Here’s a good leadership test ~ explain to me how your business works and how it makes enough revenue to pay overheads!

You need to be at able to do that!

Dumb question why don’t you give them x y z use these improvements to capture more new subscribers ~ then raise the prices because you have x y z!

Seems like a no brainer!

Note NNN needs to be in Chinese (if you include any other languages you need that officially translated and notarized).

It needs to be notarized in the city/province of the vendor properly stamped and signed by the other party.

You don’t have to be personally there but you need to be represented ~ it can be personal to you or your company!

Hope this is helpful!

NNN (non-disclosure, non-use, and non-circumvention)

Honestly, international patents are not recognized in China!

You need a Chinese patent! Which fortunately are relatively cheap and fairly easy to do!

Another thing you could do is get a NNN done and notarized, I do that all the time!

And most of the vendors on alibaba are trading companies so you need to ensure your NNN is valid for this use!

Hope that helps!

Okay just the highlights…

90s ~ Started affiliate marketing ~ high 4 figures monthly revenue.

2000s ~ Moved to China started selling physical products ~ mid 5 figure monthly revenue.

2010s ~ Private Label platform/shopify sales ~ average mid 7 figures years.

2020s ~ COVID happened revenue obscenely good ~ year to date about mid 7 figures.

Ups and downs over the last few years with adjustments from platforms to platforms, algorithms adjustments the usual shit hit the fan!

But the constant is I’ve done it once I’ll do it again. At a certain point it’s not even a challenge!

Btw I’m 63 this year so old people can still get it up🤣

Good job OP, you deserve it! And hey if it all falls apart tmr you know you’ve done it once and yay can do it again!

Gosh knows I’ve rode that roller coaster myself more times than I can count!

My tiny Shopify store did 1.9 in 10 months and sold to my Chinese vendor for 2 cash!

I use it as a research resource!

Offer a discount on a pre sale when you run out! Salvage something it guess!

Well the first question everyone asks on shark tank is ~ what’s your revenue?

You probably get ~ I’m out you’re not there yet!

Real or just Click bait hustle porn does have some inspiration or idea value!

Even the really fake ones make you think… so I say watch in moderation but with a pinch of salt!

Doesn’t seem like there’s a downside even if you end up with a bunch of swords & knives as Christmas gifts to kids you don’t like!

At the very least you end up with market knowledge about em!

I’d say do it!

Good man, you can have all the tools but no business, but you can have all the business with no tools…

Weird but true, I just charge ahead and plug in what I need as I go, most folks just percolate like stale coffee!

By the time they have gathered enough confidence/info/tools/knowledge to do get off the fence, it’s not worth doing anymore!

The best all-in-one tool is common sense ~ everything else is just a place to organize ~ be it pen & paper or some paid thingy ~ also the internet which is not really free (you probably need to pay ether in coffee or a plan) but is such a low barrier I’d include it!

Just my 2 cents!

Everything else is bells and whistles…

I sell basic evergreen stuff online… nothing fancy.

Going to be honest I do six figure profit monthly, it’s basically work ~ not sitting by the pool with topless supermodels… I don’t have time to do social media much less teach someone I don’t know how to do it?

So just saying!

How about paring with someone more established and selling to your audience as an affiliate or doing an exchange program.
