So here we are.... some however many months later. We FINALLY sold our last couple of things we've had hanging around some random Amazon warehouse waiting to be bought and got our little baby payout for it. All in all... it was a legit flop for us.
Key word being: FOR US Getting a good deal on stuff to resell and staying on top of what you CAN and CAN'T sell, where to send it, where to find it, how to fund it... listen, we wanna make dough and we know we have to work for it but DAMN! We felt like we were sacrificing more of what we're trying to GAIN (read: family time, money, TIME...) giving Amazon FBA a shot so... I requested all the crap that wasn't moving to be sent back to me, the rest of it finally sold, like I said aaaaaand we're back to square one... maybe even at square -6 or so by now because the crap that wasn't selling is now in the garage in the bucket of "take pictures and post on ebay or Craigslist or something and try to recoup SOME money". Also which has now been sitting there for.... ohhhh... well over a month. Hey now! Don't be judging me Nacho! I tried! I'm a woman who always has a project and somewhere along the lines of my wall-hitting frustration I decided it would be a good idea to make some small updates around the house and drive my incredibly patient husband bonkers. Aaaaaaaand THAT project also isn't finished... but you know... that's a blog post for another day... and another blog... ayyyyyy yay yay... * note to self: lookup the nearest "unifinished projects anonymous" group * Alright so anyway... there you have it. We tried Amazon FBA, we failed, we moved on. Affiliate Marketing: In all honesty, I still haven't put much effort into it. I LOVE writing, I do... but when it comes to writing about stuff that doesn't necessarily interest me because I HAVE to... all of a sudden I'm brain farting worse than old Aunt Bert when she accidentally eats too much ice cream with "that lactose" in it after Thanksgiving... yeah... its no bueno. I don't actually HAVE an Aunt Bert, but He does aaaaaaand while I quite honestly have no idea whether there is any truth to that amazing example I just made up, Im pretty sure it would be like a slow nostril death regardless.
