    Website idea: Hair salon appointments - opinions and advice?

    IDEA 
    There is actually already something like this online for individual salons. A salon or dentist office, or whomever service-oriented business, can purchase a software or software service that a patron can go online to schedule instead of calling the business to schedule. It's definitely the...

    Must have for any business...

    Yep, did that. Sold the business in exchange for a percentage of the buyer's income for a certain time period. It worked out well.

    Do you have a business card? No, I'm all out.

    I completely agree. At the beginning of my business, people thought I was crazy for not having a business card and by people, I mean my fellow colleagues. If I met a client, however, I would just give them my email address and we would be off doing business immediately. If they didn't have...

    Must have for any business...

    I began as a Realtor in 2003, started off right away with six figures and working 80 hours a week. I began writing down everything I do in a day in 15-minute increments, then was able to categorize these into general action items. By doing this, I was able to delegate all the "paperwork"...

    Black Friday

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    At least you're thinking along the right lines. Clearly the demand is there for a Black Friday. Now...how to profit...

    Any advice? Thinking of opening up a B&M food business.

    I think everyone here can relate with that, ha! I watch the "Restaurant Impossible" show a lot as I'm really into learning about the food business (but no desire to start a restaurant due to the impossible hours) and one of the most common mistakes restaurants make is not creating an identity...

    Stop and move on or take on the competition?

    No matter how much competition, if you have a Unique Selling Point, you can be better. That's Marketing101. Branding is key.

    MLM or Network Marketing Schemes, Cringe, and More

    GOLD! HOT! 
    Nope, Negative Nancy is the label I've always given to anyone who is a pessemist. Usually people with this attitude get depressed a lot and don't trust other people. Because I'm the opposite, it's hard for me to understand people like that. I prefer a smile every day. You're seeing through...

    MLM or Network Marketing Schemes, Cringe, and More

    GOLD! HOT! 
    That is simply not true. I'll bet the people that purchased their product found value. You named some great companies, like Avon for example who have repeat buyers. Clearly, these buyers are finding value in what they're purchasing as they keep coming back for more. As far as "mediocre...

    New to the Forum - I went from Fastlane to Slowlane

    SLOWLANE 
    Yes, I agree, but the problem is that I'm a big planner with no action until I can see the whole plan in my head or on paper. Since this route hasn't worked for me in the past, I thought I'd try something different, start the action while brainstorming ideas. Gotta start somewhere, so I...

    Any advice? Thinking of opening up a B&M food business.

    I think the bigger question is whether or not people want a "weird food" menu. Do they really? Is this really such a unique concept? I'm skeptical.

    Just Quit.

    Ohhh, I love it, yay! I especially like the part where you know that taking care of yourself is important, "I'm also going to get fit." People who sit at their desks for long periods have no idea how detrimental it is to their health until they try to do something active. Yeah, all you need...

    GOLD! HOT! 
    I don't think the book is something you have to "believe" in. I think it's picking out the points that ring true to what you think you can achiever. The main point I got was to focus on the process and not focus on a single event. Stop thinking selfishly about making a million dollars and...
