    Needs to be said... sell the DAMN motorcycle.

    HOT! RANT 
    Wow you guys are a bunch of pansies. What is the point of life if you cant enjoy it? The joy that comes from riding , IMO, so far outweighs the risk (assuming the below), it's not even a close comparison. And I have never been in a cage that I enjoyed driving anywhere close to any...

    How to Build Trust?

    MARKETING 
    As I said in the original post, I am not collecting, transmitting, or in anyway directly connected to that personal data. But they need to trust me enough that Im not sending them to a spoofed website or anything.

    How to Build Trust?

    MARKETING 
    I've already built the webpage. It still needs more work, but I ask the question because I'd like to bake any (for lack of a better word) "trust factors" into the webpage.

    How to Build Trust?

    MARKETING 
    Without saying what Im generating leads for, it would be similar to if I was generating leads from Car Insurance companies. They call you to quote you for a policy, and part of the application process is giving your SSN. So, THAT kind of info. Of course, all Im asking for is contact info.

    How to Build Trust?

    MARKETING 
    I have an idea to potentially generate income. I would generate traffic via Facebook ads. It would be a pretty typical sales funnel that would end with them providing their info, or possibly clicking a referral link. Then, if it was their info, I could generate leads from that traffic...

    Anyone Have Experience With LASIK Eye Surgery?

    HEALTH 
    My wife got it. Dont bother paying extra for the laser cut vs the blade cut. It's not really better, and causes a lot more pain.

    Horsetrading?

    SIDE HUSTLE WEB DESIGN 
    Mostly I want to get some experience building sites. In the short term, if I can get something for my efforts, that's icing in the cake. Then if I like it and I'm good at it I can start trying to build it into a real business. Especially in my local area, half the businesses don't...

    Horsetrading?

    SIDE HUSTLE WEB DESIGN 
    So Im a "software developer" (technically more in mgmt than in the trenches these days, but I digress) and Im considering doing some web design as a side hustle. I'd like to get started building a portfolio with small, static pages for small local businesses - places like auto repair shops...

    What problems do you have on a daily basis?

    HOT! 
    Hmm. . . 1) Im super forgetful. ie. Take the garbage out because the garbage man comes the following morning, and I forget to take up the can. 2) I want to work remotely (and from a technical standpoint I could), but my employer wont let me because they're scared of remoting. 3) I have...

    Should I worry about getting crushed?

    Implementing the 'easy option' will help me to move toward the audacious idea, so nothing is lost.

    Should I worry about getting crushed?

    Ok, thanks for the feedback guys. I'll not worry myself with the "what if's", and get something done. I'll put the big site on the back burner, focus on lead generation for the short (and possibly long) term, and see where that goes.

    Should I worry about getting crushed?

    Fair concern and question. Can I start cheaper? Yes. I can greatly simplify the plan, making it straight lead generation. But this week, no. I have to build the business list before I can start giving them leads. It's not a local thing and not as easy as looking in the phone book...

    Should I worry about getting crushed?

    So I have an idea that I believe is really good, viable, and helps people. It is something I would use, and I believe many other people would be interested in using. Of course, I dont want to say what that is, but it would save people $, and time. Let's just say I create a website with this...

    Need HELP! Found a geographical arbitrage opportunity, now what?

    There's a guy who did this in my area. It's just natural spring water from his property, but he started bottling it and now private labels it to Kroger.

    My conversion rate sucks. Can I ask for advice?

    HOT! MARKETING 
    Just a quick update: While Im not finished yet, I have the major work done on my new website. [ www.Spartanleathers.com/new/ ] Once I get some final CSS issues worked out I'll publish it as my main page. I think the design is a lot cleaner than the last. In the meantime Im running a 3 day...
