Heya !
I posted almost 1 year ago about starting an ecom biz. Long story short, the first one failed, the 2nd one (dropshipping) is still running to that day without putting much effort into it. It generated some profit. I used ~$1500 personally and I keep what's left to invest later into new projects (into this one). Most of the profit has been eaten by an email marketing agency (lol) I was paying $3000/month
Not necessarily a huge ROTS (Return on time spent), but with more than 15k emails and consistent sales without working on it, that's an asset I could sell later.
Background:
Everything
In the meantime, I left my place, 95% of my stuff, my 2 years girlfriend, stopped working with one of my biggest clients that were annoying me (+ draining my energy), and moved to the opposite side of the world (France to Mexico) with a suitcase and a backpack.
Radical change, it was 1 month and a half ago, I feel like it's been 6 already. Damn.
I currently live from my freelancing revenues, and I want to try to stop depending on my time input to earn money. Might give more details about my background later, but as stated in my last post, I'm not starting from scratch, I have now +3 years of experience in eCommerce, marketing & FB ads.
Anyway, now, I want to try to create my own product. I'm making this post for accountability, and to keep a track of my progress.
Not going to disclose the product here, at least until launch or if it fails.
Here is the global plan:
Let's start !
P.S. I'll try to check at least once every few days to answer questions if there is any.

Here is the global plan:
- Market Analysis (finding ideas and making a hypothesis about the audience)
- Audience research (finding specific segment that could be interested)
- Funnel & automation setup (Lead capture page with email sequences)
- Pre-launch lead capture using ads
- Launch (Crowdfunding)
- Scaling if success
Let's start !
