    Intermittent fasting

    HOT! 
    I am doing IF as well. Although I started at the from the paleo angle when my gallbladder gave up and I had to clean up the food. Then I found the leangains-site and shifted from paleo to whatever I want that my lack of gallbladder can handle. For those of you that are trying it out and have a...

    Hiring SEO specialist

    MARKETING 
    How much SEO work have you done by yourself? I do not think you should go out and hire someone if you do not know what they are supposed to fix. If you have not done so; evaluate your site's SEO with free tools that are available. Also I would suggest a trial account on SEOMoz since they have...

    First Speedway Post - Time to start an acutal company brand :)

    SPEEDWAY 
    Good progress Dezzamondo, keep learning. Unfortunatly I am not to fond of the logo either. I get a feeling of unbalance when I look at it, but the arrow concept is always good. And since I like to draw logo concepts I gave your arrow concept a try and I will attach two examples. Nothing fancy...

    Proof that execution is more important than the idea

    IDEA 
    I read an old post by Derek Sievers last week that sums ideas and execution really good, I think. Read it: Ideas are just a multiplier of execution - Carl-Erik

    How to make more sales with your business website

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    As I see it you do not need to fill the entire block with "information". Keep it clean, with focus on the button and some complementary copy. You can do just one big a$$ button or you can work the button in with some nice micro-copy. As always I am much better at actually drawing it up rather...

    I'm good at Sportsinvestment, but my capital is too low

    HOT! 
    I think you should focus on getting the site 110% finished before you start to think to much about getting visitors. When you have that covered you can start chasing visitors and work on A/B-testing. A good read regarding launching a site is the original marketing plan for mint.com from 2007...

    How to make more sales with your business website

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    No problem Brian, I will attach an example I drew up in Axure real quick. What I was talking about in my previous post is the fact that most users will not see your entire webpage if it grows with testimonials and such. With that your opt-in and buy now-button in the top disappears if the...

    How to make more sales with your business website

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I am not Jusaentrpreneur, but I will give you a tip. Do not forget to have value in the bottom of the page if you have the user scroll for testimonials and such. Just tweak the buy now button and opt-in to a one line block that serves as an end to the page. - Carl-Erik

    Name suggestions for brewery start-up???

    HOT! 
    If you are doing a local micro-brewery I think you should keep the local connection; it is always like try local brands. And works much better if your business scales. With that in mind my suggestion would be to keep Austin, if that is where you are starting up, and add brewery, brews or...

    Best country to start an online business in?

    Tjenare stolpioni. A quick tip is to get hold of an accounting firm or similar that has experience with this. Your idea is good, but you actually have to live in Panama for 180 days per year, so bump that month up to 3-4, in order to please Skatteverket. I have had similar plans on how to...

    Destination; Future - The clerk progress

    EXECUTION 
    Progress update #1 Alright. First progress update, a lot of things to cover. I was actually planning on writing this as a blog but my 10 posts did not qualify me, or the create post-button is trapped by the cache in my browsers. Any way. I am all signed up and ready to rumble in the...
