      Good, this is extremely easy to relate to. It turns failures into lessons and makes success something that's just a matter of time with obsession in the beginning. This is the key that unless you dig deep you can't really move forward in any business direction. Thanks.

      Why did you not decide to order more of the charcoal teeth whitening kit and sell it on Amazon USA instead of looking for a new product? You’d done all the research on this so it must have been a good product apart from the labelling issues in Canada.

    So 32k revenue for the derma roller. At $14.97 that’s >2138 units.
    So you had your initial investment of 1800 for 400 units. But obviously you had to get more inventory to meet that 32k in a month. How long after launching did you ramp up inventory to a level for 32k?
    Thanks for the info btw

Has been driving me insane, as every rep tells me different things, and in the end all I get are automated emails asking for a Health Caanada license. No matter how much I explain I dont have one, because it is not a medical device, they just send the same automated email.

    Hey Dan, I filed for my sole proprietorship in Alberta this week to sell FBA in the US. I'm looking into opening a USD bank account to avoid the Amazon exchange rates. My plan is to just open a basic account with TD as that's who I do my personal banking through, that is unless you know of a better method for it?
    The other question I had for you was about the Amazon storage limits for new sellers. It doesn't make sense to ship 200 units at a time from China, is there a 3PL company in the US you could recommend? I don't want to do that myself because it adds another customs for the product to clear. Thanks for all the videos, they've helped me a lot with even getting this far!
