Week 11


I am realizing that selling an online product is a lot more difficult than I had previously thought. In the past I have had a couple products on Amazon, mostly just personal items I was selling, and they all went fairly quickly. So I assumed that selling a product, via e commerce and various sites would be simple enough, since I did not have time between work and school to do something more time consuming. But after making a website, putting it on Amazon, and even running Google Ads I have been unsuccessful. I am also learning that I am not very good with marketing. My husband is an online marketing guru and I tried to learn a lot from him, but it was harder for me to do than it seemed for him. When it comes to running my own business I think I am better at management and planning than I am to actually selling. Knowing this can be very good because it can help me know what to focus on and improve in the future, and possibly, know what to hire other people to do for me in the future. Overall this assignment has really taught me that there is a lot more to a business than I originally thought.
