I did not give up and finally got started.
So anyway, here is my little story:
Back in mid-December after doing a bit of not so good keyword research, I finally found a product that has decent sales and instead of going for wordpress with eBay and Amazon plugin, I started up an ecommerce site and thought I would easily get dropshippers and create multiple sites like this.
After a lot of hard work on getting the site ready (ecommerce script are a mess), I was ready to send out emails, sent a few and after a few days ended up with 0 replies. I thought this was a bad idea and gave up on the site (I know, very stupid and a very bad attitude).
Yesterday I saw that this site is well seo'd etc. and already ranks well on search engines. With some more effort, I might be able to hit the first spot. I thought of changing the site to wordpress and using plugins etc. but wanted to give this a last shot. So I created a email again, this time I wrote it in a way that it was hard to resist and with only 2 emails sent, I already have someone who could take care of all the products needed. I'm ready to get started and with some more effort I should be able to bring in decent sales.
Now, this isn't going to make me a fortune, my keyword research had some flaws so make this even less but its not really about the money. It gives out a great message: Don't give up, stay focused on whatever you're doing. If you think this will work, it most likely will - if it doesn't, you're doing something wrong. Learn from your mistakes and come out again with better experience.
You may only be someone in the world, but to someone else, you may be the world.
