Friends And Family Copy Your Products or Ask For Help? | Ep. #68 - Q&A Selling Online - From Amazon FBA to Shopify, Digital Marketing and Facebook Ads
Summary: Do Friends or Family Copy Your Private Label Products?<br> Welcome to this Podcast about Private Label products<br> Today I launched my second book.<br> In addition, this is a beautiful time to be selling online.<br> It’s almost the end of 4th quarter and everyone is buying everything they can last minute.<br> Today’s episode is a sort of a rant.<br> Family and Friends attempt to copy what I do and copy my products instead of asking for help.<br> I help people every single day start businesses and how to sell online on Amazon, Shopify and even how to create private label products<br> Every single person I have trained, I have done so for free!<br> So, why wouldn’t my family ask for help, or at least ask me some questions?<br> Every single one of my products that are stacked on a shelf in the house, is part of my loser account.<br> If you are going to copy, DO NOT copy the loser products!<br> Of course, I do not reveal my winning products on the podcast or on the FB groups, but I will certainly let everyone know what products to sell, and what not to sell.<br> I will even go as far as selecting the products to make sure your first one is a home run<br> I know if the first product is not a winner, most people will feel disappointed and may even quit<br> So, I will pick the product for my family and friends (have done it before)<br> This week a family member, let me know that they were selling a “coffee just like yours”<br> Well… that is a loser!!!<br> DO NOT start your private label journey with a food product!<br> DO NOT create your first private label to compete with, Oil Companies, Gold, Coffee companies, or in the weight loss category!<br> If you have to do one of the above, do it, but not when you are starting, because you will either get crushed or sent to jail.<br> Yes, private labelling food products without the required safety, rules and regulations can send you to Jail.<br> Now, he has almost $5,000 in the garbage and wants to create a yoga mat private label, because he saw on youtube it was a hot item!<br> Should I stop him from killing more money into a (insert F word here) yoga mat?<br> <br> Guys and girls, let me tell you something from the bottom of my heart:<br> If you have limited funds, please do not rush into spending it on the wrong thing<br> Find someone that knows even a tinny bit more than you about it, and talk talk, talk.<br> Ask them everything you can think of, and when you think you got all the information from him/her, now find another person that knows just a bit more, and repeat!<br> DO NOT, try to learn everything by yourself. It is possible and even may be a good experience, but it will waste your money, and lots of your time.<br> <br> Rant Over<br> Please listen to episode 32, <a href="http://qasellingonline.com/un-edited-podcast-episodes-edited-ep-32/">about the episodes that were too edited</a><br> <br>
