    Anyone here own an RV and live and/or travel in it frequently?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I grew up rving with my family. When I was in middle school, my folks bought a 40’ class A. They took my 3 younger brothers and I all over the place: Disney, South Carolina beaches, Rushmore, Yellowstone, New England, you name it. We had a blast. That was almost 20 years ago, and they...

    Major Quickbooks Price Increase. Alternatives?

    THIS Could not agree more. My frustration does not only lie in the $90/mo bump. I mean, I'd rather not pay it! But, unless I invest time and energy into other options, I have to pay it. It's really an eye opening exercise to go through and add up all your monthly subscriptions, both...

    Major Quickbooks Price Increase. Alternatives?

    We are not holding all of that inventory.... Sorry; I re-read my initial post where I mentioned the SKUs are inflated and did a poor job of explaining it. To answer your question: both. We have proudcts that we import and retail, but then also have an on demand production division in which...

    Major Quickbooks Price Increase. Alternatives?

    True SKU count isn't really that high... It's inflated because of variant SKUs (size, color, etc.). This was a company we purchased earlier this year, and that's the way they had it setup. It was easier during the transition to "stay the course" and just keep it the same, because, until now...

    Major Quickbooks Price Increase. Alternatives?

    We've been using QB for years, and switched to the online version about 18 months ago. Had the $50/mo plan; I think that was the top of the line version at the time. About 2 months ago, found out the price was going to $60/mo... I thought, OK, nbd. Within the last few weeks, I saw emails...

    What Are Your Big Plans For 2018?

    HOT! 
    Glad to see a few people also have health at the top of their lists. 2017 was a good year business wise... Tripled our top line whithout sacrificing margins. Spent a lot of money on equipment and are under contract to purchase a bigger facility. Problem is, my health suffered. Have not...

    What do YOU do to keep track of your mind?

    It's going to be different for everyone. I reorganize the structure from time to time. But basically, I start with a broad category/topic/part of my business, such as "Google Ads" and then drill down accordingly with checklists, ideas, goals, failures (so I know what I've already tried and got...

    What do YOU do to keep track of your mind?

    I have an Office 365 membership for my main eCommerce site. I originally elected to go with 365 for Outlook to keep track of email, tasks, calendar, contacts, and then of course programs like word, excel, etc. I stumbled upon OneNote, and now use it religiously. I actually ignored it for...

    2016 Fastlane Summit (Room Shares, Ticket Exchanges, Etc.)

    MEETUPS 
    I have 1 ticket for sale. Unfortunately, can no longer attend. I also have a room reserved. Doubt I could transfer the reservation, or if there's even a shortage? But may be able to coordinate cancellation time right before someone calls in. Please PM me if you're interested, and I can send...

    The Profit, entrepreneur business turnaround show on CNBC

    HOT! 
    I enjoy the show. I usually DVR episodes and get together with my Dad to watch them over a beer. While there are instances of overly dramatic nonsense that are part of any reality TV show (I swear at around the 10 min mark of every episode someone starts to cry and needs to leave the room...

    Capital for wholesaling?

    REAL ESTATE 
    By no means am I an expert... but I've dealt with a few wholesalers before. I would imagine a lot of your money, especially if you're just starting, should be spent on advertising to get your name out there. Throw up a website: they're cheap to make, give you a little credibility, and are a...
