I’ve posted about it before, but since it’s being asked again:
It’s not “tech” and it’s refreshing to build something from scratch that’s very tangible. I want to walk away from data science and create something that allows me to open a store selling lifestyle products for men one day. To this end, I launched a men’s skincare line about 3 months ago (https://www.mendskin.co https://www.mendskin.co) which isn’t “successful” yet, but it’s my first experience selling physical goods and I think these things take time. Right now, I spend about 10 hours per week on Ads, customer service, and fulfillment. So, it’s kinda passive.
“Beauty products” (for lack of a better term) definitely require heavy capital, and it’s becoming hard to do everything by myself. All the individual things that need to be done aren’t hard- it’s just that there’s so much to do in order to deliver successful physical products.
But I enjoy it.
- thecupisblue 7y agoWow! I'd love to read a blog about this and the whole process, any hope for something like that?
- treyfitty 7y agoDefinitely... I just didn’t think people would be interested :) I have an interview with a publication coming up. After that publishes, I’ll post a link and talk about things in much more detail.
