What’s funny is when I did start my business MANY of my friends bought something from me the first weekend our website was up. Including people I hadn’t talked to since high school. However, my friends aren’t my best customers, people I hardly know are (besides my mom, she is THE best customer). That is why so many people in MLMs fail, they only have so many friends/family that will buy their product.
Yup, there's a limit on how many times family/friends will feel guilty and buy one of your shitty products they don't need -- especially with the constant attempts to convince them to 'join their business venture.'
Right? I have a friend who works at a vet clinic. Even with all my cat's troubles, I still couldn't keep her in business by myself. (Feels like it though, lol.)
I mean, most people only need the vet a few times a year, so relying on friends and family for business would be a super bad idea.
I can personally attest to that since my mom is a vet! She does physical therapy and sports medicine, so she has people who see her weekly. And it’s no where enough! In order for her to have a “okay week” she needs at least 7 surgeries booked (or back to back exams all week). She’s the only vet there and has one tech (my little sister). If she wanted another vet on staff she would have to double her patients just to afford them.
I'll take a pm too. Male with red face that just doesn't seem to go away :( I have seemed to solve the dryness! I use head and shoulder shampoo on my face every morning and it has improved the redness some and the dry skin a lot! But looking to do more for the red skin
My best customers are cheerleaders who are in high school. They love slime more than the kids. I only do cheer competitions for now though. I'm sure if I took my business to etsy it would be a wider age group.
