Bart Verboven: Crystals, Covid and being an Entrepreneur
In this episode Bart shares his story of crystals, covid and being an entrepreneur.
We hear how Bart had a childhood interest that was resparked when he was in Romania and wanted to buy a meteorite from the states. Being the thinking person that he is he realized if he brought a couple more smaller meteorites he could sell them online and make back his shipping costs. After that Bart started to look for a niche, first with amber and then the business grew as he and his partner paid attention to what people wanted to buy and provided that opportunity for them.
To me, Bart's story is unabridged because he was able to take things he has learned and apply them to interests he has and create a viable income (even if people didn’t think it was possible when first proposed).
Bart shares with us some tips about how to turn an interest into an income. He suggests Social Media is a good option to become known by but that it is a game of patience. He says to do your research and stay at the front of where people are looking for what you are selling. Bart also touches upon the idea that as well as being able to tell a good story to sell you product it is also very important to listen to your customers, that way you learn what they need and you can provide that. You can’t sell what people are not willing to buy.
