    What to Do With a Double Lot? Ideas & Advice Needed

    IDEA 
    I have been given a double lot - measuring about 120 feet by 145 ft. It's not huge, but I know it has some potential use other than just sitting there empty. The property is located right next to a shopping mall and it abuts a popular restaurant. It's zoned for multi-use. I have had a few...

    xIndexer Journal - My Internet Service Launch & Progress

    EXECUTION 
    Well, I sent out my sequence of pre-launch emails but then I ran into a major hurdle: it turns out that an identically-named service doing almost the same thing as my service has already launched. He has the .com, and I have the .net. The irony is that I had my service coded before any of my...

    xIndexer Journal - My Internet Service Launch & Progress

    EXECUTION 
    Yes this is a hard launch with a definite date. I'm sure I'll learn some lessons from it and wish I did something differently when I look back, but the way I'm launching it makes sense to me for now. I have a list that I've been building, so it's an obvious way to announce the product launch...

    I have an online business about to launch on Friday - so I guess you could say I'm "about" to have a business. :)

    Customer Acquisition : Let's talk about your experiences

    Business cards are great for a physical product, but what about someone who's selling an intangible product or an electronic product? Some examples I'm thinking of are an eBook, a web-based service, or maybe something like an iPhone app. Any ideas?

    xIndexer Journal - My Internet Service Launch & Progress

    EXECUTION 
    A few years ago, I had an idea for an internet-based marketing/SEO service. I wrote down all the steps that would be needed to create this service, and I documented how it would work, and I figured out my costs as well as the time/effort that would be needed to create it. The service would...

    How to Develop Programming Skils Quickly?

    There's already been a lot of practical advice posted in this thread, but I have to share my experience - because I am a programmer and am completely self-taught. I did buy a few books, but the things that helped me the most were the following (in no particular order): 1. I learned to set up a...

    My Introduction and HELP needed!

    You need to spread out your risk. With eBay/PayPal all your eggs were in one basket - and they were crushed. So (as crockbar said) Amazon is another option. Etsy might be an option. Your own website (using an ecommerce platform like Magento) could be another option. It depends on what you're...

    Hey programmers, what software do you use?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    There is no "right" answer to this, because the real "best" thing to use is whatever works best for YOU. Personally, when I was on a PC I would use Crimson Editor to do all my coding - it's about as plain as you can get. I'm on a Mac now, and I use Coda for almost everything, but I like...

    Sacrifice vs Enough Time

    MINDSET 
    I think we can all relate to this scenario, because this is how modern-day life is set up. It's the system by which the workforce is governed. To break out of it, you need to carve out time and use it wisely and efficiently. You have a "big idea" that you want to pursue, but not enough time to...

    Hi from New Orleans - I'm very excited to be here!

    I'm coming here after just reading the book - and I'm very excited. The book verified so many things I thought (but just couldn't put into words) and it solidified my way of thinking. I also learned quite a few things! For a few years I've tried to make a living doing various things online. I...

    I've Read The Millionaire Fastlane!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    This is one of the few books I've read that I can say was a life-changer. It's one of those books that I have to buy and give out to people I care for - the information and the mindset that is laid out in its' pages is just too valuable to keep all to myself!
