Nope! Consumerism is at an all time high and isn't expected to be on the decline anytime soon. The amount of goods Amazon moves is astounding. Remember, while the vast majority is sold to the US, because we just cant get enough apparently, they sell a huge amount internationally.

I was looking through Helium, which is a popular product reference tool that i like the best just due to the user friendly nature of it. (Link below for a free trial, which I recommend, and using my link is a fantastic way to help me keep passing on knowledge to the world) While using Helium, I found a person who was just selling a desk fan, and making over $15,000 per month! Yeah there are over head expenses but it's safe to say he'd take home around 33% of that, and with that just being one product (I'm sure they list others) I'd say he's doing alright. Most interesting thing about that particular product, there was no competition. He was the only option for that particular fan. If someone came in with a similar fan, undercut him by $1, and just waited, you could easily pull $14,000 in a month. Though that'd be really mean and it's better to make friends in this business than it is to just go around terrorizing other hardworking people, but still.

Yes.  That’s the bare bones simple answer.  Its the best way to freely advertise your brand. Which by the way, if you haven’t established what you are about and gotten a firm hold on what your brand is, both in name and function, stop what you’re doing and get it figured out.  The brand is the only way to build the following and the following is the only way to make any real money online.  Sure you can sell one or two of whatever it is you have a passion for, but unless you are pulling in people by the hundreds to thousands, you’ll never be able to sit financially comfortable in this field.  

Don’t be intimidated by creating a YouTube channel.  I know the thought of being on camera is terrifying for some people, myself included initially. But come up with a strategy that works for you.  Some people prefer to do voice over videos with a soothing stock video playing while they do.  Some people even see success using robo-voice assistants. Doesn’t matter.  I just very strongly recommend you create a channel that is inline with your brand, and make an initial plan to create 20 videos in 30 days.  They won’t be great, and you won’t get a lot of views most likely.  But you will get the experience and the comfort of being in front of a camera.  It’s not so bad once you get used to it.  For myself, I decided that i would never edit a video and I would just shoot the whole clip in one go.  This has been working for me, because I don’t have to over analyze the video, and full honesty, I sometimes don’t watch it until after it uploaded so I don’t lose my nerve.  I can already tell that I want to start editing, but that’s a new urge.  Only developed after I felt like I had a good feel for just the basics of even uploading a video.  Which I assure you took more time than I thought it would.
