I've gotten a lot of people telling me I should try selling my flavors of juices -- do you think its too competitive? Selling hardware is not a profit-maker online for sure -- I have seen the intense competition on here for prices, availibilty, etc., and I don't think I want that headache -- can you make money at juices?
Not really.
There is small profit to be made but you won't be able to live on it.
There are many unexpected charges when trying to sell liquid vs. diy.
I am expecting a small tax return because I am probably close to breaking even.
It depends on the quality of the product you sell.
Buying knockoffs for a much less price so you can resell them seems ok at first, but then when you get a billion returns because the quality is terrible you may realize it is better to pay more and get the better product.
For example 1 said item may cost $80 if you buy 1-99 of them.
But if you hit the 100 mark on an order for that item, you could get the items for much less.
Buying good quality in bulk is the way to go.
The problem is having $3500 or more to order the bulk package so you CAN make a profit.
And if you do that there is a huge chance it would get stopped at customs.
I am actually surprised we even made it this far.
It takes money to make money, and if you don't have a lot of it, the only thing you will be doing is helping others.
Which is why I am still in this anyway.
It really isn't THAT difficult to run an online store.
You just need time, patience and lots of money.
I've been vaping since October 2009.
In December I decided to open up an online store.
It took months just to get up and running.
Around March 2010 we finally were able to launch the website.
It has been almost a year now and I do not regret it.
Feels good helping other people.
I am fortunate though that my other half is able to take care of the bills on the home front.
What I do myself does not pay the bills. But from time to time we can take the profit and go out to eat and a nice restaurant or I can afford to have a juice giveaway.
It really has to be something you want to do for others unless you are rich to begin with.
If you are then this would definitely a good way to pay some bills.
