Hi Jake!
I would recommend you reading this guide: https://www.x-cart.com/sell-online.html. It has chapters about Amazon, eBay, and Etsy. I hope after reading these posts it'll be easier for you to make this decision.
Wish you all the best!
Hi!
You can use a coupon or use UTM.
10-15% is enough as for me.
Also I suggest you reading this blog: https://www.x-cart.com/instagram/influencer-marketing.html. Hope it helps.
I find it interesting how all your rebuttals start with personal attacks. that said, there have been many, many social networks come and go in the last 20 years (only half of which I recognize, even though at some point they were in the top 10). Also, here are 27 options for payment processing and that is just the largest ones off the front page of "evil google". There are countless small local companies operating across the US (check local listings for accurate referrals).

With regards to the third panel. That is what the elections were for and according to the current laws, it wasn't even close. Counting the total votes Trump received accounts for less than 30% of voting age Americans and the segments involved in Parler or the attacks on Congress are one or more orders of magnitude smaller than that (one could hope).
I've got so many success stories! More than reading them I love creating the stories as usually there's some personal story behind a business and it also gives a feeling that everything is real: https://www.x-cart.com/success-stories
X-Cart is an open-source shopping cart software that gracefully handles large product catalogs while still keeping your store fast: https://www.x-cart.com/

These are good suggestions. I hope you'll enjoy the new place.
I've got something for you, too: https://www.x-cart.com/sell-online/what-to-sell.html This guide tells you how to find a product, but it also can be applied to finding new business.
$7000 for a Shopify/woo-commerce website is obviously not worth it.
You can go custom with an advanced eCommerce platform from IXXO or XCart
you would have a custom template made just for you and have ANY customization you want, which I don't think you will ever need extra customization since their platforms have all the basic features included.
If you chose one of their ready to go templates you would have money to spare too.
Shopify seems cheap but it can become very costly...

Hello there! I've got a post that will help you: https://www.x-cart.com/sell-online/what-to-sell.html
There are several ways describing the way you might find what you need.
Feel free to ask me anything related to the topic.
Hi! Consider the cost: https://www.x-cart.com/sell-online/how-to-sell-on-amazon.html. ANd compare how much it will be for your business on Amazon VS ecommerce store.
Hello! There're huge Influencers on Instagram, too. The difference is in the price. And sometimes smaller influencers bring bigger value. You can read about it here: https://www.x-cart.com/instagram/influencer-marketing.html
As an alternative, try YouTube influencers. But that might be pretty expensive. ANd effective, of course.
Your wife's works are so sweet and pretty!
First, define what your product will be and where people like to see such pictures (t-shirts, stickers came to my mind first). You should do a research. Here's an example of how you do it: https://www.x-cart.com/sell-online/what-to-sell.html
Also try Pinterest and probably photo stocks.
Hello there!
You can ask for a post and/or a story. First, you should send samples, that's for sure. Try reading this piece: https://www.x-cart.com/instagram/influencer-marketing.html. It's about influencer marketing.

Hi, u/goldenjaguar11
I'd recommend you reading this post: https://www.x-cart.com/blog/start-online-store/, the part about business models. There are some options you might find perfect for you.
I work in eCommerce and I think you can try it. The point is that Christmas will be in a year, so probably it's not the best time to do it now? Anyway, I'd recommend you reading this: https://www.x-cart.com/sell-online/how-to-sell-on-amazon.html. Hope you find your answer there.
X-Cart MultiVendor version

I think it's as close as you're going to get. :)

Hi!
You can do it yourself, sure. It's much cheaper and the skill will be helpful in the future.
https://www.x-cart.com/blog/product-photography-guide.html - here's the guide on product photography for entrepreneurs.
Hi!
I admire you - you have a great income and you still wanna improve your life.
Pinterest is a great place to sell, your business perfectly suits Pinterest and the buyers there. And yeah, if you have 230,000 monthly impressions, why not to try? You won't really lose anything.
Here's the guide that I think might be helpful: https://www.x-cart.com/sell-online/how-to-sell-on-pinterest.html
And some good demographics news is that there are already 40% of men on Pinterest. And the number is only growing.
I'd look at launching a MultiVendor Marketplace site of your own. For instance, you can launch one on X-Cart v5. The license is around $1,500. https://www.x-cart.com/multivendor.html . Then you need to integrate your designs, etc. The harder part will be attracting sellers and buyers, but I can't imagine that a marketplace with an existing following would sell for anywhere near as low as $1k to $10k. By building it yourself, at least you'll know what you're getting yourself into.
