I made them $20,000 in one week.

That’s 5 figures.

This retail trading card shop made $20,000 per month from eBay and in-store sales beforehand.

‎‎‎

So, let me explain myself again.

I doubled the monthly revenue of a retail trading card shop with my software development and marketing skills.

Here’s Proof.

‎‎

But what was my reward for that work?

A few thousand dollars for upfront labor spread over four months. Then, $100 per month.

Something just felt off for me…

Most importantly, Rent Was Due Soon.

It increased a few months ago on a day’s notice.

And I couldn’t afford it.

‎‎

So, let me explain myself again.

It’s not just that I made these people over $20,000. Nor that I had been working for these people in fast food at $13 per hour.‎‎
