So many people think you have to have thousands of dollars to start your own business. But it’s simply not true.
"#canwin This weekend I mailed 45 orders! That's a new record for me!
I just wanted to say to anyone who is feeling frustrated, hang in there! And you don't hae to have some type of original amazing "new" product. I sell rubber ducks!
I began trying to sell a little bit beginning last July but started getting serious about online selling at the beginning of this year. Did I mention that I'm "just" selling rubber ducks?!
I've made a TON of mistakes, but I learn a little bit more each time!
Keep moving forward and waddle on, friends!"

"Jumped on here to share my #canwin.
The first photo is on April 4 of this year and the second is from today!
This summer, life has been so busy! This past week we moved. This week however I also just passsd the mark of 2,054 stickers sold!
We had to celebrate with a photo (it took several days to find my counter buried in boxes)
Most of these sales were wholesale orders from me talking to some small business and a visitors center. In April I wanted to hit 1000 stickers. I’m having a hard time believing I was able to do that, let alone double it!
My new goal is 5,000 stickers by the end of the year. So glad I kicked fear in the teeth and kept making those small steps. So incredibly grateful for everyone’s support and encouragement in this group! 💕 "

"#canwin to date I have sold 15 items on FB Marketplace, 24 items on eBay, 7 items at a holiday boutique.
I am still in the process of getting my Shopify store done, this has been a great experience to prepare me for Shopify.
I have only been selling things I had around the house, homemade items, and repurposed items. I have not sold the product that I want to list on Shopify. I hope everyone can see my vision as clear as I do. I am excited for my future."

Two years ago, faced with the pandemic and the responsibility of my autistic son, I aimed to sell inspirational items to uplift souls, resonating with my transition from a corporate role to a full-time caregiver. Yet, budgets made that vision challenging.
"Sooooo excited! So my first deal with Jane last weekend i only got 9 orders. I spoke with someone from Jane who suggested a lower price but increase shipping just a little. I resubmitted with a lower price and new photos and they scheduled my deal for Cyber Monday!!!!!!!!! I have a good feeling about it this time around 😁😁😁 like Alison says if it doesn't work the first time fix it and do it again! #BecauseICan"

"Holy smokes! This weekend was bananas! My husband was out of the country for work for the past two weeks. My kids were super sick, and I was starting to question all my life choices. But I did it! It didn't look exactly how I planned but that's ok. When looking at my analytics today I realized I have shipped over 400 orders this month, MOST of which were from this weekend! I'm not doing anything crazy, just found something that works and I'm running it over and over and over again! #canwin"

In the face of life's toughest moments, I found solace in colors and humor. That's how Genevieve and Claire, shortened to Gen and Claire, came to life. My journey into print-on-demand shirts was less about business and more about healing, transforming my graphic design hobby into a personal mission.
"I just had to share my first #canwin! I finally gave up on having my idealistic "perfect" launch. I was spending way too much time trying to learn how to make wix work, writing perfect descriptions, and getting pricing perfect. I gave up, made a Squarespace simple website on Wednesday night, told a few people at work Thursday, and made a post on my IG yesterday. I've already started making sales! If anyone else is putting off because they want perfection... don't do it! Take the leap!"

"I want to share a #canwin. There was a local pitch competition in my community and I hesitantly participated. It was VERY out of my comfort zone.
Because of Alison Prince and this program I felt very confident in my business. Unfortunately my public speaking skills are lacking. But I did it anyway.
I had 3 minutes to pitch my business. I focused on my ideal customer whom I call "Susan," what problem I would solve for her, how I market, and what I would use the money for.
The absolute best part was when I left the room and had 2 women follow me to the hall. They said, "Hi, I'm SUSAN!" :) Then they bought a bulk order of candles.
I won 10,000 dollars to use in my business.
This was the most stressful thing I've EVER done. The lesson I learned was to put yourself out there. Get seen, try new things. I've grown so much from this experience.

Crafting special Easter baskets is my jam. I mean, Easter's magic, right? And with a lively bunch of six kiddos, I needed a business that would let me be "mom" without missing a beat. That's where e-commerce stepped in.
"#canwin Today I hit $1,000. Between Shopify and Spouse-ly (like Etsy for military spouses).
I made a deal with my kids that we would go on a weekend trip when we hit this milestone, so I guess we better get packing!"

"I gotta say, I just love this group! It’s one of the few groups I belong to where others do not criticize or bash one for asking questions. Everyone is constantly learning and at different stages of their journey. NONE of us knew everything at the start. Thank you all for being so helpful, kind, and considerate."

Our journey began 17 years ago, quite modestly with just 300 hand-signed letters. While the profit was slim and the hours long, my husband saw potential. Over the years, we refined our processes and even tapped into automation. But it was my desire to help my friend from Brazil, living in poverty, to study English in America that truly set our business alight. The challenge? Raising $10,000 to sponsor her, despite living paycheck to paycheck.
"Thank you for this class. I have tried many things and the honest, straightforward instruction is really amazing. I feel like I can do something with this. Thank you Alison and team! ❤️"

"You guys!! First of all I'm shouting from the roof tops #CANWIN!!! Less than 24 hours and I'm almost SOLD OUT! I need to go on a supply run after my 9-5 and make more inventory! I don't even own a Cricut but may just go buy one as hand cutting these is not efficient!"

My sister and I initially signed up for Alison's 0-100K program, eager to find a way to work from home while juggling our duties as moms. We had our fair share of trial and error, but with dedication and Alison's guidance, we successfully carved out our niche.
"I had my #canwin first sale since joining the course 7 weeks ago.
I have had my shop since October so had sales prior but wanted to wait until my first sale happened using techniques i've learned in this course.
Along with my sale, came my first negative review! I can honestly say because of the training and modules I was able to compartmentalize it, say to myself, "Now my first negative review is out of the way," and do my happy dance instead for my magical sale!

"I DID IT!!! I got my LLC done yesterday and working on my Shopify store today!! This is something I have been trying to do for 20 years. Alison's program is LIFE CHANGING! Not sure how to do everything but just doing it! Faith over Fear right?!! Onward and upward!!"

"Today I celebrate a #canwin
I contemplated purchasing this course for over 2 years. It sounded too good to be true….
Then in June of this year I took a huge leap of faith and bought the marketplace intensive course.
It’s been 6.5 long hard weeks studying, stressing, waking up early, going to bed late… but today I woke up to not one, not two, but 3 exciting emails!!!
Accepted to Jane.
Accepted to Pick your Plum.
And my VERY FIRST sell on Facebook Marketplace 😭😭😭😭 today was a good day. It’s worth it, keep pressing on 💛 I know I will! #becauseican "

Back in February, I jumped into e-commerce, thinking, "Hey, I've got a laser and real estate's hot right now. Let’s make some fancy boards for realtors!" Well... turned out, my heart wasn’t feeling the fancy board vibe. Tried my hand at pens and leather notebooks next. Fun? Yes. My passion? Nah.
Enter August and bam! Huckleberry Gems' DIY kits happened. Took a shot at a few platforms and what do you know? They ALL welcomed me. So much for all the whispers about it being a hard nut to crack!
"I did my first craft fair this weekend and I sold 15 items. I did not get upset. I just learned things I need to do different next time. #canwin #becauseican"

"Just wanted to share a #canwin! My business is moving but it has felt like such a sloooow process with so much trial and error. I was so focused on hitting a certain milestone that I didn't step back and really look at what I had already accomplished. Last week I saw a number in my store that was MORE than what I was bringing in for an ENTIRE MONTH working 40 hours a week! 1 weeks worth of revenue in Shopify was more than what I was paid for working 160 HOURS!
This doesn't happen every week (yet) but I found some things that are working and a lot of it was actually from some POD designs! I do have a graphic design background so I'm going to try to dig into the POD thing and see what happens next. Happy 4th quarter! Let's do this!"
-Erin R., 0-100k Member
"I have been doing this awhile and have almost given up a few times! But I keep coming back to it. I always used get discouraged when I see posts where people hit 100k so quick. It made me sad because I knew I wasn’t giving it my all so I honestly took some time away from the group. But have slowly crept back in lately and got back on the horse... Thank you Alison Prince, for giving us the tools to make out dreams come true! Thanks Julie for being a rockstar! Thank you to some of my friends who I met through this program who are always so encouraging! Alice, Mae, Kati, Calinda, ♥️ y’all!! #canwin #becauseican #becauseicanfam"

If you had told me years ago, when I was assisting my amazing mother-in-law, Jill, in her blog that I'd someday be diving deep into e-commerce, I’d have probably chuckled. I've worn a ton of hats over the years – from managing emails to studio cleanups. Yet, here I am, years later, not just selling essential oils, but also creating home products and, believe it or not, an anti-aging skincare line tailored for our cherished women over 50!
"Hello & happy December! I have a #canwin / accountability post today. If I type it out, there's a better chance of me sticking to it. Haha! So November was the highest monthly sales EVER for our business with the most packages I have EVER shipped in a month - hello 900+ shipped packages from my garage- so crazy! Praise God for growth!! So now it's December and my brain says let's get ready to descend... BUT I listened to a podcast yesterday that challenged my thought. She opened saying she sees lots of business owners shrink back in the month of December but it can still be the best month of the year! So, I am tired, but I am not done so I'm going to TRY and beat my November!!! I didn't even think I could beat my October and November surprised me. Even if it doesn't happen in December, I'm going to give it my all and push into the hard thing!! Who's with me?"

Weekend #canwin.
I sold 400 stickers over the weekend while attending my kids lacrosse game, movie night with my family, seeing friends, grocery shopping, taking a nap, etc. Ya know... weekend stuff. :) Didn't have to clock in anywhere - it was the weekend - Made sales and money while I was sleeping. CHA-CHING!!!!

"Hi everyone! I joined Alison last year and I’m finally taking the plunge. I am ready to live my #becauseican life. I took advice and looked around my house and found items to sell. Today someone bought it and I feel I can do this! I’m excited to see what I can accomplish!"
-Jessica S., 0-100K Member
"#canwin: I made my first sale this week and could have cried. This whole venture has been a practice in just saying YES in spite of fear, trusting that God will work it out as I do the work😊. I feel foolish and imperfect all the time but just keep going #becauseican. Thankful for this group and all the wisdom and positive encouragement. Next up for me, contacting influencers. 😬
One thing at a time, one idea at a time, one tweak at a time. You can do it!"

"Wooohoooooo! My first Etsy sale! #canwin Foraged hemlock pine cones and a few other natural items for someone’s fairy garden or nature play area. Foraged hemlock cones!!
This Etsy sale is small but it’s a WIN in many ways. I don’t have many things in my Etsy shop and that’s okay because I’m taking the slow and steady route. For me, and maybe also for you, it’s a marathon and not a sprint.
I‘ve been busy testing my own product ideas, selling on my Shopify, FB marketplace, EBay, Poshmark, and Nextdoor. I created one digital print and am working on more (with only 2 sales so far and that’s ok). I’m binging on Alison’s podcasts when I drive around town and when I cook dinner. I feel like Alison J Prince or her amazing guests are talking directly to me every time I listen because the nuggets and take aways are always SO timely and applicable with some part of my business.
I’ve been growing my subscribers and now have 38 email subscribers. What in the world?! #canwin #becauseican
I’ve been selling things from around the house and building my online community. A micro micro influencer nearby has given me a shout out on their Insta which has given a small boost to my followers.
Keep chipping away because this system works and I’m so pumped for what the future holds!"

"#canwin Yesterday I got out of my comfort zone and cold called 4 stores that I thought should carry my merch. (I design and sell NCAA licensed merch that I want to get into college campus stores). I had already emailed all of these stores months ago with no response, but who knows if the emails went to their junk or if they even went to the account of the right person. Out of the 4 stores, I got to talk directly to 2 buyers - 1 agreed to take a look at some free samples and the other just went ahead and placed a $600 wholesale order!
Making these calls was sooo uncomfortable for this introvert, but it took less than an hour of calling, talking, and following up with emails and I made $600. That's a pretty good return on 1 hour of work!
I guess fortune does favor the brave!"

“I've got to share my journey with Alison's course. Working in Utah's largest ER during COVID – and especially after when many just up and quit – I was utterly burnt out. Overwhelmed doesn’t even begin to cover it. I needed a new direction. We already ran a service business, so e-commerce intrigued me. After a bit of dabbling and some well-intentioned advice from a family member, I landed on Alison’s course. I began with the five-day sprint and then progressed to the Marketplace Intensive. Talk about eye-opening!

"#canwin A little late posting this, but over the holidays I hit 50k!
Then last week I reached one of my 3 big goals from the start of the program: I used the money from my business to take my family to Disneyland!
When I first started, this was one of my "dream big even if it doesn't feel possible" type of goals. I can't even believe it you guys.
I started with no business experience and no idea what to sell! I followed the steps, aimed for C+ and kept going.
Praising God for Alison's help, and the support of this group.
Now, on to the next goal!

“After 30 years in corporate marketing, I was tired of lining someone else's pockets. My dream? A business with my husband – reaping the fruits of our labor and spending precious moments with our kids. Yet, the transition was harder than expected.

Anyone have a room in their house they despise? You know, the “catch all” room, the one with ugly paint & old carpet? The one you wish had a door on, so you didn’t have to see it anymore?! Well, I had one too...up until July 2018 when this course found me & I made it my Money Making Room & used that income to create a room I absolutely LOVEEE! I say this course found me because I was a SAHM, who was in a routine funk & losing her purpose. I was scrolling FB one day when I came across this course when I laughed and said, “No way! I can’t do that!” I had ZERO marketing/business/sales experience. I couldn’t even sell a second shoe to someone. Lol (that just made me laugh, but it’s true) a few days later, #becauseicanclan clan drop ended up in my email and I told myself, well there’s my sign. So, I joined that day & then told my husband when he got home from work. 😂 (I don’t condone doing it in that order!)
Fast forward to October when I made the personal goal of hitting $10k by the end of the year. I know what you’re thinking, yeah right! Hitting that goal in 5 months cannot be done.. & YOURE RIGHT, it couldn’t....by December 31st we had not hit $10k, but exceeded it.
I know I may sound like a broken record in this group, but guys, IT’S WITHIN REACH & I want to help you all get there too! Thank You Alison Prince for this life changing opportunity💕
Our new goal is to join the 50 grand clan by Summer!

"Doing a happy dance!! 💃 Thank you, Alison Prince for inspiring and teaching us all!! I love how organized and easy to follow this program is!
I joined from the October 5 day sprint to find your perfect product (5 months ago) and started an ecomm store with my sister. I’m a stay at home mom with four kids ages 5,3,2,9 months and she works full time from home and has two kids 7 and 1 (lotsssss of chaos and energy haha). We have learned a lot, made some mistakes, and are finally settling in to a good rhythm!
We just wanted to start a hobby and now after joining 0-$100k we are on our way to make big plans for our families! #becauseican #clanwin
Thank you for letting me be a part of this awesome super positive and encouraging group!! If you are just starting - don’t stop!!! Gooooooo!!! There is so much ahead of you!"

When I discovered Alison, I was on a mission to elevate my online retail game. Though I had a good grip on wholesale, my aim was to truly connect with my retail customers, to understand their needs and serve them better. Alison's 0-100K program was a game-changer.

"Y’all! 🤩🙌🏻🙏🏻
I just secured my first local wholesaler! 🤯
God is so good! AAAANNNNDD They offer Zip Code Exclusivity! I am in a bit of excited shock! It’s happening NOW!
Praise God! Thank you Alison Prince and team!
#IAmNext! #WeAreNext #BecauseICan
Side Note Y’all! I’m new, going through the Marketplace Intensive, don’t even have my LLc approved or a site! But I reached out because I LOVE this company and told them all the honest points of being new, preparing to start business, applied for LLC and they said YES!
So DON’T WAIT! Just ask!

"2 weeks before Christmas my husband unexpectedly lost his job. His old company also made sure that we wouldn’t be able to get any unemployment either. What has been my little “side hustle” the last couple of years has quickly turned into our main and ONLY source of income. With 5 kids and 2 dogs I knew I had to up my game . . . ! 🙌🏼 Thank goodness for all my little coworkers too who helped get orders out! If I would have been in this situation a couple years ago I would have been filled with so much anxiety and worry! But today I am filled with knowledge, empowerment and peace. Why? #becauseican.
And as a side note, the 5 day sprint has been amazing! I am super excited for the future! 💪🏻”

“As the founder of Sew Kids, I was on the hunt for a program that could truly elevate my business. That's when I encountered Alison J. Prince and her 0-100K program. Right from the start, I was astounded by the wealth of information presented. It genuinely felt like diving into a treasure trove of e-commerce knowledge. The phrase "value for money" doesn't even begin to cover it!

My first deal went live on JANE this week, and I already have sold 39 items! 🤯 (This was inventory I have been sitting on for 6 months!!!!)
When I saw the first sale come through I was standing in my kitchen making breakfast for my girls, and I just started tearing up.
I had stated before that I have held onto my business dream for 4 years before finding the 0-100k system & what Allison teaches.
I teared up because I knew — my life will never be the same from here on out. The combination of learning from my previous mistakes, determination to not give up when every odd was against me, and now having the 0-100k system with the tools & community— I feel unstoppable.
One day I will share some more of our story because I know it will help so many, but for now I’m celebrating! So thankful for all of you & this community! 🎉 #canwin #becauseican

"FOLLOW Alison’s Launch Plan!!! It’s like no other! I had this brand new felt book custom made for my shop and as always, followed Alison PrinceLaunch plan….we did a countdown & recommended joining out email list, launched to our email friends last Tuesday with a bonus discount just for them for 24 hrs, then live on social media on Wed and SOLD OUT by Friday!!!!! It was so exciting!!!! We shared an email earlier this week and this was the photo of my daughter & me that we used and a local customer’s review.
Other companies in my genre never put new items on sale when they launch and it makes no sense to me. Our margins allow it. The excitement and feeling of being honored by getting a special deal from the start especially VIP honoring our email subscribers, and the excitement of the deal and new product, and only 1-3 day sale is what we have consistently done thanks to Alison and it is so effective! The countdown too is necessary! #canwin

"Can we take a moment to celebrate Alison Prince and team? I joined a little over 5 years ago when there were about 3K members in this group. We are now over 13K!!! I've seen some of the hard work Alison & team put into this group and programs to help us be successful and way more goes on behind the scenes! Alison n' team always encourage us so please share in the comments one teaching or action that has really impacted your business/life so we can let them know their hard work makes a difference!"
-Dawn M. A., 0-100K Member
Nancy E.
Well said Dawn!!! I agree and this tribe of 13k is so supportive; you are one big example of that! Thanks ❤️
Becky F.
There are a few things that helped me. One is K.I.S.S. Keep it simple sweetheart another is if you don’t post it can’t sell so get out there and put those offers out there. You can sell just about anything online if you post for people to see and remember C+ sells!
❤️ Thank you Alison Prince and the whole team!
Lacy W.
Yes!! It’s obvious how genuine Alison and the team are and how much they sincerely want us to succeed. No surprise to me that the group continues to grow!!
Dawn M. A.
One key moment was Alison's weekly live just as things began shutting down in 2020...she said "stores are closing but laptops are open". I went on to have my first major seller. Key take away--don't be discouraged by what is going on around you, find the opportunities. There are ALWAYS opportunities.
Launched my site last night at 11p. And already starting to make sales..woot! I still have a lot of tweaking to do, and I had to get written permission to use supplier photos on many things until I have time to replace them with my own photos, but didn't want to miss Q4! So happy to be following this course, it is amazing! Thank you, Alison Prince and team!
-Jennifer M. F., 0-100K Member
Hello all. I was overjoyed when I realized I hit huge milestone this weekend after joining in Feb and formally launching April/May. I am sharing here because in reality I have nowhere else to share it but here… Most of my family still does not know that I have ventured into the e-commerce world and neither do the majority of my friends and definitely not my 9-5 work friends. I LOVE having this community of support and people who share ideas, successes, trials and triumphs!!!
I have learned so much in #NextLevel #NextLevel2.0 and I cannot express enough how much doing the little things (not always the exciting things) each day consistently over and over can add up over time. Also being willing to pivot. Where I started is not where I’m at now. But I’ve twisted and moved and twisted and moved in small pivots along the way.
I absolutely adore this group I am so thankful to Alison Prince for developing her 0-100k system.....but it’s not just the system that creates success… its the community...it’s the support of all of you… the support of the coaches… the mindset Alison Prince reminds us to keep- a mindset of resiliency! Also do not underestimate the support and mentorship of Alison Prince on an ONGOING basis. I mean she created such a wonderful program but did not stop there for us .... Alison pours her heart into it consistently on a weekly basis (whether a post, encouragement or podcast)! It’s not just a money making avenue to her you can tell it’s her passion! You can see her teachers heart shining through. Her true desire for her people, her students, her class to be successful and going to the ends of the earth to see us reach that success and the potential she knows we have. I am an educator and I see her teachers heart shine through in this program and I truly believe I would not have the success that I have had this quickly in any other program.
You guys we are truly #blessed to be here and to have this resource...finding the right program and people to share community with I truly believe has been a big secret to success and I am beyond blessed!!! #becauseican #NextLevel #grateful #canwin #allthingspossible
-Alexis S., 0-100K and Next Level Member
"Alison, thanks for the T-Shirt! It's such a great visual reminder that I'm not alone in my 'Because I Can' journey.
While I'm still figuring out how to drive traffic and convert views to sales through my Etsy shop and setting up Shopify, I continue to list items that I'm not using.
Today I sold a Louet Hatbox Spinning Wheel through Ravelry! Sale #3 with net 20%. The customer even came and picked it up!
