Hi Everyone
I recently joined the forum and been reading a lot. This is the best thing that happened to me since I lost my Virginity !
I just read a thread that @AgainstAllOdds was posting here about selling T-shirts online using his own designs.
Well i thought i will give it a go. So I partnered with my friend who has amazing designs and decided to target a very unique niche (well at least I think it is unique).
We want to sell shirts for people who love video games and gym. We are sort of the same type of guys and many of our friends are extremely obsessed with both so we thought there is a market for this.
A bit about me:
I am living in the UK -I am an immigrant from Hungary- for 11 years now.
I work as a recruitment Consultant for a company that pays me far less for my services. I am 29 years young and I want to be a true fastlaner and possibly a millionaire by the age of 35.I love capoeira videogames and married with one lovely little baby daughter.
Here is the problem:
I started this little campaign 4 days ago from
scratch. facebook page has 44 likes and no organic traffic from ads.
My questions are:
Your help and support is much appreciated. Call me an A$$ for doing or not doing something I don't mind. I need some guidance from you guys. Please let me know your thoughts.
Thank you so much.

Here is the problem:
- I set up a facebook page for the niche and invited all friends and family. Posting frequently about videogames, cosplay, bodybuilding, tricking, martial arts, etc.
- I started an instagram account. Mainly posting sexy fitness girls, cosplay, and martial arts related content along with video game related memes. Maybe I overloaded the sexy ladies part
- As a tryout I set up a page promotion on facebook with a daily budget of £1 a day and targeted people who love fitness and video games in the London area +40 miles radius
- Went mad on the like and follow buttons in related users and hashtags currently topping 92 followers and 207 followings and some likes on pictures
I started this little campaign 4 days ago from
scratch. facebook page has 44 likes and no organic traffic from ads.
My questions are:
- I wanted to launch the shopify store this weekend (its Wednesday). Shall I build an audience first?
- Shall I put more effort and of course funds into Facebook advertising or Instagram followers?
- Did I chose the wrong niche?

Thank you so much.
