seems...

    "At the end of his life at age 95, Brendon's annual retirement withdrawals would total about $1.83 million, and his account would be worth about $1.84 million." I hope this guy's next article is about how Brandon made it to 95.

    I did this and it worked out well. Granted my business was validated and making money, I just wasn't ready to make the full jump without a safety net. I was a project manager and working 40-50 hours a week, and it left me mentally drained. I took a big pay cut and did painting/property...

    No reason to be mad, he makes his choices and you make yours. We all start off a little differently, but where you end up is the result of how you handle yourself and what you chose to prioritize. Maybe he's learning a lesson now that you learned 3 years ago, and maybe you're learning a lesson...

    Happy Thanksgiving guys. I'll be spending the earlier part of the day with my girlfriend and her family and then we're heading over to my sister's place for dinner and with my immediate family. Should be a pretty easy going and relaxing day. After drinks and dessert I'll be back home working...

    It took longer than expected (and we're going to miss the holiday selling season) but we now have all materials in hand to make the first sample batch of products. The last supplier I was dealing with was kindof blowing me off for a little while when I was asking about bulk discounts and bulk...
