PERSONALIZE YOUR KINDLE

Amazing but true

SMART PEOPLE DON'T DO BUSINESS LIKE THIS....         

W.Columbia, SC   Local entrepreneur and Internet mogul, ( i.e.: middle aged man with a sewing machine), Frank Nichols, offers advice on how not to do business. 

According to Mr. Nichols, he indicates " I really don't have a business, have no intention of starting a business, and find it very difficult convincing others that this is not a real job."  He further stated that " I simply enjoy having a creative outlet so I make a few Kindle covers."

Inquiring reporter: It's reported that you get scores of emails per day regarding everything sold out.

Frank: Most emails are inquiry's on how to order when the product is sold out.  I also get a lot of heat for not taking back orders.

Inquiring reporter: Those sound like reasonable questions.  I'm even a bit perplexed as to why you would decline unlimited back orders, that's like money in the bank.

Frank: As strange as it may seem, money is far from my motivation for making Kindle covers, evidenced by the limited number produced and sold at reasonable price.  I have no desire to make and sell thousands at a time as it would be not only impossible but I would have to sacrifice the pride in my work. 

Inquiring reporter: Well how do I order if the product indicates sold out?

Frank: It really means sold out.  Unlike a real business, I only post products that are complete and ready to ship.  Although it might mean far less sales, it provides a stress free outlet and creative freedom.  Although I could make and sell 100 Black Dragonfly covers, I have the freedom to decide to make lizards if the notion strikes or go for a motorcycle ride in lieu of sewing.

Inquiring reporter: I agree, this is a strange way to run a business.  A normal person with a popular product would try to capitalize on the opportunity.  Perhaps your model should be used in business school as an example on how to not do business.

Frank: I agree
