Few layers to this.

1. With enough time, any scammers that purposely damage goods will be a few drops in the bucket. Once you have a large amount of followers that back you as being reputable they’ll drown out the outliers.

2. I can’t remember a time we ever said no to a replacement. Some people won’t stop. It’s often easier to just say “no worries, here’s your replacement” and eat the cost and send them on their way. We factor in a smalllll amount of returns for this reason. It’s the cost of doing business. If it were to ever happen a third time we wouldn’t refund them but it has never lead there before.

3. You never know, it could have been an accident. Don’t stress it.

4. if it was an influencer you sent out an item to, just means you have to better qualify who you work with

Doesn’t have to but if that’s his lifelong partner I guess he should be able to

Starting your own biz is a lonely road. Who better to drive 1000 miles with than your partner in the passenger seat

Very solid points. I will further the emphasis on not doing too many side projects at once. You’ll most often make far more being a master at 1 skill / niche than average or slightly above average at a dozen.

If you’re a hairdresser on the side don’t worry about waxing, nails, lashes, etc. if anything, work with someone that you can pass the leads on to for a kick-back commission. I see far too many people working a full time gig and have 4-5 side gigs and none of them take off.

Gonna check back in a few days and add a bunch of these to my list. Thanks guys 💚

This was mine too. The initial jump out of the birds nest is often the biggest part of it all. You can’t fail if you never even attempt to fly.

48 laws of power

Have you worked for free yet? If the answer is no that’s where I would start.

Reach out to influencers with a large following and ask them if you can make them a logo in exchange for an IG cross / shared post. You have to give in order to receive.

From there, you will hopefully get traffic to your page, they click your bio, and you get a few sales.

Lastly, have you tried searching for leads on Reddit like this?

All have extremely high levels of opportunities (especially in cybersecurity as the world goes more digital) in the future, but all are extremely difficult to get established in. I’m in neither of them but best of luck 🙏💚

Teachable, thinkific and the like if you just want an easy quick way.

I prefer a dedicated site with a locked members only area. This way, you can have full control and other tabs and upsell. Example, eventually you can sell your own ties or have affiliate links to clothing shops, skin care items, or colognes.

Scent of the month! This month I tested 15 colognes. Gentlemen, the Armani X is the top choice and is a must have. They click on the link, some people buy, and you earn your commission.

So their bosses (owners of company) who make several times more than them aren’t doing real work? Yup, totally makes sense 😅😂

I don’t. It’s nearly 5am and I’m up researching business and checking Reddit. I should be asleep.

Link your site. Hoping it isn’t just a generic copy and paste drop-shipping site. You must add value
