Businessmaxxing is glorified hella on social media and niggas are out here making people think their going to be a millionaire at age 19 if they dropship or make a brand/product or service or do YouTube/stream etc. the raw reality is 99% of people are not meant to own a business. I can tell you guys my experience. To even get my business started I’ve already burned through about $11k and that’s honestly a lowball. I’ve worked tirelessly day in and out at my 20 an hour job to fund it. Funds wise my business has been up for about 3 months and in total I’ve made about 8k
But if you factor in business expenses like shipping out product, tax, ad spend I’ve made maybe 1-2k grossing
My bank account is literally at a constant 0. My credit cards are maxed out 24/7 I need to apply for a business card so my credit score doesn’t get clapped. This shit isn’t fun and rainbows nigga ur not going to be on a yatch in Miami or on vacation you gonna be in front of your computer for hours a day looking at analytics planning content making ads innovating new ideas spending money you don’t even have and blowing it on a idea that can completely flop. And even on good days unless you have really high volume it’s unlikely you will make a shit ton of money like these gurus on TikTok make it seem like.
I think it will be atleast 3 years before my business is anywhere near making 10k a month in raw profit (not just revenue. I think I’ll be making 10k a month in revenue by the end of the year
When ur in business you will live like a slave for the next 5-10 years of your life. You will have to work 10x harder and be 10x broker. You will have to live below means for a very long time. The niggas you see on TikTok flaunting money get their money from selling courses. The profit from that is way more than business profits.
Overall do I regret doing this? No. But only cause I have genuine passon. If all I wanted was money I wouldn’t be doing what I’m doing. I would probably have a large amount of savings if it wasn’t for my business. Don’t do any business you don’t truly love or enjoy cause I promise you nigga if all your doing it for is money you won’t make it past a year
