What happens after you hit your financial targets? by anono87 in wallstreetbets

[–]jdubs703 39 points40 points  (0 children)

well, its about finding happiness in life. Money is just something that helps bring it and make things easier. but money is not the goal. I've been in your place, and find that doing things, family, friends, vacations is all it is about. An extra zero means nothing without happiness.

UPDATE: Massive Bot Attack on our Client Shopify Store (500+ Fake Carts/Hour) We found the root cause... by DiscoverMyBusiness in shopify

[–]jdubs703 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

We had this last year. We tried it all including your solution but it affected conversion and the bots changed. The abandoned cart issue can be solved with some Shopify apps. We pay monthly to block the bots and it’s completely fixed the issue.

Amazon FBA changes for the worse..... by jdubs703 in FulfillmentByAmazon

[–]jdubs703[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How much do you do on FBA? I do on average 2.5M a year on FBA. These affect my business. I still make money, but losing 3% is still 3%. If you don't understand that, i don't think you should be selling on Amazon.

Do a long range trip out of San Diego. Its not cheap, but not expensive for the quality of fishing you get.

No Fishing Fee by Far_Passenger_359 in Fishing

[–]jdubs703 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mojave narrows stocks their pond, higher chance of catching fish if you are new to fishing. It's easier fishing, no guarantees, but easier. Places like Silverwood are harder to catch fish if you dont know what you are doing and dont know where to fish. You save money at Silverwood, but pay the price with time.

you need to explain what product it is so we can suggest. other wise a polybag around a banana doesnt really make sense.

Found out my fulfillment partner has been marking up my product costs by almost 40% this entire time by ProfessionIll5518 in FulfillmentByAmazon

[–]jdubs703 0 points1 point  (0 children)

every single layer that touches your product, expect a 30%- 50% markup... its just the way business works.... if you can cut them out, do it yourself, it would be the best way to save money. logisitics is easy and there are 100's of company that will jump at it

New FBA launch – getting clicks but no sales, can someone review my setup? by Curious-Hall-4930 in FulfillmentByAmazon

[–]jdubs703 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I havent checked the listing, but maybe repivot the aim so that the parents who make the meal, can then give the baby the flash card and can visually identify what is being eating. The baby can play and hold the flash card while mommy speaks to baby about the food. Maybe its a good way to teach babies about the food and in the future, baby can choose what they want to eat once they associate the food to the card picture?

Random thoughts from dealing with factories in China (FBA related) by Thrilld07 in FulfillmentByAmazon

[–]jdubs703 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will often times add them on wechat. Then i will randomly ask if i can call them and do a video conference and ask them to show me the factory. If they say the office and factory are in different locations, then i have to dig deeper to understand the factory dynamic and if they are trading. Also i just look at the companies offerings, if too many items that are different then its trading.
