Look at this freaking guy right here. This guy makes 15 grand a month building custom garage shelves and selling them exclusively on Facebook Marketplace. Here's exactly how you can copy him. So he was making five grand a month doing this part time, borrowing his neighbor's truck and delivering on the weekends. And then one day he said, hey babe, I think we could make a lot of money doing this if I quit my job. So he did and he tripled his income. Here are the details. He sells these shelves for $770 and he pays $200 for materials. All he needs is a chop saw from Home Depot and some screws. I just spent an hour talking to him. These shelves are way too big to ship, so anyone in any local market could build and sell them for the same prices locally. Where does he get his customers? Where does he get his cheaper materials?
