Day in the life documenting the process of building a Seven figure business at 19…in just 365 days! This is the day in the life of a 19 year old, 365 days to prove to his parents that turning down university was the correct decision to instead go all in with his business and document taking it from 6 to 7 figures. It was a bright and early start this morning. Kidding, it was 11:00 AM. Anyways, to the warehouse. We have over 8,000 pounds worth of stock to send to Amazon, which is very scary because this one box alone makes up over four grand's worth of inventory. It looks pretty. These mascaras waterfalling falling into the box, but this took six hours of labelling. I mean, it's definitely worth it because this one box alone is gonna make me £1,000 in profit. When I told my parents that information, they genuinely couldn't believe it. And I couldn't believe that my thermal printer is broke again. Business really does have a way of knocking you down. I generally don't even want to speak about how long this took me to fix. But we can finally print the FBA labels for the product that we got ungated on last week. For the last week, I had three grand's worth of stock that I just couldn't sell, but Amazon has finally unbanned me, which was perfect timing cause my cash flow was looking horrendous. You watching right now? Better drop me a follow because I've coughed up my racking just to get better lines to show you me sticking labels. Okay, maybe I'll reenact King Kong, but this is a little bit. Now the 14th pallet that we've sent to Amazon in the last two weeks. I'm very close to proving my parents wrong as well. So you might as well follow me to help my case.
