Guest guest Posted April 24, 2010 Report Share Posted April 24, 2010 Hey Dallas,The question seems to be, will you be another needle in the haystack, and is it worth it.Yes, and yes!!!There is so much out there, that you may appear to be buried among the masses. However, if you believe in your product, and believe in yourself, you can't go wrong. Have you " tested " your market area? Seen what else is being marketed that is similar to your product? Seen how they are doing what they are doing, and maybe what you could do differently without compromising your core beliefs? I wish you luck! Keep us posted, and remember that we here in HAWK land have a lot of experience in just this sort of thing. I hope others respond soon.Peace, love, laughterWe have an obligation to understand the ramifications of the things we do, and to choose to do them -- or not -- with our eyes open.

Guest guest Posted April 24, 2010 Report Share Posted April 24, 2010 Two years ago my husband bought me some heirloom seeds as a gift, I started telling him how important I thought eating pure foods was, and he decided to sell heirloom seeds online. We've shown a profit ever since our first month. Of course we had a really good website his s-i-l wrote, and lots of advertising, and we have very low shipping, and good customer service. It's not just the product that sells. And I'm not trying to sell anything, in fact I'm deleting the URL from my signature for this post. Online selling is both good and bad, it's hard to get a good ranking right away, but it can be done, you'll need quite a bit of capital to buy products, etc Yes, you can do affiliate sales [drop ship] but they are special urls and Google filters those from it's results. I had a very good online business with over 200 sites until Google decided to re-do their algorithm, excluding affiliate sales, And the companies will severely rip you off. I'm not trying to dissuade you, I hope you do very well, I'd love to see a good herbal online store. Most are strictly from commersh.

Guest guest Posted April 25, 2010 Report Share Posted April 25, 2010 sure. if your prices are within reason and your product is good.. then yes. i've tried alot of places over the years.. some are still in business and some not.. it depends on you. You can set up a website and go from there.. this list in the past has traded, sold and bought herbs etc.. we advertise on Sundays only. If you are selling, buying, looking for, trading whatever. You may find though with the economy like it is people will be wanting to barter more (if you advertise on the list).. But why not set up a website and see what happens.. it won't happen overnite.. word of mouth will also help you. Suzi List Owner health What is a weed?

Guest guest Posted April 25, 2010 Report Share Posted April 25, 2010 Would you have to have your gardens inspected before selling to the public? Carol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 25, 2010 Report Share Posted April 25, 2010 I'm only giving mine away, should I have them inspected?
