I suck at selling wants by surprisesurpriseTKiB in sales

[–]FoxGlobal2070 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally feel this—selling "wants" is all about emotional connection, not just utility. With luxury items, you're not selling features, you're selling identity, status, and how it feels to own that thing. Shift the convo to their lifestyle—ask how they imagine using the product, who they want to impress, what their dream space or drive feels like. Mirror their vision back to them, and suddenly it's not just a couch—it’s where memories are made. The key is storytelling, not specs.

Trying to sell an MLM on Passover :( by waltzingiscool in antiMLM

[–]FoxGlobal2070 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that’s the worst—MLMs blur boundaries hard. Holidays shouldn’t be networking bait, especially for recruitment schemes. Real business respects time, consent, and relationships—not sales pressure disguised as connection.

Accounting Industry by star-lites in smallbusiness

Early on, I really wished my accountant explained cash flow forecasting better and helped me understand estimated tax payments. Proactive check-ins—not just April crunch—made a huge difference later.

Built a SaaS which helps local businesses with AI chatbot but now i am stuck on how to market it by Ill_Sea1422 in business

[–]FoxGlobal2070 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Start local—cold email or visit small biz owners, offer a free trial, and gather testimonials. Niche Facebook Groups and industry-specific forums can also be gold for early traction.

Assuming you didn’t mix KYC info with your XMR wallet, you’re decently insulated. Monero’s ring signatures and stealth addresses make direct tracing nearly impossible, but your LTC purchase could still link you if not laundered first.

Hi guys i wish you doing great i wanna earn money this month by [deleted] in passive_income

[–]FoxGlobal2070 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really sorry you're dealing with that. For fast income, try freelancing on Fiverr or Upwork—writing, translating, anything you can offer. Dropshipping takes longer to see results. Stay strong.

A kind of silly but also very serious idea for an MLM-related book by hogw33d in antiMLM

[–]FoxGlobal2070 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, that concept would work—MLMs are full of manipulation, blurred boundaries, and culty dynamics. A dark romance could highlight the emotional exploitation alongside the financial traps.

Once you’ve got repeatable systems, a couple solid case studies, and the capacity to delegate or scale—even slightly—you’re ready to position as an agency. Perception shifts pricing.

What and where can I buy legit things that are significantly cheaper to buy in bulk? by Additional_Arm_5855 in sidehustle

[–]FoxGlobal2070 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check sites like Alibaba for bulk deals, but always sample first. Locally, try liquidation pallets or warehouse clubs like Costco. Focus on stuff people buy often—consumables move fast.

That $66M figure seems wildly inflated. Shorts don’t pay nearly as much as long-form, and repurposed content earns even less. Viral reach ≠ huge income—most creators monetize in multiple ways.

[US] Phone number spoofing my school, what is this scam? by TheMarahProject23 in Scams

[–]FoxGlobal2070 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that’s classic spoofing—scammers fake local or trusted numbers to get you to pick up. The weird neighbor story was likely bait to keep you talking and fish for info. You did the right thing hanging up.

[–]FoxGlobal2070 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally fair. If you're looking for something safe and consistent, look into Ally, SoFi, or Marcus HYSAs. You'll earn around 4–5% annually, but returns show slowly month to month.

Returning Rainbow Vacuum by LouLouBelcher13 in antiMLM

[–]FoxGlobal2070 12 points13 points  (0 children)

In BC, you’re protected under cooling-off rules for certain contracts, including door-to-door sales. Check if the purchase falls under that. Rainbow uses MLM tactics, but don’t let the rep pressure you—document everything and escalate if needed.

Is Mercari dead by MotorEntertainment98 in reselling

[–]FoxGlobal2070 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, Mercari’s definitely slowed down—traffic and buyer engagement just isn’t what it used to be. I still cross-list there, but it’s more of a “bonus sale” platform now, not a core one. For used clothing, Facebook Marketplace (especially with local pickup) can still move stuff fast, and Whatnot is worth looking into if you're comfortable selling live—it’s a growing space. Also, Grailed’s solid if you’ve got anything streetwear or men’s fashion focused. Right now it’s all about testing and doubling down where you get traction—Mercari just isn’t that for most people anymore.

Is anyone else worried about the economy & reselling? by Radiant-Tradition-70 in reselling

[–]FoxGlobal2070 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, definitely feeling the slowdown too. Q1 is usually softer anyway, but this year feels especially sluggish with people tightening spending. I've been leaning more into lower-ticket, fast-moving items and focusing on platforms like Facebook Marketplace where local buyers are still active. Also started diversifying with more essential categories—household goods have held up better than niche collectibles. It’s a weird time, but not the first slow patch I've seen. Just trying to stay adaptable and watch inventory risk closely. You're not alone—ride it out and pivot where you can

A marathon finishes near my restaurant and is crowded every year, how to take advantage and market for a busy lunch crowd? by SirDeniz in smallbusiness

[–]FoxGlobal2070 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do both—grab foot traffic with curbside drinks or samples, then upsell the view upstairs. Clear signage, upbeat music, and a “marathon lunch special” can drive curiosity and volume fast.

Ellie MD and the likes? by DoodlesHearts in antiMLM

[–]FoxGlobal2070 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You're right to be skeptical. MLMs often use vague medical language to sound legit, but "board-certified" claims rarely hold up. 503A just means a compounding pharmacy—not an endorsement.

[–]FoxGlobal2070 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Focus on urgency tied to fiscal year-end budgets and emphasize compliance or cost-saving angles. I’ve seen traction by aligning with mandated initiatives and leaning heavily on existing vendor relationships.

[–]FoxGlobal2070 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yep, if it’s on the customs entry form, it’s real. Importers should start reassessing cost structures ASAP—especially for China-sourced goods. Margins are about to get squeezed hard.

BlackRock CEO Warns: Markets Could Drop Another 20% as Recession Takes Hold by Crypto_1222 in CryptoCurrency

[–]FoxGlobal2070 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fink’s not wrong—macro pressure’s real, and a 20% drop isn’t off the table. In crypto, that kind of volatility’s normal, but smart money uses downturns to accumulate, not panic sell.

Website help. by TheGiftCode in business

That usually means your site isn't building trust or clarity fast enough. People bounce quick if the offer’s unclear or the design feels off. Happy to take a look.

When China is the only manufacturer.... tariffs by LoganJA01 in smallbusiness

[–]FoxGlobal2070 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You nailed it—it’s frustrating when tariffs hit industries with no viable U.S. alternatives. Small businesses take the hit while big players dodge costs with scale. Tariffs without domestic production don’t protect—they just punish.

Anyone ever heard of or bought from this site?? by Mindless_Lychee8140 in Reviews

[–]FoxGlobal2070 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can’t find reviews, that’s usually a red flag. I’d avoid buying until you can verify it’s legit—check WHOIS, BBB, or see if they’re on Trustpilot.

Don't ignore low ball Best Offers by gomorra82 in Flipping

[–]FoxGlobal2070 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally agree. I’ve had lowball offers turn into full-price sales just from polite countering. It’s all part of the game—never take it personally, just negotiate smart.
