If you want to start a business selling things, how do you get the products to sell?
My wife and I started a business (on the side) and we sold our first product 3 years ago. Last month we sold about $65,000. Here's what we did:We set up a free account with ecwid.comUploaded the products photos, descriptions and prices of the products we wanted to sellSet up a business Facebook pageRan Facebook ads to our target audienceSet up a wordpress websiteRan Google Ads for people searching for our productsPut together a free online training course on how to use our products It's not as easy as it sounds. For the first two years we lost money because we invested heavily in ads. But our sales were growing steadily. About a year ago the manufacturer called us and asked if we would become a distributor for our territory. That's really when sales took off, and it made everything worth it. However, you have to start by selling the first product, stick with it and stay consistent, and you never know what doors will open up for you. Good luck!
Is it cruel to take the puppies away from the mother dog and sell them?
I’m not sure that I’m equipped to speak on the ethics of this but I will say that when I got my current two (they’re brother and sister from the one litter), they were 2 puppies out of a litter of 16, and by the time they were 8 weeks old their mother wanted rid of them.She’d lost patience, body condition and didn’t have the energy. Even though the pups were weaned they were still trying to feed from her and constantly bothering her - she started to lose her temper with them.I’m pretty sure as we drove away, I could hear her sigh and say ‘Thank f*ing god! They’re finally out of my hair!”My two arrived home and proceeded to try the same thing with my 11 year old girl dog Caia (in fact they made her bleed once trying to feed off her - I can tell you she wasn’t impressed, the poor thing).Thankfully it only took a few days for them to get used to being away from mum - they had us to snuggle with instead.This is them at about 9 weeks I thinkUpdate 1: Wow thanks to everyone who’s been reading this. You’ve made it my most popular answer to date!Now I know the key to Quoran success is gratuitous puppy cuteness! Glad you approve!Update 2: Some bonus gratuity to make you smile!Sorry the snaps aren’t great. This is Zana and Sarabi at 4 weeks oldCouldn’t get Zana to stay awake, I had to keep propping her head up!
Would you sell your dog or cat for $100,000?
Call me a terrible person but yes, in a heartbeat.Meet AlfredoCute huh? Also a huge frustration. Where do I begin. Alfredo came to our home when we were looking for a companion for my husband. Our other dog is extremely clingy to me, so we thought a second dog would be good.We found him on Craigslist. His listing said that they were being evicted, couldn't keep dog, along with a selfie.Said selfie made Alfredo look like a 40lb terrier mix. HA - he's more of an 11lb terror.The poor thing had been abused. He had a difficult time with food, it was clear he was never sure where he'd get his next meal - he ate half a large pizza once. Just last week he ate a muffin paper. He's been in our family for 3 years, he gets fed more than enough, twice a day, and he still steals food.He constantly pees in the house. If I stick him outside he cries and the neighbors complain.I can't take him to the groomers because he gets aggressive.He barks at everything and acts like I'd expect a German shepherd to behave - except he's just a poof.He has unbelievable anxiety issues. He's constantly licking his feet, but gets so into it he just kindof trails off onto the furniture.He's a blanket hog and a bed hog.While at the core, we love him - all of the above causes stress in our marriage. We've tried to find a new home for him but honestly who wants a dog that pees everywhere?If someone wanted him enough to fork out that much money, I'd hand him over in an instant.
Anmol sold two items for Rs. 1000 each. On one, he gained 10% and on the other, he lost 10%. How much did he gain or lose in the whole transaction?
If he gained x% on one and lost x% on another, the formula is x(square)/100In this case 100/100.Which is equal to 1% Loss.Note that in such cases, it is always a loss.Regarding the cost price of the two articles,there is a simple method to follow.Assuming the Cost price as 100,subtract the loss percentage from 100.Which is equal to 99.Now equate it to the Selling price which is 2000(1000+1000)because there are two items.This will be equal to 202.02So the Cost price is 202.02 and the Selling price is 200.Hence, the loss is Rs.2.02ps.Hope this helps!
Can somebody please help me find this plush toy for sale somewhere?
Zou Coron by Nakajima Sold in Sanrio stores a long time ago, but I don't know if they even still sell them. The Sanrio store in my state was closed down and the closest one is 11 hours away. I can't find this elephant online anywhere! Here's an image: http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lnbn9f...

My hamster keeps me awake all night, please help!!?
My hamster will not be quiet during the night. I have tried everything!! I have bought a silent wheel so that s not the problem. He has plenty of toys and chews and hiding spots. I ve tried him in different cages but he completely freaks out in a new environment and won t settle. He chews his water bottles and has broken three so far, I ve got one that won t break but he s trying his best by chewing the metal. I ve even tried giving him walnuts to break into but he waits until during the day to do that and then gets back to chewing the bottle at night. He is in a quiet, dim room but just tried to make as much noise as possible. I ve tried so many different things but he just goes back to his bottle. And occasionally the bars. Please help!!
My small dog ate a considerable amount of candle wax...?
I'm going to refrain from telling you to get a match ...[g] They are only TEA Lights, ( I was more concerned, until I saw the pic) so that isn't a huge amount for a 16 lb dog. You can probably expect some "speckled" poop in the future, depending on the candle color. Or perhaps an amount of throwing up, but I suspect she'll just pass the pieces. I wouldn't worry or be concerned too much (which does nothing anyway) you already have a call into the Vet. :)
