Sell something online.
I have spent more than 20 years working on side hustles. I love tech and enjoyed building various prototypes and games. Building is easy part.
Never fully understood rest of the business, had no sales.
A friend who had done same thing, decided to stop doing that. Instead he started an e-commerce store. Focused on market research, marketing, etc. After his first store took off, he created more stores. He doesn’t care about what he sells, he just cares about revenue.
He is making enough to quit his EM job. He plans to keep adding new stores in his portfolio.
- high_pathetic 2y agoIn other words, dropshipping?
- anon743448 2y agoIn his case, he holds inventory for his successful stores. He is also big on branding. For example, one of his business is selling plants and the custom made boxes for shipping cost more than plants. he did mention drop shipping to test out ideas but don’t think any of those businesses took off.
- mmarian 2y agoGood idea. I had thought about that in the past, but I was reluctant because there are few e-commerce products where I wish I could buy something better. I'm someone who thinks (too) hard before spending any money. I'll revisit that. Thanks!
