Does one still need to persist in pursuing their dreams?

I. Current Status / Numbers:

Opening the accounts, it's indeed very difficult this year, not just ordinary hard.

Starting from the accounting in 2023, the numbers have been on a steady decline, whether it’s from offline street stalls, online cross-border trade, or my own independent website.

The offline costs are not enough to open a store; they are too high, so everyone has shifted online. The traffic is just this much, so we continue to break our heads, trying every possible method to attract traffic, which is essentially the same ugly cycle as before.

Domestic capital is not circulating, investors are not investing, the outside is blocked from going out, and the capital cannot return, forming a dead cycle that repeats over and over.

What is the way forward?

The sunglasses, under the sunlight, are paired with a white hand-knitted sweater and wutong leaves, looking particularly beautiful.

II. Change\Outlook:

Therefore, it is necessary to find other ways, adopting the idea that "putting more eggs is always better than putting one."

It can only be said that the ideal is very good, but in reality, it is interconnected with obstacles. Many cross-border platforms are not as easy to operate as imagined.

The issue can be discussed in 4 parts.

1、Completely not supporting mainland China, the platform’s strict rules, ordinary beginners have no idea how to start, giving opportunities to agents, but what are the results of these materials?

2、Supporting mainland China, all settings are done well, but when the product comes, it is found that the General Product Safety Regulation (GPSR) law must be followed. The cost of doing it is continuing to spend money, the cost of not doing it is stagnation, so what is the final outcome?

3、Previously done almost unprofitable platforms, do or not do? Because the time and effort invested are completely not proportional to the returns, the main thing is to pre-stock, all are capital pressure, liquidity is gone.

4、Plus the restrictions on receiving payments, even if you do it, you may not receive the money, all are risks.

So I've returned to the previous reflection, whether I need to continue my dream? I've been in a state of defeat, repeating over and over! There was a phrase that always inspired me, "Even if I fail 100 times, as long as I win once, it's ultimately a victory." Now the question arises, I begin to doubt myself, does 100 failures have a result? Can I still persevere and continue as usual after 100 failures? Everything is a mystery!

But what else can one do? There is currently nothing more suitable, or at least something that can yield results, and perhaps this is the helplessness and confusion of entrepreneurship.

Many things can only be digested on one’s own, and communication with others yields no results. Often, people think that there might be shortcuts, but my understanding is that one can only rely on oneself, and many points can only be realized through personal understanding.

Of course, it’s been a long time since I last wrote an article. Today, I want to share the current situation of this period. Perhaps the platform application should let the bullets fly for a while, think about it from all aspects and be thorough before taking the next step. Next, I will research SEO and still need to spend more energy on the independent website, as this is something that can be decided by myself.

3 Tips On How To Persistently Do Something Repeatedly

I'm ashamed to say that my last post was back in February, but I've been delayed for various reasons, so today I'm here to share the topic of “Repeated Persistence”.


I. Our Products

What is the product being sold for?
The direct point is to meet the current fashion and needs, and the resulting supply, through better packaging and sharing, so as to better dissemination and audience.

We’ve talked about this before, and at first we combined it with the resources around us, with the caveat that it had to be manageable. Consumers can have what they need in different seasons. Test the product designer’s market judgment and popular control, better service to consumers, the focus is on brand awareness, the output of the whole plate of goods.


II. Our Goals

What do we do things for?

The current independent station to free traffic diversion, the benefits in with vertical sustainability, and according to the development of the brand can be precipitated, the disadvantage lies in the need for time; of course, paid on the direct results, inevitably invested in a large, but not necessarily a large gain, depending on the brand at all stages of positioning and development. (Fackbook cast flow of the plan will try at the end of this year).

In order to attract traffic and do is SEO as well as social media communication, SEO and social media is actually the same, need to determine the theme in advance and complete the keywords citation, photo and video shooting and post-processing, in the meantime has been considered all-powerful, copywriting and photography and processing need to be completed, the workload is not small. (Ai use with caution, do not expand the details)
In the first stage, after determining the platform and booking a cycle, the above content will be sent according to the plan, what will we do when the expectations are not met?

In the second phase, after having sent it, there is some traffic reflected, but it is not stable, will we continue?

The third stage, traffic up, fans also accumulated, found no conversion, what should we do?

To be honest, the above three stages, under normal circumstances, I believe that the operation of the people will have encountered, whether it is imitation or completely their own original is the same. But the third stage is the most confusing, with the fans why no sales? I was also thinking about this question in this month.

Why?

If we encounter such a problem we can ask ourselves in turn, new brands, no reliability under the premise, will we go to buy? Moreover, under the premise of free traffic?

So, we may at some stage, after a little bit of results will especially think: give and take have to be proportional.
But I would say this is a long process, the battle lines still need to be stretched, may be in the midst of it will be discouraged, will be frustrated, look back to see the experience are so, have come a long way, and a little closer to the goal.


III. Our Accumulation

Learning, thinking and landing step-by-step
If you need to clearly recognize your own direction, you need to absorb and filter it, and adopt what is good for you. There are no identical products in the world, so only you know what you need, and seek within, not without.

If you think you’ve done it all and have a clear conscience, give it all to God, with the help of divine power.

For example: if we do handmade crochet, we proliferate around the theme of keywords to refine the product & express the communication from the consumer's perspective. In the future, we will share more knowledge and ways about crocheting by following up.

The bottom line: cost always comes first, no matter what!

Remember: every penny wasted is pure profit for yourself!

Many of our fans are also curious as to which platforms we are actually working on, so we're stopping by today to share them together.

3 Tips On How To Better Rationalization Time


Looking back on the matters related to this year (online operations and offline operations), from the point of view of time management and results feedback, basically in the expected. Offline operation is relatively simple, this time we mainly talk about online operation.

I believe that to do anything need to have the concept of time, after all, we have so little time every day, how to be more efficient to complete the relevant work?


I. How to make good time?

Choose the relevant platform, suitable for their own category, or personal feeling of operation appropriate. Beforehand, roughly to understand the relevant rules, plan how much time to spend on each platform every day, generally in the spirit of the important platform to spend more time on the principle of good trade-offs and division of labor.

I am to do the whole network at home and abroad, roughly distinguish the way in the operation, basically the same output, after all, each platform is to thousands of rules, the face of the crowd is different. In the era of self media, video, graphics are needed, after all, everyone’s preferences are different.

We are in the basic operation of 2 weeks, the time of the relevant platform have a good control, the time required will also have a concept, then you can go to the way to schedule and complete the work on time in the form of a course schedule.

Note: Crossing the border requires choosing a major area and determining the approximate time difference.
Suggestion: Spend 1/5 of your work day.


II. Advantages of scheduling (analytical summary)

Sending is just the process, analyzing and shooting and post is the most important key to the whole result. Therefore, after 1 month of operation, we can analyze the relevant data, not necessarily all platforms will have good data, simply say there is an upturn. Learn to analyze and clarify their own positioning, the future direction plays an important role.

From this month to analyze the trade-offs, if a number trend and match is very low, you can choose to give up or restart the number, need to consider whether the content is appropriate.
Note: Remaining time to observe competing content and shooting styles, as well as doing a good job of summarizing the content.

Suggestion: Spend 1/5 of your work day.


III. Related Content

Without going into too much detail in this regard, after all, everyone has their own idea of what works for them, and it may take a bit of frustration, or a hit.

Note: There is a lot of free time that can be utilized to think about content or editing.

Suggestion: Spend 3/5 of your work day.

In the beginning there may be just one person, it takes extreme self-discipline, and the payoff behind success is always known to you. Therefore, I will always repeat over and over again to say: persist! For the whole year so far, the data on all platforms is still relatively impressive.

Do what fits the moment! Ultimately: how you organize your day depends on your personal habits and your goals.
