These are all good points. The wholesaler seems pretty established, I've seen their products listed on large, real company websites. The issue I could have is someone orders something from me and it's actually out of stock on the supplier side as someone else has bought the last one. I'll figure that out if it happens.

I'm expecting people to see ads before they see the URL, so they'll see the logo with LXIX in it then see the URL. I hope that makes it seem less spammy. I get what you mean though, most junk URLs are just a random string of letters.

Thanks for the tip on Model Mayhem as well. That's exactly what I need right now. I need assets of real people wearing the clothes, especially videos. I can edit those into ads that will grab a lot more attention if done right.

I'll try find some 20 year old girls to show the website to as well. The main thing I want to check is if they'd wear the items, and trust the website from seeing it in an Instagram or Tiktok ad to convert to a sale.

Nice. If you can get fancy you could also include at least one bigger girl so customers can see what it might look like on them and see immediately that it’s got their size.

So many things only have straight sizes

Some of the products have a larger woman modelling them, but she has the same tan and hair as the other woman. She just looks like a larger version of the other model.

If I reach out to people to model the items myself I'll just want anyone that can wear them in their own style. Body shape doesn't really matter, as long as they can show how versatile this stuff can be.
