I’ve been in business since July 2023, I feel like I have tried everything to get my business sales and make a name for itself and nothing is working. I get maybe one sale a month. While I am running ads, posting consistently, and reaching out for reviews. I worry it’s not going to make it and I am so over it.
May I ask what made you start this business?
Don’t give up. I started my business in march of 2020 and I only got one sale a month for about 8 months. Businesses take 3-4 years to even start profiting because of start up costs and reinvestments, most of the time even longer when trying to scale. It took my business almost 4 years of learning to grow and get consistent sales.
Its been 4 months business take time to get going.
It’s been just nearly 6 months and you want to give up? That doesn’t sound right. Looks like you have all the cards needed for success. Do you know what’s your ICP? How many people do you have in that Discord?
You mentioned a couple of times cutting your losses but then described your business model as drop shipping customized items from printify. How big would your losses be? What is your main method of advertising? How are people finding you? If you’re trying to drive people to your website, how good is your website?
When is the last time you bought a t shirt or mug from a small business?
Three months? Throw in the towel. You suck and your business sucks. Why even try any longer?
It takes ten years to be an overnight success and you’ve already done 2.5% of that. Give up now!
Interesting. I read your comments here and the only thing I believe you’re absolutely messed up on is your social media marketing. Now, to ask you a simple question, what is your most valuable strategy to market your product to the general public through your online presence?
Don’t tell me you’re posting edits and etc on Instagram tiktok etc and just putting money into ads. That’s hands down the worst way to do business if you’re someone who’s just starting. To be real with you, unless you can spend 1k at min on ads, you’ll most likely get close to nothing in return as profits. Now I would love to help you, but I need to see your work first, leave me a dm or email me on mentorakrish@gmail.com and I will reach out to you with help.
You created a topic and no details.
I’m sorry it’s this tough
So printify makes the product and you are the middle man? And you are selling on the web? Tough to get noticed, tough to make money as they can go to the cheapest site.
Print on demand? Like a million other people are doing? This niche became over saturated like 3 years ago. Do you not have any better idea for a company? That’s why you’re not making sales.
