Greetings Fastlaners,
It has been a while since ive been on the forum and after reading through some articles I realised how much value I had been missing over the last little while.
For the last several months I had forgotten about my fastlane dreams and aspirations, with a heavy work load and a growing family, life didn't seem to bad in the slowlane...
That is until,
It was a dark and rainy night and I found myself perusing the internet for a gadget that had been on my mind for quite some time, it was time to make that purchase .. but then as I searched and I searched all these products seemed so expensive, sure there was a market for them but for what seemed like a astronomical mark up I couldn't make that commitment.
A few days later I had found Mjs book and started re reading it... Be a producer not a consumer.. Those words going through my head the next few days, Subconsciously I started re reading Walter Hays PDF book it was then I decided I wouldn't pay those outrageous prices.
I started communicating with a few different companies from China, I had thought to myself ill purchase a small sample keep 1 or 2 for myself and unload the rest on friends and family to break even.
Fast forward 3 weeks...
I am back on TMF
My business name is in the process of licensing
The product I had ordered was of good quality but could have used some eye appeal, I am working with a designer and the manufactuer to make this happen,
Website - Check
Amazon FBA - Check
Buisness Email - Check
I am not a super smart person by any means, i am constantly referencing back to @Walter Hay Proven China Sourcing and The forum for advice and figuring out what the hell i am doing. ( What happened to the creating your own brand thread ? )
The Point of all this is just to START, start anything, make the smallest purchase they will allow and sell it on the street to get that first sale, once you find a product that adds value it will sell itself.
Still a slowlaner but a few steps closer to being a fastlaner.
