    How do you get traffic to your newly published website without any budget for publishing ads

    MARKETING 
    Thanks for the unfiltered criticism.. I thought the website made it clear that I'm just there to edit their resumes, applications, theses, etc. That would be what is in it for them. If I have to switch some words around to hone that in, I can certainly do that. The business cards are fairly to...

    Social Media Destroys Entrepreneurs. Grow Your Business Without It.

    HOT! RANT 
    I had the same experience when I was working as a DJ when taking a break from my career a couple years ago. A fellow "entrepreneur" suggested I make an FB page, deliver tons of content like music reviews, photos, and mixtapes, and after 4-5 months of that, absolutely nothing came of it. I even...

    How do you get traffic to your newly published website without any budget for publishing ads

    MARKETING 
    I was literally about to ask this forum the same exact question. Want to tear my F*cking hair out. I have: - built a very nice, 1-page website clean with Wix (paying yearly) - with an email directly attached to the site - advertised it with posters all over multiple college campuses ($50+) -...

    Have you ever used a freelancing copywriting site?

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    This has been my experience as well, sadly. Even though they have good reviews (which means even the clients have shit taste), and their advertisements or examples they show off look great, the product they actually give you is lackluster by nature - they expect you to just accept it and not bug...

    Business Ideas in Non-Congested Markets

    IDEA 
    I recently tried buying some pharmaceutical product from the UK. Priced at 8 pounds. Shipping was nearly 50 pounds. I feel ya right now. But hey, prescription medication could be it - you'd just have to learn a lot of the laws in each country. For some reason, USA is against topical ibuprofen...

    Ice vending machines

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    I wonder if there are any other products that could be vended other than ice? What about oil, bulk coffee, or tools/accessories? It's still a neat idea and good enough of a niche..

    Done with China. New life in San Francisco. [intro]

    INTRO 
    This is absolutely my route and I'm glad you've affirmed it. Don't want to piss away money that I earned from that soul-sucking country. Particularly since I'm not familiar with legal taxonomy or the local laws of the city I'm about to move to (I just learned what "Pro Se" means). This will...

    Done with China. New life in San Francisco. [intro]

    INTRO 
    Hah, you are certainly in the know. Fortunately, they are only going after tutoring agencies, while I was working for actual international high schools / colleges. So the crackdown had no affect on me, but Shenzhen was grating on my nerves, and there's only so much mental anguish I could handle...

    Done with China. New life in San Francisco. [intro]

    INTRO 
    Aloha folks ~ 33-year old, born in Chicago, got a couple degrees in Engineering from top ranked universities. Lived and nerded out in various cities across the Pacific. Remained broke as hell until 28, when teaching Physics / Engineering became a viable option in Shenzhen (and still is!). Now...
