Detailed Image Kicking Ass
Although I've primarily been focusing on SportsLizard on the blog lately, it's worth noting that my Pure Adapt partners have been kicking ass and Detailed Image is exploding in sales - to the point where Mike is now spending the majority of his time working with George and Greg, and the revenue can almost support the company as a whole on it's own.
It's a little weird because now I'm the odd man out - doing some SEO work and working on SL - while they work on DI. But it takes a little pressure off me in the sense that I can grow SL the right way and not feel pressed to see results immediately. A lot has changed on the site (new site design, changing ad models, the price guide, etc) and I only have so many hours in a day, so it's going to take some time. I feel that as long as I cover my salary with SEO and other side jobs, I can take as long as is necessary on SL.
I've been getting emails from people telling me how, with the price guide, SportsLizard is just absolutely amazing and is helping them sell their stuff, get their collectibles news, find out what their items are worth, etc. I probably have received an email a day like this since launching the price guide, and (again) it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside because the CUSTOMERS are starting to fall in love with what I'm doing, which to me means I'm on the right track.
Couple that with the support of my partners who would slap me upside the head if I was f*cking up, and overall I feel good. Oh man, I'm good at getting off topic. Anyway -congrats to DI, their growth is a testament to my partners hard work and dedication, and I'm excited to see us challenge the market leaders in an industry I know absolutely nothing about :)
