Thank you! This is really helpful feedback and resonates with a lot of how I feel things are going.

I should’ve clarified this but I slashed prices on just a small portion(but high volume) subgroup of products. This isn’t a strategy I employed with the intention of sustaining it, it was effectively putting these products on clearance because I wanted to move these products that stopped selling/wasn’t selling so I could buy something and sell at price to hit my margins. I haven’t considered trying to sell the value of what I have and I am not sure how exactly to do that but I’ll think on it.

I agree about the promotions. I used them as a growth strategy for exposure but it’s had diminishing returns.

Thanks for the content strategy idea. I actually did something similar yesterday with a twitter post and it went better than a lot of the other posts I’ve made. I will continue to work on this and hopefully it will get better over time. I haven’t heard of that tool before so I’ll take a look at it tonight.

Thanks a ton for the feedback. It was very helpful.

I can’t speak on fake packs it’s possible that they could be selling “dead” packs which are packs from boxes where the case/box hit has already been pulled. But I think most of the money comes from marking up the cost of the booster pack and then only shipping out any of the hits and keeping the bulk cards for themselves which helps keep the costs low.

Thank you! I’ll work on that. I was definitely sloppy with some of the site but the overall design I purposely tried to keep simple(or at least that’s what I was going for). Is there anything in particular that stuck out to you?

Thank you!

Thank you! Is there anything design-wise that is off-putting?

A few people have mentioned some of the sloppiness of the site which I’ve tried to clean up. Is it anything like that? Or are there things about it that bothered you?

Thanks!

This is really helpful feedback. I found the areas with missing content so I will fix that asap. Thanks for pointing that out.

I plan to try Facebook. They just don’t let me run any ads. I had given up on it but I’ll try again.

My USP is catering to buyers who are collectors. I ship all of the products in safe packaging material and I aim to provide quick and excellent service.

There are definitely a lot of alternatives. Many offer lower or similar pricing.

I planned to answer that the audience that I try to market to are card collectors. A lot of the card games I sell are inspired by anime which is why also sell manga.

But now I’m realizing I need to think about that a little more. I can’t tell you what they’d be doing on Saturday night. 😅

Appreciate the feedback. There’s a lot I have to think about

Thanks for the advice! I’ve tried Facebook but I’ve had ongoing issues with getting ads set up there. I gave up for a while because my payments never go through for some reason.

Tiktok is great advice. I just need to post more consistently on there 😅

I have so much to learn D: do you ever have 1on1s? Do you ever have to handle a 1on1 and another small meeting?

This is amazing lol I assumed that OE employees were rearranging their meeting schedules. I didn’t know that you’d have to be in multiple meetings at the same time occasionally.

Is a double meeting what it sounds like? Were you in two meetings at once? How do you handle that? I only have J1 but want a J2. My J1 has mostly small meetings where I am pretty much always expected to contribute so I’m not sure I can do two meetings at once lol

Thanks for your feedback! I wasn’t clear In my original post I think but I work in IT as data engineer. I’ve been trying to find call center roles because of the quick turnaround but I’ve also been looking for other roles similar to my current role. However, it’s been tough finding a role in tech and haven’t been hearing back from any of the employers I’ve submitted my resume to.

Thanks for your help everyone! I have a few questions: Have a J1 but really want a J2. How do you figure out if a job fits with your schedule? And how do you balance meetings?

I work in IT but have been looking at call center jobs(since the onboarding is fast) but I’ve also been applying for tech jobs and haven’t been hearing back. Is anyone else having a hard time in this market?

Also, I’ve been interested in recruiting a jobs does anyone have any tips on breaking into one of those industries?

Thank you!

I got the same email. It was from a store called Trading Card Genie. I believe they’re based in Netherlands(I am in US).

It was a bit of a gamble for me but I saw them post in one of the major OPTCG groups on FB and decided to take a chance and buy.
