For someone whose' tried before and failed w/ something that wasn't a good fit, this is the best breakdown I've seen on how to (step by step) build a solid, functional business properly.
Finally somebody that's not a marketing agency scammer. Inspiring , I had my first business at 15-16 making 3000-4000$ a month. I didn't know how to manage any of it and it all fell apart. Now I'm much older and more resilient than ever. Goal is to get back to 3k months and beyond. I want to free my mom, she has sacrificed a lot and is an amazing women .. She deserves the world and I will do whatever it takes.
I am like that too, at this point of my life 😢😢😢tired of waiting for a paycheck and so eager to work for myself full time and stay home earning money without having to leave my house
He positioned a brand for a simple product (bedding) as youthful (quirky, funny, sustainable) and succeeded from that. I guess he solved problems of sustainability/quality, but the brand (and marketing tactics of it) is why the thing was able to succeed
How did you have such a large email list before launching? Most startup businesses have to slave away at advertising and marketing just to get a few first clients. That was perhaps the biggest key to your initial sales success.
Dude! This guy is selling an actual non course thing! When we put you on blast in the comments for not having more vids like this, hit us with links to these vids!
It took me till 3 minutes into the video before I realized where he got his company name from. And, i'm positive a few of your viewers....will have no idea because they have never heard of the expression. Good name though. I like it. Great channel too!
hey i just found your channel and absolutely love it!! subscribed right away. as somebody trying to build her own freelancing business, i find these stories really inspiring. it would be REALLY cool to see a woman on here! it's incredible seeing all of these success stories, but it definitely makes it feel a bit out of reach when there are zero women in the thumbnails. want to emphasize that this is NOT a criticism, i just really would genuinely love to see a video like yours centring a woman's story 😊❤
So it's a bedsheets website? Did I miss it or did he say anymore about what the company actually does? Or what's different about it? (where are the giggles). I needed more from the interview lol. Founder gave such salient insights though. Loved that. Ty
Yeah.. it’s always inspiration and no real insight from this channel unfortunately. And with one without the other you are easily left with just a feeling of your own lack of insight to follow any kind path. The value of inspiration is sort of highjacked by all the questions that you are left with. I have seen a couple of episodes on the channel and it’s the same for all of them. This one i did not even check, i was curious to see how many of you that, again, felt the same way. I would not be surprised if it is all just made up by actors🙂
Guess you missed the purpose of the channel. The idea is to lead you to the starter stories website to join the newsletter and ultimately pay a premium for founder stories and insights. Hence the videos are vague...
Yes but I’m not on youtube for the purpose of window shoping. I’m here for actual insights. Like the DIY for carpenters but for start up business😉 F it.
This is the best channel I have ever seen. I never expected that there was such a channel in the world. Come to middle East, there r alot of successful entrepreneurs stories and no one to tell
Colin's journey from job losses to a million-dollar business is truly inspiring! Emphasizing 'founder-market fit' is a game-changer, ensuring entrepreneurs play to their strengths and passions, leading to more sustainable and satisfying business ventures. 🚀
I love your "not so catchy - I make x million $ / year" videos. I am here for the stories and not the money. I hope it does not get too catchy 🙏 *personal honest opinion
they never mentioned where he found the product. the idea came only after the product was seen. you cant be hunting for the product after you launch the idea... tell us where and how you found the product..
@@vazzy5080 THAT should be the goal.. prove the revenue first. Profits will tag along. BUILD that first product. Sell it first. Get your ass moving, F.i.r.s.t. .. and I am not excluded 😮
Doesnt mean anything by itself? It means and shows you that people are buying and youre going in the right direction. You cant add an Maserati engine in a toyata car right away, you need to learn adjust to the heat on the road to youre destination. You're reaction and also the people who liked this, it says everything about youre perspective and mindset. I mean, this owner is definitly making profit, thats what it means :) Lots of love
he doesn't know he is marketing genius, for him it is not about the product he sell it is about his marketing, he could utilize that a lot more, he could make billions very easily if Allah guided him.
How manny you tube videos i see how to earn 1million then link for storys and you have to pay but for sure all the same guys sit in this manny you tube videos team its all fake.
It's enough to look at your click bait title and first 10 secs of the video to understand that you are a liar. Showing off your total sales as oh I make $1M a month.
For someone whose' tried before and failed w/ something that wasn't a good fit, this is the best breakdown I've seen on how to (step by step) build a solid, functional business properly.
Exactly this is probably the best video on his channel for that
Deepest thanks Matt for an incredible opportunity to learn from Colin. Phenomenal interview and engagement, truly inspirational ❤
Fantastic interview! What a good dude sharing so much knowledge with holding nothing back. Much respect!

how is a marketing agency scam?
@@AzaoMedia Too many course sellers around it
Excellent interview. but where and how does Colin gets the sheets, produces it or buy them ready-made?
Bruh. Sooooo much value packed in this one video it’s insane!!
LOVE this TH-cam channel! Great stories always!
This is literally the BEST business creation advice I've ever seen. Starter Story stories are all great - but this is above and beyond!!
I am like that too, at this point of my life 😢😢😢tired of waiting for a paycheck and so eager to work for myself full time and stay home earning money without having to leave my house
this channel is great!

Such a 💎 of a statement
Absolutely!!
"Find a problem"
that's not what i got from this.
"Marketing" is what i got from this
He positioned a brand for a simple product (bedding) as youthful (quirky, funny, sustainable) and succeeded from that. I guess he solved problems of sustainability/quality, but the brand (and marketing tactics of it) is why the thing was able to succeed
I wish you would have asked him about finding manufacturing and how he develops priducts.
can find a Chinese, just done
Very very easy to find Chinese suppliers
Thank you so much for video! All of your videos have been so inspirational especially the ones involving websites.
Great video. Thanks for the value you provide us!
How did you have such a large email list before launching? Most startup businesses have to slave away at advertising and marketing just to get a few first clients. That was perhaps the biggest key to your initial sales success.
every video is gold. thank you for sharing
We work hard to make sure every video is worth your time!
He engaged with customers directly like the dudes who sold blankets and both are wildly successful
What’s the name of the blanket one?
Excellent all the value in this video. Thanks! 🎉
Thanks for this. Get info in this video. Appreciate it and loving start story interviews!
8:30 oh wow, wow, wow, wow
WOW
Going to start small. Bed sheets is great business model.
Wow Denver is on a roll on this channel, I must be on the next one gotta work hard!
I am best in the world at watching TH-cam startup stories. Is there a business model I can use for this? 😂
Dude! This guy is selling an actual non course thing! When we put you on blast in the comments for not having more vids like this, hit us with links to these vids!

yoo the tips on the brand name!!!!! solid solid solid

thank for bring such stories i am really inspired
This channel should have more subs🔥
so fascinating, how people can actually build an empire. it seems so easy, but I know it takes a lot to get there.
This was so awesome, thank you
That's the old school crowdfunding curve. Now it's 60-70% day 1. I've done $7 million of KS campaigns.

great content as always keep smashing it!
All of these guys seem to be from Denver Colorado
Do I need to move to Colorado to make it? 😅

Way cooooool Brother. Thank you ❤❤❤
How did he get traffic to get email signups? Through ads & social media?
Didn't you watch the video? He says it.
@@GehirnGold_dewhat did he say?
I'm happy to watch his video
Love the content👌
I love a good bedsheet 😊
Does this guy make the sheets or markets for international suppliers?
MY BED ROT SPIRIT ANIMAL!
Thank you bro❤❤❤
thanks for keeping your videos below 20 minutes !
"Intelligence, kindness, and hard work lead to good things" - peak moment of this video: 14:12
It would also be interesting to interview women entrepreneurs ;)
3:17 Harvey is so cute…❤
Did the the thumbnail change improve CTR?
thank you😊
This is me, OMG! Yes I want to sell things from my bed like this, maybe I will see mattress, sheets, comforters all from my bed!!! ❤
Great content as usual
Expect to to tell my story too soon from Nigeria
is he a manufacturer or just selling by rebranding?
The latter. Otherwise we'd hear about a very large employee head count and in the video we'd be touring a factory. It's a marketing business.
So you're telling that this story is fake ?@@sammyb1651
@@sammyb1651on their Indiegogo they mention their manufacturer is in India and that they’ve toured it
I love your "not so catchy - I make x million $ / year" videos.
I am here for the stories and not the money.
I hope it does not get too catchy 🙏
*personal honest opinion
they never mentioned where he found the product. the idea came only after the product was seen. you cant be hunting for the product after you launch the idea... tell us where and how you found the product..
stop with the fucking censoring - you're better than that and cliffhangers are good enough without that artificial suspense
How I can give me a good advice for starting
Thank you for the awesome video as usual.
I love ur content
I make $1M/sec while on the toilet every morning.
WOWZERS...
arc4life
gold 👏
awesome, next ,,,
ma boy
shieeeeet, ffs, I'm jealous now!
Thats the point and nothing more.
The basic colors are horrible so I don't get how this worked?
“make” is gross profit, not gross sales…
the video is quite worthless if you dont give us the profit margin of the business. doing 1M/month in revenue doesnt mean anything by itself.
That’s a little overblown. Inspiration alone is worth something. It’s at least 20%. My guess 30%
build 1M/mo in revenue yourself and then let's see your profit margins
@@vazzy5080 THAT should be the goal.. prove the revenue first. Profits will tag along. BUILD that first product. Sell it first. Get your ass moving, F.i.r.s.t. .. and I am not excluded 😮
@@zunpure The profit should come first. Revenue is a vanity metric. If you prioritise that, your decision making is likely to be misguided

Lots of love
So is he running a dropshipping biz for a sheet supplier?
According to their Indiegogo page they have a manufacturer from India and they hold inventory in-house, not dropship it
good 👆
$1 million a month from bed!?!? Imagine how much he'd make if he got outa bed the lazy git!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Why doesnt' his house reflect that $1M per month manifestation? People making 1M$ per month would be living in a mansion or at least a gorgeous home.
Why does that I’ve to be the case. Not everyone wants to do that
Wow!
Hey brother
How Are you..☺️
40 people who touch the business/day? $1M/month? Jesus. Are these people part of your expenses?
I make 10 million a day from my bathroom
First! And also love what yu're doing here man
Seems like so much is missing from this interview. I’m not sure I believe this one.
Why are you blocking out the important things that the Guy is saying ? That is WACK !
he doesn't know he is marketing genius, for him it is not about the product he sell it is about his marketing, he could utilize that a lot more, he could make billions very easily if Allah guided him.
💯
i still havent found a way to make money since europe is so fucked up region...
They talk everything except where they get thoose product clearly then dont produce. You are buying thoose from china for 30 usd
Their Indiegogo mentions the manufacturer is in India
How manny you tube videos i see how to earn 1million then link for storys and you have to pay but for sure all the same guys sit in this manny you tube videos team its all fake.
