Starting an Ecommerce Business Changed My Life | Tips and Tricks 

Goosebumps at the end, that was beautiful. Great job man 💪

Honestly subscribed here because of the video you made for Andy Schrock and didn't expect much other than skateboarding. But with content like this John, you have truly inspired me to conduct my life in a more organized manner. Also, watching these videos serves as proof that someone with a full and busy life can truly love what they do and have fun doing it. Watching your videos and seeing your smile puts a big smile on my face too, Thanks John!

Seeing this after having been subbed for about 5 months or so (and having just bought a pd shirt last night), truly makes me feel safe to be able to come home and have this source of inspiration. Finding men that strive daily to accomplish broad goals to make positive impacts re-instills my faith in humanity as well as myself! I love knowing there are others out there who share similar hopes and passions, hope to come across you one of these days to thank you for all you do my boi. P.s. Keep doing you dawg

John you rock! Such a good man. Helping others is what it is all about, that is great motivation there.

Not a boring blog at all, super inspirational and really well filmed and edited, you're channel is growing fast, I'm exited for that and for this new brand! Keep it up!

Been thinking about starting up an apparel line for motorcycle based designs. Theres a few out there already but I have some really unique designs already done. Just a matter of getting the equipment to make the physical product. I just love the idea of being able to create my own schedule to be able to work really early in the day and then have plenty of time to ride and actually LIVE rather than just work all the time. Love the videos man, your positivity is really uplifting especially on days where I'm just straight up dead tired and need a little motivation. So thanks!

This channel is quickly becoming my favorite on RU-vid. Definitely inspiring! I'm trying to create my own clothing brand and you have motivated me a ton!

awesome man - so much about your early predictions of a sucky vlog haha. not only have you and the braille guys gotten me back into skating, i am also in the process of setting up a couple side businesses for reasons very similar to yours. it is great to see other members of the yt community as a whole sharing these behind the scenes parts of this lifestyle and the philosophy behind it, helping others attain greater freedom. keep on rocking man!

Thanks for answering my question about "why don't you buy wholesale" That makes a lot of sense

Thanks john! You are such an inspiration and your videos and vibrant passion & energy motivates me so much

Great video! Success in this business really is all about mindset and taking action. Looks like you are a hard working dude and it is paying off!

I love your videos, I really enjoy watching people be productive!

Yeah i've been binge watching some of you blogs and props man! You are definitely someone to look up to!

I started my own brand, it isn't much I made stickers and I wasn't really hyped as I thought I was. After watching your vid John I'm more motivated to do whatever it takes to make it what I want and what others want.

Thanks for the all of the packed and valuable information John... It was a pleasure watching you .... Keep up the AWESOME job.... Congrats on all of your ACCOMPLISHMENTS !!

Another awesome day in the life of John Hill. You're a really cool guy, and you seem like an incredibly hard worker and a person who goes all out in what ever endeavor you are focused on. Real interested in the new brand you're starting, hope it's successful and that you're able to help people in the way that your hoping to.

Thank you every much!!!!! Watching this kept my motivation levels up. 👍👍👍👍👍

Loved you explaining what goes into a business and how the process works, not a lot of people share that guidelines/tips here on RU-vid. I've been wanting to start my own business on t-shirt printing but never really knew the whole process and behind the scenes of it all. Thanks for sharing, its was very intresting!

You are a very inspirational person, and I dont get inspired easily. So you're definitely doing something right.

I used to see you skate all the time at Owens field and it's really cool to see you doing so well in California and on RU-vid. Thanks for all the inspiration!

I can see potential in you being a youtuber, and also I found the vlog to be both entertaining and informative. Great job and keep it up!

Dang I subscribed to see skating but as I kept watching u John I just formed like a bond with this channel. It's really has the grind don't stop motive and it's really enjoying to watch and it's really motivational. Good job John!

Thanks for all the info made the video a different pace. Also can't wait for this new company so hyped!!! Ps you have a back flipper behind you in the end hahahaha

super insperational vlog! I got a lot more productive since watching you. making a to-do list really helped getting of my butt and using my day to the fullest. thank you

Great attitude John, you are inspiring, keep up the great work!

This is such an inspiring video and it’s just what I needed! You’re terrific! Thank you!

I just came here from your video about your new business and it's so cool to see how far you've come. I've been thinking about starting an online business but kind of been putting it off because it seemed overwhelming, but what you said in your other video about making a list of goals and steps and how just doing things one step at time got you to your bigger goals is really helpful and inspiring. Also I like how you talked about your youtube family in both of the videos, not sure if you did that on purpose. Keep up the awesome work man, you are helping people just by sharing yourself with the world :)

Agreed on the Sunday front. Great day for emails!!

Im amazed how fast your channel grows and this is the first video I've ever watched 😇 I have no Idea what certain amount of subscribers and I subscribed you

I do believe this is my favorite video you've posted. It's not too often, that people actually explain and show the steps they have taken to get where they want. Too much, I hear things like, "just don't give up", and "all you have to do is work for it". As goes with the saying. A lot of things are easier said than done, and I've found if you don't know where the staircase is. Not many people will show you. Not only in this vodeo do you show us where the staircase is. You also remind us to hold the safety rail, if people paid attention. Thank you for never being anything other than yourself.

Great Video!! I never understand the dislike when someone is sharing something Great that can Help others! Keep Being TRUE To YOU!! Thanks or Sharing!!

You are very inspiring John and you make me want to go skate everyday, when I watch your videos I think "damn I want to live like he does" thank you John.

It has been a daily habit for me to watch your daily VLOGs, it's really awesome finding a person that lives a simple life and shares it with the whole world. Keep it up, John. I'm watching you.

I heat press clothes too! Mostly shirts but sometimes a baby onesie gets thrown into the mix. I would love to start my own business and make my own stuff with your same idea in mind of helping others. This video was very insightful. Thanks :)

Even though there wasn't any skating in this day in the life, is was one of the most inspirational and well made one yet! Thank you John Hill.

Great video! In my own opinion this video was not at all boring. Super inspirational, by the way your life is exactly how I want mine to be.

your doing good dude! There is a reason why you have 0 dislikes.

I came back 5 years later to rewatch this one. Why, because this is what brought me to the channel. And I see him going through this process again with his art channel. The hustle and work ethic is was got my attention in the first place. Now Progress Daily is a living thing and he helped his friends with PD Park and videos. Interested to see how the PD, Skateboarding, and the Art grow together.

Awesome it wasn't boring at all. Matter a fact I'd love to see you go threw your steps on organizing your products and getting prepared to ship with labels. Your new subscriber TCW

You're so inspiring! I love watching you tell us about your business I find that very interesting. Keep up the lifestyle you are living, you're a good dude!

I've seen like two videos and I'm such a fan already, you deserve so much more subscribers dude ;D

Another great video! Starting your own ecommerce business you can not only through the Amazon. I think that it is very important to choose the best ecommerce platform because this affects the success of your business.

Another great video! Try to watch them every day! Good work man!👌

I know I'm a bit late in commenting on this video but I have to say John, I enjoy the informative bits that individuals have to share. I'm 18 and recently graduated hs last year and am looking into starting my own businesses and I'm inspired by the work you do and following your dreams. Take care Much love from AR

You are such an inspirational dude, keep it up man I love you channel.

Just saw this after watching you recently. And you are a beast Man. I wish I had a tenth of your mentality

you always hype me up to skate and enjoy life!

THE PD LOGO IN THE CORNER!!! I love it John, inspires me so much to be the best version of myself!!!

Hey John, again and again just wanna let you know that you are such an inspiration to me. I am tired of being a slave to a company that doesn't inspire me. I want to start working for my self and building my dream life. Just like you do for many, I want to help and inspire others to follow their dreams as well. Can you please please give me any advice on how to start my own business and working towards something I am passionate about. I will appreciate anything I can get. Thank you John for your continuous dedication and hard work. You are amazing.

Hey man me and my friend are working towards starting a film page and company. This video was SUPER helpful and motivating. Really glad I looked back and found this video!

Wow what a great guy! I currently work for a small business in the hardware industry as the ecommerce guy and this inspired me to do something on my own hopefully someday. Thanks for the inspiration and keep doing what you’re doing bro!

Thank you so much for making this video! It’s helped me so much.

You are the man, John!

Awesome video dude

I wish you could make more of these videos, I'm going into eCommerce as well. I like how you're the same age as me and the video production is on the low end, which equals more trust for me then the other channels I've seen. If you're not into making more of these videos, could you please point me into the direction that has a similar feel as yours? Thanks!

Great video! I'd love to see more.

Hey man this is very kewl love this channel so fun - but this episode really inspired me to get some things happening. Amazon is opening warehouses in Australia this year so hoping to do my own side business.

WOW! very interesting and informative video...the best ever ...Thanks for inspiring us@

Dude I love you, and your editing keep it up up the good work and i shall keep watching every day haha

Thank you for this John!

Longbeach rules but DANG THAT TRAFFIC

Thanks for the tips and I enjoyed watching this video :)

Love it. I'm basically at the starting point in your path, where I'm currently creating a business, which I'm not particular passionate about, but want to use as a semi passive income to fuel my other projects, where my passion lies. Hope to also get it done like you have and transition into doing the thing I love. Btw why is your baby shop now offline, only started recently watching your videos?

I have been selling my food business products online for nearly 11 years and it has been a huge success but like all success, it does take time. Great videos and always up for learning all the time. Liked and subscribed appreciate the info ! Would like to do a one on one talking about the Amazon Gourmet food space there is not that many people talking about the food category on Amazon and private label ? we currently have 40 items in this space on FBA and have had great success.

Great video. Subscribed. Keep pursuing your dreams
