      Silly, please understand you can only get the mouse for 30 if you buy wholesale meaning you buy like 10 or more items. So you spend R300 on 10 wireless mouses that works out to R30 each. If your dumb self went to China mall and bought 1 mouse it's retail price is R79. The concept of wholesale Vs retail is simple. I know you thought you were smart but today you found out you don't understand something a 10 year old would know. Good luck in life bruh. You gonna need it.

      Most people either do not understand the power of compound interest, or are just impatient. For the average Joe, however. I think it is just best to invest in the S&P 500, and just wait, which is reliable, albeit extremely long-lots of years. Or just use a professional analyst and speed up wealth creation. Most people underestimate the power of the latter

    • @ArturoM.Dykstra-55
      @ArturoM.Dykstra-55 6 месяцев назад

      You're absolutely right about the power of compound interest and the long-term potential of investing in index funds like the S&P 500. For many, passive investing in broadly diversified funds can be a reliable strategy over time.

    • @The_SuccessEquation
      @The_SuccessEquation  11 месяцев назад +14

      Hey Mike!
      Thank You! Honestly, returns are quite annoying. Takealot doesn't give the option to replace the customers product, instead they refund immediately.
      So when I get a return (which is quite rare because I make sure my products have decent quality), i just let takealot dispose it because its not worth the time and money to get the one product back

    • @mikeadriano3330
      @mikeadriano3330 11 месяцев назад +20

      @@The_SuccessEquation So you would have to have some sort of reserved funds available in your Takealot account that they could deduct from when a customer does a return? So technically a client could return an item within a 6 month period for whatever reason and be awarded the full purchase price since you aren't allowed to do a replacement? Chinese products are generally mass produced and of inferior quality. I don't think they would last for 3 months let alone 6! This would mean a seller would be stuck in a perpetual loop of refunding clients and this does not make business sense. I take it that repairs are out of the question since replacement parts and labour can get quite pricey. I guess the only solution would be some sort of hedging that the seller could do, probably buy some good quality products and sell them alongside the cheaper ones but then again a newbie would need money and some solid selling experience to be able to do that.

      Let's not make a mistake, Takealot surely "Sellalot", but the cost of warehousing and shipping etc. is an extra that is passed onto the consumer - Takealot is NOT cheap and the seller is paying extra for the benefit of a National market!

    Esentialy the service that takelot is providing is convenience, lazyness and ease of access. Yes you can get al those same products for cheaper but at what costs. Who wants to drive up in down inbetween china malls and supliers just to get a headset for half the price after spending hours driving and searching its not even worth it. But with takelot etc. You can sit back and relax while browsing everything you could posibly need for a few bucks more.

    As a previous seller, there "hidden fees" not mentioned here like your shipping to takealot (if you don't do it), storage fees, takealot commissions which vary per category, maybe there even more now. Selling on this platform is a volume game. Returns were a mess back then, not to mention sometimes you get a returned product not in original condition and you have to sell an open box with items missing or just write it off. The policies benefit the buyer not the seller.

    I have been meaning on selling art prints on Takealot since I am good at art although the things I see on Takealot are very discouraging, There are a lot of people who make great art on Takealot but don't look like they get a lot of sales (based on an assumption that there will be about 2 or 0 reviews) Those are for the sellers who charge R700 upwards. I then encountered a seller who makes sales but charges it at R300 and the reviews are positive about the art quality. I am uncertain about selling on Takealot.

    I answered and said, "If I have found favor in thy sight, O Lord, show this also to thy servant: whether after death, as soon as every one of us yields up his soul, we shall be kept in rest until those times come when thou wilt renew the creation, or whether we shall be tormented at once?" 76 He answered me and said, "I will show you that also, but do not be associated with those who have shown scorn, nor number yourself among those who are tormented. 77 For you have a treasure of works laid up with the Most High; but it will not be shown to you until the last times.
    78 Now, concerning death, the teaching is: When the decisive decree has gone forth from the Most High that a man shall die, as the spirit leaves the body to return again to him who gave it, first of all it adores the glory of the Most High. 79 And if it is one of those who have shown scorn and have not kept the way of the Most High, and who have despised his law, and who have hated those who fear the Most High -- 80 such spirits shall not enter into habitations, but shall immediately wander about in torments, ever grieving and sad, in seven ways.
    81 The first way, because they have scorned the law of the Most High. 82 The second way, because they cannot now make a good repentance that they may live. 83 The third way, they shall see the reward laid up for those who have trusted the covenants of the Most High. 84 The fourth way, they shall consider the torment laid up for themselves in the last days. 85 The fifth way, they shall see how the habitations of the others are guarded by angels in profound quiet. 86 The sixth way, they shall see how some of them will pass over into torments. 87 The seventh way, which is worse than all the ways that have been mentioned, because they shall utterly waste away in confusion and be consumed with shame, and shall wither with fear at seeing the glory of the Most High before whom they sinned while they were alive, and before whom they are to be judged in the last times.
    88 "Now this is the order of those who have kept the ways of the Most High, when they shall be separated from their mortal body. 89 During the time that they lived in it, they laboriously served the Most High, and withstood danger every hour, that they might keep the law of the Lawgiver perfectly. 90 Therefore this is the teaching concerning them: 91 First of all, they shall see with great joy the glory of him who receives them, for they shall have rest in seven orders.
    92 The first order, because they have striven with great effort to overcome the evil thought which was formed with them, that it might not lead them astray from life into death. 93 The second order, because they see the perplexity in which the souls of the unrighteous wander, and the punishment that awaits them. 94 The third order, they see the witness which he who formed them bears concerning them, that while they were alive they kept the law which was given them in trust. 95 The fourth order, they understand the rest which they now enjoy, being gathered into their chambers and guarded by angels in profound quiet, and the glory which awaits them in the last days. 96 The fifth order, they rejoice that they have now escaped what is corruptible, and shall inherit what is to come;
    and besides they see the straits and toil from which they have been delivered, and the spacious liberty which they are to receive and enjoy in immortality. 97 The sixth order, when it is shown to them how their face is to shine like the sun, and how they are to be made like the light of the stars, being incorruptible from then on. 98 The seventh order, which is greater than all that have been mentioned, because they shall rejoice with boldness, and shall be confident without confusion, and shall be glad without fear, for they hasten to behold the face of him whom they served in life and from whom they are to receive their reward when glorified.
    99 This is the order of the souls of the righteous, as henceforth is announced; and the aforesaid are the ways of torment which those who would not give heed shall suffer hereafter." 100 I answered and said, "Will time therefore be given to the souls, after they have been separated from the bodies, to see what you have described to me?" 101 He said to me, "They shall have freedom for seven days, so that during these seven days they may see the things of which you have been told, and afterwards they shall be gathered in their habitations."
    102 I answered and said, "If I have found favor in thy sight, show further to me, thy servant, whether on the day of judgment the righteous will be able to intercede for the unrighteous or to entreat the Most High for them, 103 fathers for sons or sons for parents, brothers for brothers, relatives for their kinsmen, or friends for those who are most dear." 104 He answered me and said, "Since you have found favor in my sight, I will show you this also. The day of judgment is decisive and displays to all the seal of truth. Just as now a father does not send his son, or a son his father, or a master his servant, or a friend his dearest friend, to be ill or sleep or eat or be healed in his stead, 105 so no one shall ever pray for another on that day, neither shall any one lay a burden on another; for then every one shall bear his own righteousness and unrighteousness." .....2 Esdras 7:75

      Once the product is accepted by takealot they give you an option to download barcodes from their seller portal. You can print these onto 45 UP labels (which can be bought from any stationary store or takealot) and simply peel the barcode and place it over the existing barcode of the product.

      Hey! Not a problem!
      Currently working on a video that covers every single step of the process. There are no "masterclasses" needed in order to get approved, but once your application to be a seller is accepted they want you to do an "Onboarding" which is just a bunch of videos that teach you about their policies and how the whole thing works

    I don't think any business can cut 55% profit on such small quantities. That's just absurd.
    Then there's subscription fees, warehousing/storage fees, delivery fees, seasonal fees, and penalties for late deliveries if not warehoused. I'm not sure how a seller can ignore logistics and check every few weeks. You will have penalties for missed orders. Take the risk into account, because you could end up paying takealot quite alot whilst still taking a knock on your stock because you either have to sell below your profit margin or you pay for storage, and either way, takealot gets their fat % of your sale.
    What if you add returns into the mix? Money has to go back, and you have a second hand or damaged item. China town is not going to have manufacturer warranties or returns either. You need cash flow to carry the risk over a period of time.
    More sellers = more subscriptions/storage/penalties/success fees
    You can feed the monopoly, or you can get your own website way cheaper

      It definitely can work work! It all depends on the products you sell tho, obviously there are other ways to boost sales but just make sure that people are not competing with you and "stealing" your sales.
      The other important aspect is reinvesting all of your money back into the purchasing of products etc.
