    P212121 Store: Progress Thread

    EXECUTION 
    Thanks for the feedback on the logo, design isn't really my thing, but am trying to get better. I'm targeting a scientific niche so unless you do crystallography, P212121 won't mean much (people have now just been calling it P21).

    Narrower or broader? =\

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Narrower for the first book and see how it does... The marketing would be simpler. I am assuming that you don't already have a big audience. The material is going to need to stand out and by narrowing the topic you have reduced the competition. In turn you have reduced your audience...

My store launched a year ago and have the goal of going at it full time in September when I'm done with school. I also was really focused on learning programming at first since I thought if could...

    Anyone used Facebook Ads before?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    About Page: Trust - 30 years of experience Capable - serving individuals to large clients (can you say fortune 500? - instead of large - etc) Available - utilizing Skype our services are just a click away (in general people skim on the net not read)

    Anyone used Facebook Ads before?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I have been trying to keep up with Biophase on the ecommerce front (bedtime ~2 am for the past couple of months). We can't have everyone wearing ghillie suits and laying around on yoga mats.

    Anyone used Facebook Ads before?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    If I were running these ads. I would A/B test only a single variable such as either the picture or the ad copy. If the 'hair pulling ad' has a better conversion was it do to the picture or the copy? Only way to know is to repeat the A/B test

    Need advice...

    I don't know your situation that well so this maybe a drastic idea, but have you considered moving? I am under the impression that there is not that many lots and you need more motivated people. Is there an area that has 2000-3000 lots? perhaps it could result in 30-40 offers...

    Finding suppliers from another country

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I don't mean to interrupt, but I wouldn't spend my savings on this idea (yet). I would get the person that confirmed your cousins price on these items to send you 10 (or whatever number makes since based on shipping, your finances, etc). I would set up an ecommerce site for 3 months and see if...
