    Testing the Market for a Web App

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    The only valid test is reality but since you can't do that until it's built I'd go for the sale and see what happens knowing your conversions should go up as you get screenshots etc. Since you said it is B2B there are other ways to sell this as well. Are you planning to drive traffic any other...

    Give me some ideas to make this idea more effective!

    IDEA 
    Sapporo - is that where the beer is from? Why not be a broker? Build a website that matches (and screens) families willing to take students in and the students themselves. Get the families to pay advertising on your site or get the student's families to pay (benefit to them is the pre-screening).

    Free fastlane idea...

    IDEA 
    I've read that article and I disagree with a great deal of it. Artists are not held captive to submit a sample - they can if they feel it is a good way to market their business and build a portfolio -- they are not held at gunpoint. Also, as discussed I advocate higher end projects so newer...

    Designer Idea

    HOT! IDEA 
    Honestly I am not sure there is a real Need for this. I know businesses need websites but how is what you are doing dramatically different than what is being offered by hundreds of others now? I also don't know that it will be a very easy company to run management wise. I think there will be...

    Free fastlane idea...

    IDEA 
    There are a ton of serious business people that want high quality and would never pay that low for articles. I know the market is there for cheap stuff (I use that stuff in my SEO business) but I think the market needs a higher quality network. I know that there are plenty of writers who would...

    IDEA 
    I know ideas are a dime a dozen but I thought I might throw out an idea that I was going to do but have decided to focus on another instead... -take the crowdsourcing (99designs) model and apply it to the writing world. -clients place orders on the site for writing (ghostwriting, copywriting...

    Testing the Market for a Web App

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    How will you drive traffic to the offer to test it? The problem I see is that even if you get a lot of trial sign ups this in no way indicates how many will convert to a paid subscription. Why don't you go right for the kill and do a fake sale? Can you get enough traffic to make it...

    Life in the fastlane

    I can't read this forum without that song running through my head. Fortunately I like it. I wonder how many here are old enough to know it! I am a great example of making a job for yourself. I quit a high paying sales job to travel and run an SEO 'company'. The business paid for the travel...

    Lawn maintenance company massive expansion

    HOT! 
    You don't need to purchase any competitors, you need to learn marketing. As they say, what got you here won't get you where you want to go. Word of mouth is great but I wouldn't trust it to fastlane a business. What are you really purchasing by purchasing your competitors? Equipment...
