Some things I wish I knew before starting wholesale:
- Most of your deals will fall through
- It's going to feel like your fault
- At least some of it will be
- You are going to disappoint people
- So much so that some will hate you

I was brand new to the NFTs a few months ago.
Now I'm helping:
- a project on their drop
- an artist with his 1/1 sales
... and other opportunities keep popping up.
I've been lucky to find awesome connections that have fast-tracked my progress.

Distributors be like:
- "Most are beginners"
- "Most can't meet MOQs"
- "They come and go quickly"
- "They crash prices"
- "Our agreements with manufacturers restrict selling on Amazon"
So how do you get around these objections? 👇

Audiobooks don't give you a chance to digest.
The best books make you put them down every now and then to digest, make connections, and wonder. Audiobooks keep flying with or without you.
When you listen at 1.5-2x it's much worse.
For understanding, a physical book is a must.

I almost lost a $230K deal
...but we turned it into a $250K+ deal.
Here’s how it happened 👇
It was a great deal - 500 units of a PC priced 50% off retail. You could add $100-200 of margin and still be priced under the competition.

The catch?

I agree. I’m not ignorant of iatrogenics. Medicine can harm people and often does.
But try heart surgery or getting your leg repaired after a car accident without analgesics, anesthetics, anti-infectives, etc.
The main point of this is medicine won’t get to people who need it.

Learn to say "No" to the nonessential.
First, recognize that there are very few things that are important.
Distractions come in many forms, and are often cleverly disguised as opportunities and obligations.

For artists & entrepreneurs being a perfectionist is a trap.
I've struggled with perfectionism - conditioned over a lifetime to fear others' opinions.
