    Need money for my idea

    IDEA 
    Random things to consider: Being an entrepreneur is not about "looking after my idea". It's rather "What is the biggest value I can provide someone using what I have and know NOW?" If you look from this angle - there is never any lack of resources - only lack of ingenuity to give value. What...

    Cold calling Vs Face to Face?

    Phone contact versus face to face is the wrong question. Instead you should ask yourself the following: What kind of value are you giving to those businessman? Are you sure they absolutely need your service? Is there any other place they can get same kind of service? How do you communicate the...

    Gentlemen, there is one thing for sure: if this cryptocurrency actually starts we will be able to sit down, watch and enjoy the biggest marketing campaign in the history of Facebook.

    HOT! INVESTING SOCIAL MEDIA 
    To begin: "team of experts in risk management focused on preventing people from using Calibra for fraudulent purposes" Who decides what is fraudulent? And who decides what it takes to be an expert? What is the prevention mechanism? How the above connects with: "And it's secured by...

    Is it ever possible to work 9-5 as an entrepreneur?

    MINDSET 
    Try thinking where your work goes. Are you working on your business, or maybe you are working in your business? It all depends on your ability to build a self-regulating system. You have to observe your business, acknowledge when and where your interventions go, after that apply wise...

    Figuring out Facebook

    EXECUTION 
    Some excerpts from the last Facebook training I took: Always write down "Facebook" name with a capital letter at the begining. If you do otherwise they can sometimes even block your accounts. Be really careful about the order of steps you take. If you want to have cheaper Facebook ads it's...

    What is the BEST "value" you ever paid for?

    NOTABLE! HOT! EXECUTION CHAT

I know the keys by heart, without thinking about them. Generations of fancy, needless-options-loaded phones passed by. I remember my...

    Think Big, and Then Think Bigger Than That.

    GOLD! 
    If you are saying that you have no hard proof of leadership, go get it. You can always sign up to a charitable organization and tell them that you want to take responsibility for making X.

    Hm... I was once working for a boiler/radiator/general heating company. There I heard a story about a salesman who got himself a hefty bonus for selling a handful of boilers that nobody wanted. He did that by significantly raising the price (of curse he also must have been excellent at direct...

    Would appreciate advice on a business opportunity...

    Is it possible for you to do a calculation? If you already know security business you can say how much you can learn. What will be the value of your time when you shift to garage flooring (even when only managing an unperfect employee)? A: Everything is sitting in emotions of your potencial...
