Hustle You Way To Big $$$! GO RIGHT TO THE SOURCE!

Hey everyone!

Just wanted to share a concept similar to one I plan on putting into action in the near future.

It's simple. Buy products for cheap, market them as high end, sell for a shit load higher than you paid for it! A great example I choose to use is USB's




Sites I use for suppliers: dhgate
aliexpress.com
alibaba.com
ioffer.com

I'm sure all you computer people know a 256GB USB runs easily around $70+



So it's safe to say we have a decent margin on this product. It costs $6.48 for us to get it and we can sell it for let's say... $95.00 (especially after marketing it as a high end product)

So i'm not going to get into any unnecessary stuff. You understand that the margin is big on this usb already. Maybe we would be able to sell it for around $45.00 before marketing and maybe $95-120 after!

The Magic Of Marketing
Welcome to your marketing crash course

Okay so if you wanted to be normal quick and plain you'd buy maybe 10 of those USB's for about $70. Sell them on amazon or ebay for $45-58 each and take your profits. But why not with the power of marketing make our product instantly worth double!

Make it appear as a luxury item, make a basic website and structure your site as a luxury accessory site. Then BOOM. You're in business.

Let's say we are marketing the gold USB. We can easily market this as a luxury item. If we do it similar to the way those in the watch industry market their products. Doing this can instantly create more value for us!

Observe...


People in the market to buy a 256 GB USB already know they are going to be paying a good $90+ it's just already what they expect. BUT! What if you offered them the SEXY, SLEEK, GOLD USB that you see all the successful people using on instagram!

But wait Yous..... how the hell am I going to get a picture of me holding my gold USB next a fucking Bentley!

YOU DON'T HAVE TO! For a simple investment and a few exchanges of emails you go to these people on instagram and tell them about your product. Something like:

"256GB's of Storage for the serious businessman"

"The new sleek and sexy way to carry around important business files, for true high end business professionals"

......You get the idea

Send out 5-10 samples to people you exchange e-mails with. Tell them you will give them your 'super powerful sexy amazing modern businessman usb' for free if they feature it on their Instagram!

Which knowing these kind of people will be dying to do so because
1. They want to appear famous and as if they get cool sponsorships
2. They want to show off that they got the coolest latest thing first

Make sure the USB is already listed on your simple website for a large amount something like $178.99. This makes them think they are getting a $200 high end, high quality item for free just to post a picture of them using it!

Also offer to give them a custom coupon code with their name in it to give to their friends. Make it a pretty big discount something like 30%. Because this adds EVEN MORE VALUE! Because their friends think they have an inside deal on a high end product. When in reality you are selling a fucking $6.48 usb for well over $100!

But wait... LET'S ADD EVEN MORE VALUE! Make it 'Limited Edition' make it a product you only sell around maybe November-December. This creates urgency to buy it and people think they will get a rare unique item that has limited quantities around the world!

Alright so let me wrap this up...

NOTICE THIS!
1. None of the instgram pictures I used were from major companies they were from individuals (real people with followers) on instagram.

2. You only need a simple website that appears super high end and fancy.
Simple watch website example: http://www.tayroc.com/
Advanced (will add a shit ton of extra value) website example: http://www.cornichewatches.com/

3. THIS DOES NOT ONLY APPLY TO USB's BE CREATIVE USE YOUR BRAIN THINK AND YOU WILL BE ABLE TO SELL THINGS FOR 40x MORE THAN THEY ARE WORTH WITH EASE. THE USB WAS JUST MY EXAMPLE

If you want to see more examples of how the watch industry creates value check out instagram.com/dailywatch they feature 1000's of the kinds of pictures I just showed you and they @ the person in the picture 80% of the time. You can also check out instagram.com/menwithclass

I like your way of thinking, it's similar to the marketing strategies of cellphone companies , for example iphone vs androids , where as they both do the same thing iphones are double the price of an android.

Dunno where you found the math that iPhones double the price of Android phones, R O F L.

I actually work at a cellphone company, check the specs on an iphone 4s and a samsung galaxy s3 , same right ? Now check the price.

This is genius! Really is,but the only thing I worry about is the company or someone that make the product see it , when it get alittle too popular

If by this you mean the supplier you don't have to worry. Chinese USB manufacturers probably don't spend too much time on HackForums 😝

The suppliers already have a business. It's supplying that's what they know and understand. It would be difficult for them to get into selling elsewhere for various reasons. In that world it's currently "the latest newest trend" for suppliers in china to put their products on amazon or etsy for 50% more haha.

Also the USB is just ONE example of the millions of products on those sites.

Thanks for you for the reply ,yeah your right the main purpose of this stuff is for others to sell,but I have a question ,off topic how do you think one would go about making a profile like that of they own I mean they get alot of free staff to take a picture of it and post plus getting paid autopilot because I sew one guy only changing 80 dollars for shoutout , and I wonder would it be a good investment to fake it till you make it,like buy followers so you look legit then post till you get someone to ask for shoutout ,what you think?

Being famous has it's perks absolutely. But the truth about that industry is that you can't really fake taking pictures with million dollar cars and $10k+ watches.

But.... what you can do is create a sort of fan page. You know how there are all those gym pages with quotes + workout tips? Make that but with watches and cars. Grow it to a 1m+ following and the free stuff/profit will take care of itself.

As for faking it till you make it that only works to a certain extent. I only believe in buying 2k-20k followers when you are just starting to instantly build some credibility. Nobody wants to follow a guy following 8000 people and is followed by 450 everyone associates that with being a loser. Which is why when starting off buying 'fakes' for cheap helps give some credibility.
