    My app company

    What kind of app is it, or rather what need does it solve? Just curious, I'm working on a Saas app at the moment.

    Idea, Analysis, and Fear - Auto Assessment

    IDEA 
    Cool, Wish I had this before I wasted $3k on a Talon TSi a while back or $6K last year replacing an abused engine in a WRX STI lol. I have no clue what to look for when it comes to buying performance cars.

    Best place to get feedback for an idea

    IDEA 
    I'm in this idea extracting phase as well. Something that seems to be working for me so far is instead of imposing my ideas on them I ask them to give me ideas.

    Poke Holes on my idea of starting a Managed Service Business

    IDEA 
    I researched the top 20 IT businesses in my local area and all but 3 businesses focused on providing managed services first, consulting second. The business rated #1 was a managed service provider with it's on NOC, that provides consulting on the back end. I'm going to go ahead with this, I can...

    Poke Holes on my idea of starting a Managed Service Business

    IDEA 
    Thanks guys for the replies, I've been doing additional research still. JAJT we would install software or apply a simple open source configuration on the device (SNMP) for management which would do away with needing any hardware on the customers equipment.

    Poke Holes on my idea of starting a Managed Service Business

    IDEA 
    Why did I think of this type of business? I'm currently in the IT field and I've been doing research about various IT businesses that are built around being scalable. The fastest growing businesses I'm seeing in this field are Managed Service Providers which makes a lot of sense and I have an...

    I hope I'm not updating this thread to often... So I made two sales so far ($80) which is right on par on where I want to be to break even within 8 months. I've been brainstorming on how to increase conversion rates as right now it's pretty awful, 143 unique hits and only two sales. I don't...

    EXECUTION 
    Nah, I executed that idea bad from the start. It looked way better than any other Saint Louis directory site but I went in with the thought that I could just throw money at it and other people and all the work would be done for me. I was using some directory platform that was charging $300 a...

    The website made a sale! So far I've been doing a little clean up on the website and basically re-learning SEO and more importantly online marketing. I had to do a little PR on some of the forums as the previous owner didn't respond to customer complaints. I engaged the customers and let them...

    Finally went through and purchased my first website! The transaction is finishing up now, just a few issues with dead webpages since the move that I'm seeing that needs to be addressed by the seller. I'll throw it all out there I'm not too ashamed: I purchased a deal that included 3 websites...

    squeeze pages and growing an email list

    MARKETING 
    I like the text on the left it stands out but to be honest I didn't waste anytime reading the text in the center basically because it didn't stand out. Also I'm use to seeing the "sign-up here" button underneath the text in the center and not having to find the button on the left hand side of...

    I spent 10 hours this week so far if not more reviewing websites for sell on Flippa and evaluating them. I'm learning a lot just from this small amount of time so far and added a few additional things to my criteria: 1. Check the seller's profile! Very important, while not all members sell more...

    a n00b needs help starting with consulting

    HOT! 
    Looks like the well known sites have a hard to find page on their website were they kind of walk the consumer on what may work for them. It doesn't look like they're really monetizing it any way from my quick and dirty research. Just bought a domain name related to this just now because it's...

    HOT! 
    Hmm this is giving me an idea, I would imagine you would have to make a specific website for each geographical location and setup the relationships with the local dealers. The run of the mill dealerships doesn't serve much further than the metro area where I live. In contrast I'm sure our local...
