    Manufacturing question

    This is a great question which I hope somebody with experience is able to chime in on as personally, outside of the expense and time ramifications of patenting a product if it really is unique in design, I'm not really sure how much legal protection you can actually have. Obviously your choice...

    From Affiliate Marketing To Importing And Ecommerce

    MARKETING 
    Super cool thread. It's impressive you're getting $100+ sales from cold traffic. Are you going from page post > hard sell landing page > offer on Shopify? I imagine the product must really have some kind of story behind it or really solve a pain? Can you reveal anymore about your flow...

    Be Importer, UPS and Amazon FBA

    It seems like you're going through a process which I am also confused of myself right now. What was the actual value of your goods that UPS told you they needed a bond? Were you given documents for the bond? I thought the idea of a bond was it was attached to your company and not the carrier...

    Formal vs. Informal Entry / Customs Bonds

    Thanks for that insight Walter. If UPS for whatever reason did not want to process the shipment at that value what would be the process? Would they just add on more fees or require you to somehow register with them as I saw mentioned in another thread? Is there actually a limit whereby a...

    Formal vs. Informal Entry / Customs Bonds

    It's my first time sending product to the USA and I'm a little bit confused regarding formal vs. informal entry. From what I understand, a total goods value of $2500 is the marker by which your customs entry moves from informal to formal so there's a lot of advice out there saying for quicker...

    Hello from Bali ;)

    INTRO 
    Hey Lesly. Welcome! :) I just got back from a month in Bali at the end of 2015. I love being by the beach. I'm starting to explore options at the moment with a move away from Chiang Mai where I've been based for far too long. Sorry to derail the thread but any chance you could break down the...

    $5000 to $30,000 per month - eCommerce Progress

    EXECUTION 
    Congrats on your success so far! I don't know what actual profit margin you're working to but your listed figures seem pretty tasty considering what you've said about it being pretty much all organic traffic to your own site rather than pushing through the likes of Amazon and eBay. Without...

    I've Read The Millionaire Fastlane!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    Read it. Put a lot of stuff into perspective and is one of the best books I've absorbed. I continually recommend it. ;)

    Landing Page Teardown Thread

    HOT! 
    You're wasting too much time on this. Your landing page still looks amateur. You've made changes but they are not significant enough to expect a significant uptick in CTR or CR. Go here: https://www.leadpages.net/the-ultimate-list-of-free-landing-page-templates Download 3 of those free...

    Landing Page Teardown Thread

    HOT! 
    When you split-test landing pages you should be comparing completely different concepts / styles to identify what works best with your audience until you find a winner. At this stage, split-testing button colours is too granular. I'm afraid I'm going to have to agree with a previous comment...

    Anyone used a Affiliate marketing company?

    MARKETING 
    I don't have much experience with affiliation to e-commerce platforms but I'll do my best to answer your questions. Note: my experience is from the point of an affiliate rather than an advertiser but I feel I've seen enough of the business to cover a lot of this. There's no real average. It...

    Best Paid Traffic Sites?

    MARKETING 
    What are you trying to achieve? If you're responding to a pain, problem or product that people would be specifically searching for then you should look at Google Adwords. If you're trying to appeal to a specific demographic of person or plant an idea then targeting doesn't get any better than...

    What laptop have you got?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I've got a 15" 2010 MacBook Pro. I can't actually believe it's 5 years old. I actually never turn the thing off. It's practically been running for that whole time too! I only power it off (as opposed to shutting the lid or triggering sleep mode) when I know I'll be away from it for a long time...

    Becoming a millionaire has never been so easy in just 90 days

    HOT! 
    I'm a bit late to the party here but this is absolutely right. This system is all over native ads right now. That's proof enough that it's working - nearly 6 months on from when it was discussed here - people are still throwing money at the content networks advertising it. This one too! Still...
