    Ask Me Anything About SaaS ( I'm building my 7th )

    GOLD! HOT! SAAS / APPS 
    I’d be trying riskier business ideas, with higher risk/reward. Mostly SaaS businesses.

    Ask Me Anything About SaaS ( I'm building my 7th )

    GOLD! HOT! SAAS / APPS 
    That is yet another great thread. I think instinctively we do some of that, but it’s good to be intentional about it. Over the past day I went through the other thread and started to do the work. It’ll take some time though because greed clouds true desires a bit. However, with that said, it’s...

    Ask Me Anything About SaaS ( I'm building my 7th )

    GOLD! HOT! SAAS / APPS 
    I do have a question. First, thanks for keeping up this amazing thread. I have been on the SaaS journey for a few years and an mid-late 30s. I have two successes and one exit. After the exit, I am more tired and in doubt than usual. I have had some high ticket job offers and I’ve turned them...

    Post Exit - What to do?

    MINDSET 
    I start or buy companies, grow them and often sell them. 1/4th of the time I succeed. In this case, I’ve succeeded and I’m exhausted and the tank is empty. I am a software developer so I can focus on higher multiple businesses.

    Post Exit - What to do?

    MINDSET 
    I want to start or acquire something and sell it for 10 times this amount on the next market upswing in 4-5 years. What thing do I want to do? Still not 100% certain.

    Post Exit - What to do?

    MINDSET 
    Tomorrow I’ll be signing away my company as it is the final day of the acquisition process. The sale is not life changing, but it makes it so I don’t “have” to work again and can live comfortably off interest. This is not my first acquisition but it’s the largest. I have an earn out period...

    Unsexy Choose Your Own Adventure

    EXECUTION 
    We cull well, and close well. 50-100 cold calls per day type people. We tend to sit at a desk too often and aren't handy though.

    Unsexy Choose Your Own Adventure

    EXECUTION 
    We kind of tried that for 30 days. Perhaps we should continue. We chose a manufacturing niche and found that it was difficult dealing with unions.

    Unsexy Choose Your Own Adventure

    EXECUTION 
    Inspired by the Unsexy Businesses thread that I've read through a few times. I have a team and am wondering if anyone here has an idea they would like to see play out. I have no shortage of ideas, but I thought this would be cool content. I've read too many WallStreetBets YOLO threads over the...

    Technical advisor in optics - small story

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    I co-own an optics company dabbling in certain tech that you'd be interested in...and I concur. It's such a niche that you should consider billing more. Think of the value they received. They likely would have paid $1,000/hr if it was structured as a project. Since we're in such similar...

    Hello from a 15 years old guy :D

    INTRO 
    Levin, I’m on your side. I had a similar path. I ended with three years of University, but I did leave school for awhile at 16. What did I learn? High school was unimportant and University was only good to prove to myself that I could do it. I could have left after a year with the same...

    The Poor Man I Cant get a job: Flipping Stuff Log

    HOT! SIDE HUSTLE 
    Holy crap... you’re such a complainer. You’re clearly not going to get handed your perfect job in your secretive niche. Get a minimum wage job then and stop with the “poor man” garbage. You’re also not going to get handed free shit to resell. Homeowners are smarter than that. You’ve got to...

    Two app ideas, how to put into motion?

    IDEA 
    Prototype your ideas as quickly as possible. Weeks or even days, not months. You can do it if you set your mind to it; this is corny but true. As for the Fastenal idea, my company happens to work with them at the corporate IT/Operations level. So I would be interested. Send over an NDA and the...
