    What payment gateway is most fair and reliable for paying international freelancers?

    EXECUTION 
    As I begin to scale my US-based business (animation), I'm hiring international artists to work on projects. Does anyone have a good experience with a payment system for international freelancers that has felt inexpensive, reliable, and mostly world-wide? It feels like I have to figure...

    $168Mil in 20 Months | Amazing Fastlane Success Story

    MARKETING 
    As mentioned earlier, be careful not to simply create a "job" for yourself. I was an indie game developer in the days of Flash (and eventually Unity). Game development was challenging, rewarding work and pressed many of my brain's buttons with art, code, concept, etc. But after making a whopping...

    Speaking of Hypercolor (I had one of those shirts) I always though someone needed to invent the "hyper-diaper", which has something that changes color on the outside when it's wet on the inside.

    NOTABLE! HOT! IDEA 
    My wife has an Etsy greeting card business (Ink Drop Design). I'll have to pitch the idea to her and get her take. Even greeting cards that were regular + braille could maybe be a thing that appeals to family that has a blind member.

    Age old debate: Mac VS Microsoft PC

    HOT! CHAT 
    I had been on mac for 20+ years (Mac Quadra 660AV). Two years ago, due to prices of the new "cheese-grater" mac, I switched to PC. (I also felt like their support heart is no longer in it for pro users like me. They're pretty focused on iPhone) I'd say I've been 80% happy with both. They...

    How to structure an email subscription-based business?

    Ok. Let me make this simpler: 1) I'm building a subscription email service. Who is using a recurring payments system they like? Bonus points if you have a paid subscription email service you like. There's a lot of options, and with my newness to the whole thing, I'd love to run in the...

    How to structure an email subscription-based business?

    I'm starting a subscription-based product that will be delivered as an email to subscribers. Can you guys help point me in the right direction for learning about web/email/payment and fulfillment? Option 1: Free subscription. Put in your email, get occasional free content. This serves as the...

    Harsh Reality vs Pursuing Your Dreams

    NOTABLE! HOT! MINDSET 
    I like this perspective. It's also important for us to distinguish between "success" as we define it, and "the most successful person at it sitting on Conan". A lot of times we use extreme success examples (Musk), but that kind of outstanding success isn't necessary for us to consider...

    His sarcasm is saying that doing everything "right" is no guarantee, and the advice from successful people is likely horribly near-sighted. We're terrible at identifying when we got a random or inherent leg up--mistakenly thinking others will have a similar experience.* 1) Learn to be...

    Or what about the pen-n-ink drawing equivalent of those fantastical hyper-real photoshop works? I'm thinking fairies-waking-up-from-dark-bogs-touching-brooding-dragons-snouts or sci-fi-ringworld-retro-dystopian-city-with-too-many-swag-hung-electrical-cords (that one would no doubt ship with a...

    Love it. And, for those of you visual people, it even comes as a nicely done YouTube animation: View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dKz095P7LdU

    I think that's a great idea. If I were trying to evaluate it, I'd put these pieces together: -- The qualities you see that the market is still buying -- Avoiding the qualities that are fading (adult coloring therapy books maybe?) -- A visual subject that is largely untapped in coloring books...

    I agree. I can't remember who said it but they said most entrepreneur failure is in EXECUTION (Maybe Seth Godin in The Dip). While we certainly can fail at our actions, more likely we simply fail to move forward. We (often implicitly) decide it's not worth our time or money to continue to work...

    NOTABLE! HOT! MINDSET 
    It's hard to answer that without knowing what your product is. If it's a very oversaturated market as you say, I don't think you need to fear others stealing your idea at this point. And, if you're truly bringing your own unique value to it, all the better. No one can take your special...
