GOLD! Lex's Digital/Physical Product Group Accountability Thread

[Lex DeVille]

I have a question, are you selling with inserts/leaflets etc? Only asking as I’m about to launch and wondering if it’s even worth doing that at this point without know if the product will work or no. Would be an extra $100 for inserts

I don't understand what you are asking. Are you talking about some kind of insert that goes in the product when you ship it?

Mid-Month August
Things are going reasonably well this month. Sales are up from this time last month. Just crossed the halfway point and I'm just shy of $1500 which puts me on track for close to $3k if sales hold. So far, my website is the primary earner this month, followed by ebay.

Google Ads
I turned off Google ads. Costs were increasing, but I wasn't seeing sales. So in addition to sales being up, my expenses will be down by about $700 in ad spend. I'll probably start ads up again by October, but don't really need them right now.

Price Points
I tested a couple of products at the $99 price point this month. Both items sold. Going forward, I'm working a limited number of $99 items into my listings. I'll probably list 1 - 2 of these per week. Nothing is different about the items compared with the $49 items except the price. It's weird what people will buy.

Inventory
I'm starting to run low on my best pallet auction jewelry. I've still got a lot of jewelry that can be sold, but it doesn't exactly fit the brand. I'll still try to sell it, but I need to start sourcing jewelry soon so I have plenty for the upcoming holiday season.

FB Ads
I haven't started any FB ads, but they're in the back of my mind for the holiday season. In the past, I've bought Christmas gifts through sites I came across from FB ads.

Courses
I mapped out a course for my audience. I want to charge $397 - $497 for it. Just need to find the time to create the content. It doesn't have to be anything flashy. Most of it doesn't even need to be talking head. I don't know how much interest there will be, and my email list is still pretty small, but even one to two sales per month would add a good chunk of cash to my bottom line.
