    Crowdfunding campaign using only renderings?

    IDEA 
    Hi everyone, I have an idea for a product and I am interested in hiring an industrial designer to bring it to life through detailed 3D renderings and presentations in various settings. The product is relatively low-tech, but I creating a physical prototype could cost approximately $10,000. I...

    The ideal way to update my WordPress site with heavy upgrades?

    WEB DESIGN 
    Hello, I'm running a WordPress website that has constantly 7-35 visitors on the site. I want to upgrade the theme, have some CSS customizations done, and a new plugin installed. Can you please advise how should the updates be made? 1. Should I create a staging version where all the changes...

    Age old debate: Mac VS Microsoft PC

    HOT! CHAT 
    If you're a business (power) user then there's nothing else than Windows (11). Why? You can snap and arrange multiple windows as you want (and sent custom sizes). You can use the toolbar to create your own, customized menus with software and document shortcuts. You can use portable software...

    How much do you pay per word when the writer does its own research?

    PEOPLE 
    Hello everyone, I run a website, which is getting bigger and bigger. I do all the topic and keyword research and I also prepare the articles for my two writers (I copy/paste bits and pieces from different articles that I like). I occasionally do some writing on my own, which is then proofread...

    Anyone else feel massively stupid after learning self development?

    MINDSET FTE 
    I hope you're not learning from Deepak Chopra's and other similar hacks. :) Just soaking up info and learning about subjects is the best way to go. No need to search for "best selling authors". It's all business and the self-development niche is one of the dirtiest out there.

    A stand for airing out a mattress

    @100k Selling it as a service is a good idea, especially in these times. I actually sold a shitload of ozone generators to hotels, apartment owners, and vehicle service centers. One company in my country even started an ozone sterilization service for cleaning schools. It's believed that ozone...

    A stand for airing out a mattress

    Oh, I'm actually looking to parter up with someone for this project. I have a couple of other successful projects going on, and I'm not sure, if I could tackle this on my own. I only have 4-5 hours per day available at the moment (I'm kind of semi-retired, heh).

    A stand for airing out a mattress

    Yeah, there's a ton of stuff that is not common knowledge, but it should be. One thing that is common knowledge is that many people sleep poorly. And part of the reason for that are unmaintained mattresses - they can actually make you sick (1). A proper mattress maintenance even includes...

    A stand for airing out a mattress

    @RazorCut @ugisozols Mattresses do need to be aired out from time to time (1). It's because only after a year or two, they are full of sweat, germs, bacteria, fungus, and dust mites (2). Even my pillow came with an instruction to air it out at least twice a year (it's a buckwheat pillow...

    A stand for airing out a mattress

    Hi all, I put a lot of effort into keeping my things in a pristine condition for as long as possible. The same applies to my mattress. Mattresses need to be aired out minimally twice a year, optimally four times a year. At the moment, I place my mattress horizontally on the hand rests of my...

    Best service to register a trademark in US (and EU)?

    Thank you for the very useful info. After learning it was a scam, I canceled the LegalZoom service, because I also learned that my domain name should not be in any danger, even if someone trademarks my brand name. It's basically "a first come, first served" type of situation and I didn't...

    Btw, MJ, this turned out to be a scam. :)

    Best service to register a trademark in US (and EU)?

    Hi, thanks for the offer. I actually started an attorney-led trademark registration at LegalZoom ($599 + USPTO fees). I want to sell on Amazon.com, too, so I guess it's best that I get this sorted ASAP. If I have my brand registered in the US only, I can't force anyone else not use by brand...

    Best service to register a trademark in US (and EU)?

    Thanks for replying, MJ. The registrar in question is chinaregistry.org.cn, but the email came from a chinanetworks.org domain. The sender was respectful, and said, that they've received a request from a certain company in China (which seems to be quite big - they are listed on a Chinese stock...

    Best service to register a trademark in US (and EU)?

    Hello, can you please recommend a good service for registering a trademark in US (and possibly in EU)? I want to trademark my brand name. Today, a Chinese domain registrar informed me, that they will register mybrandname.com.cn, mybrandname.cn, mybrandname.net.cn and a few other variants for...
