Starting E-Commerce While Working Full-Time Is Tough - Here’s Why! | Shopify & Takealot South Africa

Thanks Romero.. coming from a dad of a 1 year old, husband and a full time employee. I could not relate more to this video. Been extremely tough finding the time to develop and grow my small business. I have so many ideas and concepts I want to make happen but just don't have the time. And then the added stress of finances. I started my business to try and alleviate my financial difficulties. It's been helping but hasn't gotten to a point where I can actually invest back into the business and grow it. Been a real struggle and hearing that someone who has your success in the game also faces this. Helps. Thanks a bunch for the great content and videos. I hope it goes from strength to strength.

Hey, I wanted to ask a question about courier guy, you see I want to send 6 items ( 50 cm×20 cm×10 cm) and the issue im havin is if i put it as 6 different Parcels it gives me quote of R136, but when I calculate the dimensions if I just buy a BIG box and stuff all the items in there, I put the one Big box as 1 parcel and it gives me a ridiculously expensive quote way above R500

[@hamadmeer2599]

So i just need some guidance as to how i should go about this, should i just box each item separately and send it to The courier guys in 6 different boxes or wat should i do?

[@Jaythecook]

Just put the dimensions of the 1 item ,u said it's R136 right? Then add all the items in 1 box. What I have realized about courier guy is that they don't really weigh a box.

@@Jaythecook No u see i am selling amplifiers, so when i wna send 6 of them I put each amplifier as a different parcel, so 6 bulk parcels ( 6 items ), now when I just put the option for 1 parcel and i put all 6 amps in that 1 parcel(box), it gives expensive

[@hamadmeer2599]

Because when i choose bulk parcels each parcels(box) dimensions end up being eg. 20X20X20, however when i put it in 1 Huge parcel the dimensions of the huge box ends up at around 100X100X10

[@hamadmeer2599]

Now what im not understanding is wether i give them the Huge parcel/box wit all 6 amps inside or pack each amp in its own parcel/box, the price should be the same because the space is gna be around the same. So now why are there so big discrepancies in the prices
