What's up people. Recently, I became part of this awesome forum when searching the internet for ideas and tips to start my own e-commerce store and depart from the rigors of the B&M model. Much of the advice on this forum is solid and I wanted to say thanks for sharing.
Let's get this thing rolling!
First off, I will be turning 40 this year and for much of my adult life, I have either been partner or owned a business and for the most part, I understand how to run a business. Granted a few of my businesses were moderately successful but several have failed miserably which brings me to this point in my life.
My current business (construction) is on life support and I am at the point of just abandoning construction almost entirely. I have always wanted to create an substantial income via the internet whether its through some type of marketing or e commerce store. Now I'm at the point it's either shit or get off the pot.
I have dabbled in internet marketing for several years and have managed to make a few grand and that was when I became ingrained with the notion that money can be made on line. But my biggest obstacle was shiny object syndrome or going balls to the wall for a month or two and give up when I didn't see the results I wanted. So now I must buckle down and get this business into profit mode.
My focus and attention will be on setting up an Amazon account and begin selling products via FBA and then transitioning into a full e-commerce store within the next 18 months. I am setting a goal of making at least $3500.00 per month by the end of the year and to increase the revenue by 2 times each quarter (i.e. 3500 in six months 7000 in nine months 10500 in 12 months and so on and so forth).
I will do my best to give continual updates but sometimes certain things will carry precedence.
