    Keeping in touch with your network?

    PEOPLE 
    Great suggestions in here already. I'll list out my favorite ways of staying in touch with people. For close friends who aren't in my physical location - scheduling a phone-call every few months when they pop back up into my mind. For close friends & acquaintances who are in my physical...

    As a 24/7 startup entrepreneur, how do you connect with other people?

    PEOPLE 
    What I did to avoid this problem was to surround myself with other young entrepreneurs who were 1) building their businesses and 2) interested in enjoying their life while they do it. I found a house to rent with a friend who was also an entrepreneur, then started asking around to find other...

    How much time do you spend hanging out?

    PEOPLE HOT! 
    The attitude I so commonly see here about how you have to sacrifice your relationships to be successful is the biggest BS I've heard in the entrepreneurial circles. You don't have to do it, and in fact, is counter-productive to creating an amazing business. You know what's the best productivity...

    I feel so alone...

    PEOPLE HOT! 
    Hey man, first things first: Congrats on making the decision on what you DON'T want - to be enrolled in college when it doesn't inspire you. This is a huge step in the entrepreneurial process. I personally went to college, but a lot my entrepreneur friends who now run larger companies either...

    Best Way To Setup A Pre-Order Page????

    Check Celery out: https://www.trycelery.com/ Haven't used it myself, but it accepts pre-orders for your products and might have some landing page options. If you combine this with a page from Themeforest, you could create a pre-order system in a day.

    What is the bestway to surround yourself with a circle of successful people

    PEOPLE 
    Here's what I did: I reached out to a couple people who I followed on the Internet with the intention of just getting to know them. Eventually after developing a relationship with them, I got invited out to visit in their state (halfway across the country). The place I visited happened to be an...

    This. Use a website like https://www.optimizely.com to track 'Goals' to see if people are clicking your Buy Now button, and you'll be able to see statistics on how people are interacting with your site. ALWAYS sell before you create if you have the ability (you aren't actually selling, just...

    When it comes to content-based businesses...

    EXECUTION 
    The barrier to entry comes with knowledge and applied time of yours it takes to create the content. For instance, I've been running a blog for over 8 months and it takes a lot of time to create that content. I grew pretty slowly in the first couple of months, but with some rigorous training on...

    Unique Ebook - how to promote on Amazon?

    Hey glaskon, One of my friends recently launched a Kindle best-seller and his process was to take advantage of the "Download for Free" days that Amazon offers you. Advertise to your friends, to your email list if you have one, use facebook ads, whatever. The goal here is to get people to...

    Hello from Philly (soon to be Boulder, CO)

    Hey everyone, I was recently introduced to the Millionaire Fastlane, and because I liked it so much, I read the entire book in one day. I liked the concepts in that it promotes scalable businesses AND working hard -- something that I didn't get from books like the 4HWW. Anyways, I'm 22 Years...
