    Buying a business

    SIDE HUSTLE EXECUTION 
    I think that is my largest concern when I think about this. A large part of the reason the business turned around the way it did was because of how he was managing it. I'm afraid that if he left there would be an attrition in the culture he built, especially if a more traditional manager came in.

    Buying a business

    SIDE HUSTLE EXECUTION 
    Recently I met with a friend of mine who has been looking at selling his pizza business. He took it over right before the pandemic from the previous owner who had run it for 13 years. He was able to turn around and get it running right and has made enough money to basically pay off what he...

    Failing Forward

    INTRO 
    I've never really had any issues with the MLS itself. There are number of different companies out there that service different realtor boards, so maybe I just have a good one. The one thing that I have an issue with is that there are a lot of exorbitant fees that go into maintaining your...

    Not your typical to code or not to code

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I have a number of phone app/SaaS ideas floating around my mind. The first one I want to focus on has the greatest market potential being that I am in the field, and there are no known apps that fill this space. My question: I know from a business standpoint, my best bet to get an MVP to market...

    Getting Started

    Follow up question: Focusing on step 3 specifically, are there specific questions that should be asked? Should it be approached like Dane Maxwell (aka, find the pain)? To me, that seems more like a step 1, so I am not 100% sure what I should be looking for in terms of dev.

    Getting Started

    So. This is less of a question about how something will work, but rather, how would you progress? My thoughts from the ground level: 1. Start with idea/concept 2. Analysis of target market size 3. If target market is acceptable, build lists, start probing market for viability of concept. If...

    Part-Time Real Estate Agents - Urban Areas

    REAL ESTATE 
    It depends. I became a RE agent to do it part time and I had my license for about 3 months before I quit my job; I hadn't closed a single deal. I didn't even have a deal going. My full time job was taking up too much time to meet clients, preview houses, go to training, and etc. So I quit my...

    Failing Forward

    INTRO 
    Sounds like Grant Cardone. I actually do zero cold calling. I go door to door instead. It may take a little bit longer, but I'll be healthier for it and I know no one else and I know no one else in this area is doing that. Fortunately, I aleady have read the millionaire Fastlane...
