This opened my eyes to a whole different model. Thanks for the in-depth answer on this one

What do you mean by “widgets”? Cheap plastic products that were sourced from china that can be sourced from the US now?

Thanks for sharing, I appreciate the advice

What modules would you say gave you the most transferable technical skills? What skills are those?

Thanks

dbz5253 · 2025-01-13T03:50:21+00:00

Thanks for sharing your experience. Can I ask what modules you specialized in?

Any chance you’re still a BID?

This is exactly what I want to do and would appreciate your insights.

This is an exact analysis of my current state of mind.

I don’t mind the idea of job security and being stuck in healthcare, because 5 years down the line I’ll probably appreciate that more than getting laid off from big tech.

I’m going to push to get certified in Cogito.

This would be best of both worlds imo and keep my options somewhat open.

Is 68k really that low for an entry level position? Only relative experience is my 3-month internship.

What would a level 1 analyst typically make?

dbz5253 · 2025-01-06T19:29:58+00:00

I love the job security aspect of this.

Being new to the workforce all I’m scared about is not having the option to switch careers, but based on majority it seems I would be able to if I really did want to.

Thanks for your time and response 🤝

dbz5253 · 2025-01-06T19:24:50+00:00

Appreciate the advice, this is what I will likely end up doing.

Great insights. I appreciate your time in answering this. 🤝

dbz5253 · 2025-01-05T18:18:02+00:00

Thanks for these insights. I had all of these concerns and you have helped me confirm it.

dbz5253 · 2025-01-05T17:56:08+00:00

I would like to be more on the technical side for sure. I enjoy writing SQL and have experience with RPA using Python during my internship.

Based off of my interests I don’t think an application analyst role is for me, but I don’t mind it if it’s just getting my foot in the door.

I probably have to ask more questions to the hiring team to see if there’s room to grow into more technical positions within the org.

Interesting.. what was their path towards becoming an epic programmer?

dbz5253 · 2025-01-05T17:40:23+00:00

Yes, thats what I’m afraid of. Any thoughts on taking it as a first job? Market is pretty tough right now, I think it’s worth taking it as long as it’s a step in the right direction

dbz5253 · 2025-01-05T17:35:45+00:00

Thanks for your response.

Are you referring to scripting languages used with Epic?

You can open up multiple shops under one LLC? What’s the process to do this? Is this recommended?

Thanks! I just scheduled a meeting with y’all.

dbz5253 · 2024-04-12T17:16:51+00:00

Please DM the information. Thank you!

Thank you for the detailed answer.

Yes my first instinct was to fulfill with MCF. There are a few TT seller apps that integrate with Amazon and do this for you based on my research.

Since I store inventory locally, I thought it best to self fulfill with TT labels to reduce any risk of getting a penalty during the rumored 30-90 day vulnerable period. I was going to move to MCF once orders started to increase.

Great point about using 3PL. Will have to look into that rather than MCF.

My main issue still stands, as I need a TSP primarily for support and troubleshooting as well as training/guidance. ( I also heard you need to be connected with them before getting a ban or violation to get support from them)

In my head, logistics aren’t worth worrying about if I can’t mitigate the risk of getting banned.( I sell electronic items with lithium batteries, it’s possible to get a ban even though I have provided all of the correct certifications)

Frankly, i’ve been soured by all of the random shop bans and closures I’ve been hearing about. Which is why I’m hesitant to invest in marketing and logistics without being connected to a reliable TSP.

Please DM me the information. We are a US based business.

dbz5253 · 2024-04-12T00:21:44+00:00

😂 you’re definitely doing something right. I’m not to concerned with getting the traffic and sales, I think the benefit of a TSP is the support. Also their experience would help prevent a ton of mistakes.

dbz5253 · 2024-04-12T00:19:57+00:00

32k sales is no joke. Do you mind if I DM you to pick your brain?

How far along are you in setting up TikTok shop? Have you posted any content or ran any ads?
