    10/10 for helping your father modernise the way he does things. Any reason for the above comment though? It's usually indicative of something other than simply marketing (as done on a local scale) I'm using this as an exaggerated example, not literally. Your father has developed cataracts...

    How to work for 14+ hours a day? Calling the ones who do.

    MINDSET 
    Working 14 hours isn't a goal. It may become a by product of what you need to do to get to xyz but it isn't the goal. Dan

    Does AI Search Really Bring More Conversions?

    MARKETING 
    I can imagine this to be true due to an increase in both usage of AI and the belief that the AI is a 'friend' Therefore the search is seen more as a referral than a search. I first heard this concept a couple of years ago. Not being an Ad/Search specialist whatever they wish to call...

    Have you ever lied for a sale?

    QUESTION 
    Depends on whether you mean an out and out lie or a slight fudging of the truth. eg Bill Gates did not exactly lie to IBM, but what he did served both parties interest at the time because the person Gates actually recommended for IBMs operating system was such a perfectionist IBM got fed up as...

    The Rich Man's Wildcard...

    MINDSET 
    Richard Branson was on holiday in the Virgin Islands. Due to low passenger numbers his flight back to the US was cancelled. The passengers who had turned up were understandably angry. What did Branson do? Chartered a smaller plane then and there and sell all the seats to the disgruntled...

    36yo career change - Collected my Slow-lane redundancy package, looking to move onwards (Australia, Melbourne).

    INTRO 
    I was wondering why you were made redundant? Can Engineering drawings be churned out by AI with the correct prompts nowadays? Was that a factor? And if so, you could have an opportunity for mid sized companies using the fact that right now you do this for a Blue Chip. You have instant...

    So far I’ve done a lot of what doesn’t work

    INTRO 
    This guy is in your country and may have some advice for you if you ask nicely. You seem to be a doer rather than a talker which helps. Either way, I am sure his thread will have plenty of useful information in it...

    4 months left - all or nothing

    HOT! EXECUTION
