Hi guys,
I have always been a part time entrepreneur, but I can't take the wage slave life anymore so I paid off my mortgage and quit my job as financial analyst in the electronics parts distribution industry.
I have 4 years Air Force meteorology experience, BBA, MBA, worked 1.5 years at a hedge fund and 1.5 years in the electronic parts job.
During my corporate grind, I've started a hobby of restoring mid century record consoles. My Instagram has grown to 11k followers, however it's not something that I can do passively. Right now I can spend about 4 hours on a unit with a COGS of $200 and a sale price of $1200-$1400. I have a small client base off my instagram and recently local interior design firms.
How do I go about transitioning this into selling products that I dont have to touch or restore. I was thinking carving out a niche in turntables and amplifiers online, but I'm not very savy with E-commerce yet.
