What's the *hardest* part of owning a 3dp shop?

As the entire reason for this reddit community is mutual help, post what your biggest issue is below, and let's figure out solutions together!

(Curious what others are struggling with. Personally, it's by far the storefront and keeping in one niche)

Is anyone interested in getting a massive list of succesful shops with 3dp products, sorted by niche and size?

Context: As part of my daily work at dapi.digital, I've been doing market research into small and medium shops for the better part of a year. So I've gathered hundreds of shops, with data on their sales and niches. Would that data be useful to anyone else?

Hi everyone, I'm the cofounder of the startup 3DAPI (dapi.digital), a distributed 3D print-on-demand platform. Ask me anything!

Our specialty is setting up shops from all platforms to connect into our manufacturing network, so the end-customers can get products made in the same region, dropping shipping price to about $10 globally, and shipping time to a week.

We've been operating for about a year now, with 10+ main locations, and already positive profit.

Open to all questions and ideas =)
