Should I outsource it? Or DIY
Context: One sku, need support for affiliate code tracking, sales/CRM, different modes of payment. Will need a report for third party order fulfillment to pick and pack, and courier the orders. If I outsourced, how much to build it?
Any stories / advice to share on setting up your Shopify stores?

that's the bulk of my thesis on them
yes CRM could theoretically clone them, but i own them too lol

Yeah, I bought a lot of SAAS stock in June and July because they were cheap compared to semiconductors. And now they all have ran so much so they have given me some between 50% to 200% returns each. and now most of them are above fair value but only some of them are at their fair value, such as MSFT, CRM, WDAY, ADBE, INTU. Already sold out of PATH, TEAM, NOW, SAP, ZETA, ESTC, ADBE and INTU bcz of their overvaluation or sustainability issues. And only holding onto MSFT, CRM and WDAY. Simply because they are still slightly below their fair value. But none of those stocks even come close to where semiconductors such as AVGO are trading, AVGO is trading at half the value of the cheapest SAAS stock right now. So no SAAS is definitely not the answer. The closest competitor would be the industrials. But I don’t think even that beats the semiconductor valuations right now.

Hahahaha I’m one of them but luckily I have a very small position and I took a large position in CRM last week. Snow was the play today tho not AVGO lol maybe tomorrow

CRM good results +22%
SNOW good results +22%
AVGO insane results -1%

U sure bro?

Think it runs for a couple of days begore some pullback (same as how CRM did). Probably will hit $380 before an opportunity

CRM puts?

lol I made 4k off CRM last week and $924 today. I got super lucky I sold within 5 minutes of open. Otherwise I’d be negative 2-300

Fvck your CRM calls!

Day 3 of watching CRM trend red pre market just to spike on open. Wtf.

Can CRM sell off? I want in

You’re not entirely wrong. You can’t get discipline through willpower, you need to design it in your system and processes. Kind of like CRM for pilots. But you are the risk in your system so you need to grow yourself into a proper responsible trader. It’s not easy or quick do I can see why you’re so frustrated. And yes it requires more than just reading a book. I help traders with this process but most traders are not ready to grow yet.

CRM was the way to go with leaps last week. Qualcomm looks promising as well

Since July 1st (44days), MSFT had 28 green days (overall +34%), CRM 25 (+65%)
NVDA (+9%) MU (-19%) QQQ (-4%) had more red days than green (about 25) and so did GOOG with 26-18 negative record (-6%)
***why does this matter?***
idk I am just sick of 🍟RDDT🍟 going down, it was red for fucking 28 days and has lost 17%🤡🤡🤡. Thank you for your attention to my bags!
LMAO 🤌

It makes perfect sense to sell all these great companies growing earnings at 30% or more because it’s “September”. And don’t forget to sell your software stocks too because “Iran”. I mean oil prices sure do affect the number of licenses that CRM can sell. And then just buy it back in October right? Surely everyone here will be smart enough to time those dips perfectly.

Mag 7 and value stuff. CRM, unh, Msft, goog, amzn, all great to buy leaps! Not speculative garbage.

How could you all watch CRM, CRWD, NVDA earnings and NOT go with DELL or DLLL

I need CRM to move some more!
