Just want to add a good bit of distributors have moved to requiring a active and functional website

[@ToGoBox69]

Good video! As someone who has been selling online for 3 years trust me you don’t need a distributor you can find people dumping product online for just as cheap plus you don’t have to take crappy product from them.

I love watching business content in areas I don’t intend to work in too lol. It’s great background noise and u always pick something small up that’s useful. Thanks for being here!

You are a real hero, man. You’ve inspired the hell out of me and given me every bit of info I was lacking. Now I just have to get after it for experience and to build a brand. Just wanted to say thanks again. You’re amazing for this. It was great chatting a little in Alex’s rip and ship stream yesterday. You’re a legend and we all just trying to get like you! Thanks again for all you do and share with us!

[@IronandFinch]

Very important question...what do you do to control the humidity and temp in your underground lair? We just purchased a new home and our basement space is almost identical to yours but the humidity has been a killer. We purchased a big ol' dehumidifier for the space and it seems to be controlling it better (still not perfect). Any other tips/tricks that I'm missing? Thanks for all of your content!

[@pokene_pokemon]

Great question… we built our house from the dirt up and for the first 4 months it was very humid… to the point out shipping boxes were like… soft/ish … We had 3 $250 dehumidifiers from Home Depot. Kept 2 running 24/7 and had the 3rd in case one died… after about 6-7 months, the humidity just kinda fixed itself to the point we no longer even need them. Must just be a new-construction problem

[@IronandFinch]

@@pokene_pokemon Thanks! Until it's under control I may just continue to use my Flesh and Blood bulk foils as the test! So far they're failing miserably. When you did have the humidity issues, did you have any noticeable changes to the actual product? Because you deal in sealed, I'm assuming the shrink wrap + foil wrapper did a good job of protecting the stock.

[@nicholasdehaas4713]

What do you like to use for shipping labels? Pirate ship? Or is there something better? I have Wix, not sure what works best with Wix. Thank you!

[@pokene_pokemon]

Shippo talks to wix really well - highly recommend

[@redfordreviews]

Good video. Title cards would have been useful and broke up the video.

[@dynamaxdeals]

Regarding the 1st question. Im literally designing my store right now. I sell singles on TCGPlayer for Pokemon and Digimon. Would I be at risk of getting shut down?

[@pokene_pokemon]

No ur good 👍

[@KristiGibbsLPC]

Are we allowed to use Pokémon in our business name or llc, or does it need to be shortened to Poke? Such as for ex, Pokemon Palace vs Poke Palace

[@QuickCastClipsTV]

that will actually make quite a good video if PokeNE had a talk about brand names using pokemon or even a pokemons name like lugia shop for example

[@QuickCastClipsTV]

i do remember seeing one of his videos tho talk about how he regretted in the long run putting poke in the name cuz now hes also selling other card games and it kinda looks odd but hes so popular he can no longer change it but its still okay his name is good to me , just noting this here for u guys incase u didnt see that video

[@MrAmadeus1998]

Are you Canadian?

[@BattleDuelists]

What do you think of Business 2 Business as a distributor? You can probably still make a profit just a lot less

[@pokene_pokemon]

Not bad but only if you have a million dollars in inventory. Getting 200K of products at a new release isn’t enough for a realistic bulk model to work

[@BattleDuelists]

@@pokene_pokemon So only if you have enough inventory, what about the other way around? Just starting the business and doing B2B with a bigger fish to get your hands on certain products?

[@jeeeffgamez7379]

When designing a logo, are you able to use actual Pokémon images? Or is that a copyright violation?

[@pokene_pokemon]

Deffs avoid actual images

[@massimolanna5664]

Before getting a distributor, where did you get your product from?

[@pokene_pokemon]

Japan

[@washedtoohot]

@@pokene_pokemon the country/government? Lol

[@RushCardsRUs]

My favorite video❤️

[@ByteTCG]

in your early days would you sell products at a loss to grow a customer base?? would you ever offer free shipping to be even more aggresive

[@pokene_pokemon]

Never sold at a loss- lowered my margins quite a bit in some items as needed but never at a loss

[@clownbosss9617]

What was and is currently net profit… also how long did it take to get there.

[@ccncards]

so in germany every big tiktoker is doing pack openings, what should I do to seperate me?

[@sirmigdizzle5709]

How much sales do you think southern hobby is impressed by? 50k, 100k 500k, 1 mill?

They worked with me when I hit a mil but I’m sure that’s not necessary these days

[@sirmigdizzle5709]

@@pokene_pokemon thanks for the reply as always just hit 15k in sales on TT, so 1 mill here I come 😭.
