    Hmmm, never heard of them before this but it's an interesting concept. Going to do some more digging, thank you!

    Rent out my mailing list?

    MARKETING 
    Renting it out to a brokerage that rents mailing lists to other vendors. I guess I am having a bit of a "duh" moment here on the legality of it, I know this is common in standard mail but I guess it makes sense given the e-mail privacy laws.

    Rent out my mailing list?

    MARKETING 
    I own a successful e-commerce company since 2010, we have a mailing list with tens of thousands of customers for our hobby industry. I've been surprised to see not too much info on renting your mailing list out online, plenty on how to rent one yourself but not rent out. I'd like to rent as...

    I had a meeting with a consultant that I have known for some time yesterday, a good friend of mine is in a CEO peer group this gentleman heads and he's got a great background and network in the industry. I've really been leaning towards keeping the business for now, and after some brainstorming...

    You make a very good point and I do get it, believe me this is something I think about often. I'll often ask myself the old "what would I do for the business with 100K right now" and do not have a very good answer. The short and easy answer is to go deeper on inventory, we source everything...

    Thank you for that. Since we are on the subject, do you or anybody have any recommendations for online business brokers? I've been working with one company but am not happy with the vibe I'm getting, I get the impression they are used to selling a larger volume of smaller businesses without...

    Thank you! I would say that yes, right now is deciding whether or not to sell. I'm at a crossroads, I can keep investing in my current business and start expanding into other ventures within the business, or cash-out and try an entirely different set of ideas. I'm thinking about building...

    Sorry guys, not trying to create any friction. Still very new to this forum so I hope you guys can understand me holding my cards close for a bit here. When I started my business I was always worried that others were going to do what we do and blow us out of the water, even though there were...

    tips on how to overcome shyness

    HOT! MINDSET 
    New to this forum and just came across this thread and figured I'd throw in a quick .02. I don't know how similar my situation is, but I too am a very shy and introverted person. I've had jobs that forced me to put myself in situations where I had no choice but get over it and those experiences...

    I apologize but for now I'm choosing to not divulge our business identity, I can tell you we run a Magento-based multi-store platform with a retail, wholesale and manufacturing presence.

    Thank you! We do ship to the UK but not a tremendous amount, 90% + of our business is within the US but we do ship to many other countries. We do a lot to Canada, Australia and Israel.

    Thank you very much :) I actually had a conversation with a business owner who has a warehouse next to ours earlier this morning, and it's amazing how a guy with an 8M/year business has absolutely how to get his products on Amazon. The setup he uses is so antiquated, so it actually made me...

    Hi All!! I can't believe I had not found this forum yet but here I am. I have felt so "lonely" in our work for so many years and have spent many hours reading through threads here, so cool to find people that speak my language! I started my ecommerce business back in 2010 while working my...
