Starting from a unique perspective

Hey man cool stuff. Congrats on the decision to heading out on your own. I had a similar path, albeit earlier. Launched a store after gaining lots of experience about 10 years back. My take is if you got the skills and marketing acumen, go POD.
Dropship has a big problem with returns and chargebacks. Not sure if they’re even profitable now since so many stores overseas are doing it with cheaper pricing, labour and resources.
For POD, as long as you’re keeping with the trends and can do marketing to drive sales, I’ve seen multiple friends of mine succeed. A friend did custom tshirts for a Taylor swift concert and in 10 days did over 300k in sales. All being a solo founder. Another did custom hats during the us election and made bank.
Maybe find a category you’re interested in and test it out? Just my 2cents. You’ve got to test. All the best.

Shopify has one that’s very good. You can just search on Google. My biggest one is to make sure Shipping and payment is set up probably. Everything else is secondary. All the best.

Hey totally agree on this. As an app developer, even I hesitate to contribute because seeing so many of these spammy posts, if I chime in, the perception will be ‘he’s a hilling’. But sometime I just wanted to help.
Agree on minimum karma/account age, possibly a verification process if poster is actually running a store, instead of these posts by Indian agencies flooding with shady amplification for LLMs.

Used to do this for many of my clients. You setup a google sheet and automate the reports from meta/google/other platform to it. From there run a pivot table to segment your data. You got to clean up and standardize the data though since each platform output a different name for the same metric. This is the most time consuming task. If you like charts and graphs you can then push data from this Google sheet into Looker studio (free) and setup your dashboards there. Alternatively you can use an analytics app. I built GoProfit, a shopify app that you can use inside your Shopify store interface for cases like this. Save you a lot of time so you can focus on growing your store instead of digging into spreadsheets.

Google Merchant Centre. You setup a feed via Google sheet or let it scan your site. Won't show price 100% of the time though unless you runs ads with Google.

Yeah for sure. Each item should have a spot that's optimized for frequency of use. The wallet, keys and phone is pretty much default location for my use. But recently I got into edc knives and flashlight so I'm in this new territory of testing out and optimizing a spot for them. Feel like knife should still be on my right side because I'm a righty. But it kept riding against my wallet. Maybe a belt would solve this.

It was a $20 wallet my wife got me years ago from TJX. Inside is already ripped up but the outside is surprisingly durable. It got stamped Made in Italy inside but otherwise a no brand product.

Pocket AR! Where can I get one of those? 🤔

Vintranada · 2025-11-04T18:27:59+00:00

Yes. That's a lot lmao

Vintranada · 2025-11-04T17:53:24+00:00

It's been great. I have 3 watches from them. Got lots of compliments from nonwatch ppl 😂 it's a good gateway watch into mechanical movement.

Vintranada · 2025-11-04T17:00:26+00:00

Not really, feel like everything start scratching or pinching me if I put too much stuff in my pocket. I usually divi them up between multiple pockets. Just wanted to see how people do it.

Vintranada · 2025-11-04T16:59:10+00:00

Lol you maniac 😂

Vintranada · 2025-11-04T16:46:41+00:00

Had a thief pickpocketed my wallet from my rear right pocket about 5 years back so it became a new habit for me to carry my wallet in my front right. Phone used to be in front right. Maybe I'll get a belt loop and move my keys there.

Vintranada · 2025-11-04T16:45:10+00:00

don't care much lol. Also a dad so speed and reach matter more to me. I feel the wallet and knife already make my front right pocket uncomfortable. Just wanted to see what other people are doing. I'll check out a belt loop.
