Y’all I want to share a HUGE win with y’all. I just finished my first TikTok Live and I’m happy to say I did $730 in sales in less than two hours. The craziest part? This was with an account that had 0 followers!!
And guess what I sold?
Even crazier… my leftover rugs. 😵💫 Yep, you heard that right! This was a clip from the live.
Safe to say… I’ll definitely be going live again. 🚀
A lot of people ask me how I pack my rugs.
Big boxes. 😂 No but seriously, here’s a sneak peek: 3 rugs inside one 30x8x8 box. After enough LIVEs, I’ve gotten so good at fitting these things into boxes that I tell my family I’ve become the Jeff Bezos of packing. Sometimes I even surprise myself 😂
Next experiment: poly tubing. Shoutout to @kip_roland for giving me the idea, and if it works, it could make packing a whole lot easier while saving me on shipping. I’ll keep y’all posted.
@hey_mindi Thank you Mindy, it was thanks to you that I got inspired to start my entrepreneurial journey! It feels like forever since I started but really it was just a few months ago, time flies!
Dude Shams, you’re seriously inspiring me bro 😂🔥 I think Friday or Saturday I’m gonna take a page out of your book and do a show where I don’t get off until I hit $1K GMV too.
You’re really out here blazing the trail for us. Congrats man, love seeing you figure this out in real time!! 🔥🔥
The biggest shortcut in business is realizing there are no shortcuts.
Today I packed and delivered over 100 rugs to USPS in an old SUV my parents lent me because I sold my car to buy more inventory.
I made two trips. The car had no AC, so each time I arrived in a pool of sweat before I even began unloading. 😂
Then I rushed back home because tonight I was doing my very first food LIVE.
Tomorrow: I can’t wait to do it all again!
