    Need someone to evaluate accounting software for me - VA? Where to hire?

    I would start by watching some YouTube videos that have already covered this topic a million times over. After that, if I still wasn't clear, I'd call the company(ies) I'm considering and speak with a sales rep who can answer all of my questions for free.

    Pick a market where you have a unique interest/value/opportunity, then team up with Elon and let him add the word "Space" to whatever you're doing. Space rentals Space knives Space beer SpaceSex :cool:

    Lex's Digital/Physical Product Group Accountability Thread

    EXECUTION 
    To speed up sales on Etsy, you need more traffic to your store. Increasing your ad spend will bring more people to your store. Likewise, adding more products that target different keywords will also bring more traffic. Those are the two main ways outside of investing time in SEO and social media...

    Utah has the Wasatch front range. The peaks often disappear into the clouds at elevations around 9-12k feet. When I was in the Army, we jumped out of C-130s at 2k to 5k feet. Tandem/freefall skydives are 10k to 15k feet. When I first saw the Wasatch mountains, I tried to imagine Mount Everest...

    Lex's Digital/Physical Product Group Accountability Thread

    EXECUTION 
    There are a lot of ideas that *might* work to market products and services. My process already is working, so there's no need to add in the X factor of social media for now. I have little interest in spending time or effort on any social media outlets outside of YouTube for the immediate future.

    Lex's Digital/Physical Product Group Accountability Thread

    EXECUTION 
    I send an email once a week that shares some of the newest products on the site and links back to each one. The only discount is if a customer has previously purchased the main digital product. Those customers get a standard 20% discount, but they have to input a code at checkout to use it.

    EXECUTION 
    Sales Good news for April. As we approach mid-month, I've surpassed last month's total sales. Currently sitting at $1,035.81. I really hope to reach $2,000 this month. Repeat Business For physical products, I'm noticing that those who have purchased in the past are quick to return when I list...

    EXECUTION 
    Sales The 3 sales that brought me close to $600 in the last post were cancelled last minute, but sales have climbed back up to $650. I'm still running $10/day in ads. Videos & Funnels I've been busy this month and haven't made any videos. I built out a few funnel modifications but nothing...

    My B2C Emailing and Marketing Goldmine!

    MARKETING 
    Can you share some results of using this approach? Sales numbers. Open/read/clickthrough rates. Responses of people who were happy that you emailed them out of the blue. To me, a goldmine is when you have a process backed by results, not just a process. That may be why this thread isn't getting...

    How do I afford flight school?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Start a business and be a pilot on the side. Pay for your pilot training with your business.

    If i haven’t seen anyone do it, is it a bad idea

    IDEA 
    If you're going to find excuses why you can't do this, you'll find those excuses whether we green light the idea or not. If you want to know if it's viable, spend $10 on cleaning supplies and go ask some people if they'll pay you to clean their windows... You'll get the only feedback that matters.

    Lex's Digital/Physical Product Group Accountability Thread

    EXECUTION 
    Four days in. I'm already almost to $600, which means I've surpassed all of February's revenue in just four days, and I'm only a couple hundred away from surpassing all of March too. Product Shipments None of my shipments have arrived. One supposedly was delivered today. The delivery even had...

    Lex's Digital/Physical Product Group Accountability Thread

    EXECUTION 
    April kicked off with a bang. I sold $200 worth of jewelry and another $70 worth of digital products yesterday. Pretty sure two Temu orders will arrive today, and I placed a third order to keep products moving. Dealing With Chargebacks I received the first chargeback from a digital order back...

    Let's Flip Stuff for Fun and Profit!

    HOT! SIDE HUSTLE 
    Yeah, not bad for the first month. The most time-consuming part is getting stuff listed. Once it's out there, I mostly forget about it until I get a message. I haven't decreased the price on anything. Seems like things eventually sell if they're out there for a while. I could probably improve...

    Let's Flip Stuff for Fun and Profit!

    HOT! SIDE HUSTLE 
    For March I earned a total of $341 flipping items. Still have a lot of inventory out there. Still getting almost daily interest. The most surprising item I've listed is this old hammer. I spent $0 on it. I found it by running over it with my lawn mower at my old house. Listed it for $10...
