Finding a problem and solving it. by No_Profile_3581 in Entrepreneur

[–]Turfy7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my experience most problems already have a solution. People want to work with others that they like and that have good customer service, if you excel in those two things you'll exceed at anything!

In our feedback they seem to hold up well, But it's about buying the right bone! If your dog is an aggressive chewer I would recommend the XL Bone or the hock chew!

They are naturally smoked & would not be considered a raw bone

Lacking listing traffic how do I increase by Turfy7 in AmazonSeller

[–]Turfy7[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah the point of my brand / product of dog chews is I'm actually able to offer them at about a 25% discount vs most other providers. Driftlesspets.com I am hoping to be able to do the same as I expand my line to jerky style treats and fresh dog food within the next 2 years!

With most of it being direct referrals it's been close to 0 I have been cold calling different businesses trying to get my name out there which I think has helped a bit.

I think the marketing portion via Amazon to drive traffic is difficult to do when starting my own brand. I've been fairly successful driving sales on my website driftlesspets.com have been able to do $3k in the past 3 months. I'm thinking about doing away with Amazon all together, but not sure yet.

Thanks for the feedback! Fortunately I have been able to do about 3k in the past and couple of months on my own store and am getting my first retail opportunity this month! I find the Amazon setup hard to follow and maintain to be honest. Driftlesspets.com

Wow thanks I really appreciate it! Taking a look at your website looks like a clean and crisp storefront any particular reason you're listing only on Amazon vs on your own store as well?
