    To Buy or Not to Buy - That is the Question!?

    Hi all - I am going to get a little personal in the post and would really appreciate some honest feedback. Obviously, at the end of the day - we'll have to do what we'll do - but it would be interesting to hear opinions from fellow business owners and real estate investors. I have run my own...

    Need some help from a web developer

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    So that's a really long answer, short answer ~12 years. It was my "summer job" in high school. For a 70+ page site, I would charge WAY MORE. In high school, I was charging ~$2k for a site. Prices vary now but for a 5 pager I charge ~$12k. However, this includes strategy and video/pics...

    It really depends on the amount of value you are going to be providing, and maybe also what you charged for the upfront. When it comes to websites, in the past I would charge a larger upfront and a similar figure for "basic hosting and minimal upkeep" If you'll be handling SEO (since you're new...

    Now you see why there's competition ;) I will dig through those threads, I agree with you a sale is a sale. The size of it really doesn't matter, it almost always the same process. By the way, since I started asking and focusing on the marketing (about two weeks now) I have closed $13k in the...

    What is your recommendation for lead generation? I'm good with the meetings and selling, it's generating those meetings that's tough for me. I'm fine with putting in the work now to create cash flow to invest in a passive income business. (At some level, we all spend our time working on...

    I've Read The Millionaire Fastlane!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    I've read the book, it definitely made me look at the way I approached entrepreneurship differently. Instead of being fixated on not having a traditional job, I became more fixed on growing a sustainable business. Building a business that can pay your bills, not that exciting. Building one...

    Well.... Here's an update to what's going on. Spent a decent amount of time and invested some money is Church Software creation. The sales cycle and competition was too great and found ourselves constantly shut out to competition due to features and also the length of lead to close and too many...

    Understandable. I have been getting better about contracts, but thus far have had success and really been led in the right direction (word of mouth). I think that the industry is realizing the importance of having a great web presence. In this area now, I will PM you! EXACTLY! Working on this...

    Thank you so much for the reply! I have been thinking about it definitely, and ways to make it passive or very little upfront input through a creation of a product. I am going to be converting my revenue model to monthly recurring, over one-time consulting fees. EDIT: Also just read...

    I left my job about 8 months ago. I am 23, and have been a tech entrepreneur since I was 13. However, college convinced me to sign up to be a drone. Which I did, for a very miserable year and a half. I am doing web design and custom app development work again, and needless to say I have only...
