eh?
even if avg order $200
2 orders/day = 12k/month
..
$1,600/month expense can turn $21k net pretty easy... consistency in supply is the only issue... that, and picking up the cash.
10 months, 210k...get in, don't blow the cash, don't do rec's, and get out.
I am not following your math here. Can you explain a bit more?
But I can tell you now that there is not a single domestic source operating out there right now that does 21K per month. That is not happening. Now there are some that I know that will SELL that much, but they are also acting as a middle man for a larger source. A lot of their sales are generated by the larger source and the shipping duty falls on them. Just because that op is turn that much money, it doesn't mean that one person is keeping it. Once you become a middle man, your profits drop drastically.
Generally there are two methods to do. First is do everything yourself. Ordering, brewing, filling, labeling, shipping, collecting. You make the most here. The drawback to this is that due to your small size you will never generate enough client base to make very much and justify taking such a risk with your freedom. You will make some, that is true. But you will never generate biz on other boards where paying sponsors have their hands in it behind the scene. Second way is to partner up with a source. You can either buy all your gear in bulk from them and repackage/rebottle them yourselves and in return the source will add your "brand" to their site. (Or either you just use their brands and become a domestic reshipper) Since they get all the heavy traffic anyway, you don't have to advertise at all. But for each sale the source is going to take a cut of it. So you dont make all that much, but on the other hand you don't have to work as hard either. The source handles all the advertising and bringing the customers in, the order fulfillment generation, they send you the product so you don't have brew it and you have access to an already established name brand for doing your little side biz on your own. If the batch is bad (it happens at times) you don't have to eat the cost and spend your own money replacing bad gear that went out. The source will send you replacement gear to use. So all you have to do basically is break down the bulk supplies into vials/bags and wait for the source to send you the shipping list. The source collects all the money and then pays you once a month.
Oh and collecting money isn't the hard part. That is fairly easy. Even if you go solo, you can find people who will agree to hit up WUs for you in return for 10% of the amount they are collecting. The hard part is legitimating that money in a way that you don't leave a paper trail in case anyone comes sniffing around down the road.
Remember that old company HCG5000. That sold only two products, HCG and sterile water? They were rolling in the green. I know those two owners personally as they only live 20 minutes from me and we moved in the same circles at times. Or rather, used to know them. The husband is in jail now because of a money paper trail and his wife is under house arrest (it may have ended already) but she runs another popular internet company now that is on the other boards. (But it is legit products and she does well.) But he got popped not for his business, but for carelessly spending his money.
