    Great question. I've thought about this for a very long time over the past months and I yet have to find an answer to that. I can certainly say that I've learned insanely much over a rather short period of time that will undoubtedly benefit me in the long run. I think if I would have made the...

    I do agree. It's something you'll hear over and over again in business and yet some people have to experience it themselves to really understand it. Focus and mental clarity are immensely important. Thoughts about nootropics or prescribed medication for concentration crossed my mind more than...

    What could go wrong going 150 mph in a rusty 23-year-old honda civic? By now it was mid-March 2018 and it finally became too much to handle. The final semester of University was knocking on the door. Another thesis, company-projects, group works, final oral examination to finish the degree. My...

    Money never sleeps... right? I don’t exaggerate when I say I’m missing the vast majority of memories of the first half of 2018. It’s all one big blur which can only be recalled when I’m looking at transaction histories, chat logs or actual things I’ve made during that time. Permanent stress...

    This one time November came around... Time went on and things were going smoothly. It was nearly November and I was already knee deep into the crypto stuff. Most of my “investments” did well. Very well. I continued to invest in ICOs and altcoins. Like every year during that time, University...

    Going down the rabbit hole The vast majority of my time during summer was spent on anything cryptocurrency related. Soon enough I started to trade altcoins on Bittrex and Binance. I scanned the main news sites like a hawk as a single article would catapult coins up 30% within 10 minutes. My...

    Alright guys, time for round 2 of me throwing out a novel as a thread before I leave another year or two and live to tell another tale. Maybe some of you remember me from my Amazon FBA thread I’ve written 2 years ago. I thought about adding what this story to the Amazon thread, however, I...

    It's not a business model - it's a part of it. "People don't buy goods and services. They buy relations, stories and magic." Great OP, thanks for the bump.

    Sorry for the delayed response, I'm busier than ever. @NanoDrake, @Temujin pretty much said what I would have stated. Yes you're 100% right. I absolutely rely on Amazon and if they decide to change things up I will have to suffer the consequences. I learned that lesson after they deactivated...

    Great write up and good job! I like how you structured your text! ;) What I can tell you from my first order is to make sure you don't run out of stock and lose steam. It seems like your delivery time is 5 weeks (35 days), so take that into calculations when your sales stay between 5-10 a day...

    Hi @biophase. I'm struggling to receive reviews on my products and I would like to ask what kind of action you take to increase yours. I thought about sending a follow up email with a discount code for further purchases and raise the review subject while doing so. Do you have some tips...

    I usually use the overall expenses I have for a product (product cost+shipping+tax/customs) and aim for at least 200% net profit of those. This allows me to theoretically order two more products per sold product which furthermore means I won't run into cashflow problems and consequential...

    Update: I'll keep it shorter this time: New product was chosen. Samples were ordered. Supplier got chosen and a total of 600pcs were ordered. Packages arrived on Nov. 23 and Nov. 24th (2 different suppliers) 50% of the products were not packaged, 10% were damaged. E-Mail exchanges with...

    He's using your CPU to mine Monero. Not really nice to be honest, especially linking people through this thread to do so. I'm not even sure if it's legal at all, but you can research it yourself. PirateBay and other "mainstream" websites used it as well and there was a big uproar once it...

    Hi Kim, thanks for the kind words. Regarding the product research there are heaps of information out there on what you should pay attention to by choosing the product. I personally made an excel sheet and wrote down my own criteria (in a strong style of what I've found online) and compared the...
