    Take it: Six-figure local service opportunity (Better than copywriting!)

    HOT! IDEA EXECUTION 
    In my plumbing apprenticeship we drilled through stuff like porcelain and quartz. Use a diamond bit. Buy several, and get somebody to pour water on it while it drills. You will burn through bits quite rapidly. That shit is hard.

    Take it: Six-figure local service opportunity (Better than copywriting!)

    HOT! IDEA EXECUTION 
    My first sales job was for a company called Pristine Solutions. They were a bit slimy, but they made BIG money selling these systems. Here's how: They got kids to drop off flyers at neighborhood houses offering a free "special" showerhead if the homeowner listened to one of our presentations...

    Question: Validity of a SMMA in 2024

    HOT! SLOWLANE SOCIAL MEDIA 
    You haven't REALLY done any work. 20 calls is F*ck all. Make 100 calls every day for a week. Work on your sales script. Work on your offer. Learn how to offer more. Remember, your customers are BUSY. They are running businesses. Running ads, especially if they don't know how to do it, is...

    Question: Validity of a SMMA in 2024

    HOT! SLOWLANE SOCIAL MEDIA 
    Your first problem is that you want to approach it as a 'generic' model. This is what makes you just another "me too" agency. As the market becomes saturated, business owners (your potential clients) will increasingly seek out those services that appear catered to them. This is why seasoned...

    ChatGPT AI is a huge breakthrough, a Google killer

    - AI - 
    Its been trained to mimic human speech while using logic. While it *can* do things like write copy, I found that it writes the same generic shitty copy that makes up the bulk of advertising. It does structure a sales letter properly though. It's not a great story teller, either. What it excels...

    How to let go of the past

    MINDSET 
    I'll be 30 in about a week and a half. One thing that you have to accept is that you're always going to miss opportunities. It's in the nature of things. If you focus on one thing, that means saying no to 10,000 others. There's really no point in dwelling on it. If you are, its probably because...

    How I hacked my dopamine to train and reward desired work behaviors and halt procrastination

    HOT! MINDSET 
    It works great for short periods of time, and it makes me feel better about the work. I decided that today Im going to test it out with a longer period of time (80 mins) because I want to get into a flow state, which apparently takes up to 20 minutes of uninterrupted work to get into. So I want...

    19 Years Old - Building First SaaS

    SAAS / APPS EXECUTION 
    Great work. If I were you, I'd think carefully about what kind of brand you want to build. It's a pretty cool service, though when you compare with other companies you make yourself sound very "me too". Two books you might wanna check out are "Start with Why" by Simon Sinek and "100M Offers"...

    How I hacked my dopamine to train and reward desired work behaviors and halt procrastination

    HOT! MINDSET 
    @Bekit I read this thread 3 years ago when you first wrote it and it kind of stuck with me, but I never implemented it. At this point in time I'm having a lot of trouble focusing on a project right now even though I have a ton of free time. My procrastination is ridiculous - when I pull myself...

    Its probably not the nicotine that is addictive so much as the cue-response-reward that is smoking, which also delivers MAOIs that are pleasurable and addictive

    What if you already know enough?

    NOTABLE! 
    I finally understood this recently after letting it stop me for years. "Learn by doing" ought to be the entrepreneur's education philosophy

    Am I sitting on a goldmine?

    My aunt and her husband have a ton of apple trees. About 1000 probably. We were having drinks with his sister one day after I built their new house on the property talking about how to monetize them. Her idea was the best I think: packaged apple pie mixes. Chop fruit, mix with whatever else...
