My biggest problem with clothing, is the process work, doing all the measurements and everything related to getting good pictures. Takes a lot of time, Amazon on the other hand is super fast but I don't have the right inventory most of the time for it.
My other issue is I'm just working out of two 10x 20 storage units so I can't really hire someone to do all my process work.
I started this biz just to give me road money for my travels and it just becomes more and more work... lol I really didn't even want it to be as big as it is now..

I know what you mean about it getting too big.
I bought my first storage unit just out of curiosity. I paid $100 for it and I made $400 profit. Six months later I had shit stacked everywhere, I had bought a truck and I was looking for a place to lease that I could work out of. I got to the point where I had a ton of stuff that doesn't really sell well online, but does sell at things like garage sales so I started looking into getting a retail space. I ended up hurting my back and during that time I got back into doing adult online stuff (I was taking a break from it before) and realized that this was a lot easier that sweating my ass off all day while dealing with other people's junk.
