Haven’t read part 1 or part 2 yet? You’ll probably be confused.
Read them first.
This has been a fun!
It’s been a few weeks running an online business. I’ve spent money and earned money. Time to tally the results and see what I’ve got.
My monthly sales are $277. Fucking fantastic.
You might think that’s a bad result. Maybe you think that I should be earning more money. Maybe my money spent on building an email list stifles my profit margin. And you’re not wrong.
But here’s the important thing: The arrow is pointed in the right direction. That’s important because I went from making $0/month to $277/month. In addition to working 20 hours a week on the side. That’s not bad for a beginner.
In terms of physical product – I won’t reveal how much these flags cost to manufacture (for my business’ sake). But it’s a GREAT profit margin.
And what about pricing? $35 is a great price for a custom flag. Anyone who disagrees is misinformed.
Why am I writing this?
No clue.
I like to imagine using them as resources 30 years from now living in a California mansion smoking a blunt with my model wife.
Or at the very least – as a written affirmation. The truth is like a fog and I’m trying to navigate through it with better systems. Writing out the business process seems like a good idea.
Maybe only 20 email subscribers will read this.
Oh well. Hope you enjoy it!
