    Entering back into the slow lane

    I skimmed over this, but dropping my two cents in. 1 - the business wasn't doing as well as you hoped. Sounds like you need to pivot the idea if these CEOs aren't interested. Good to know. 2 - you're going back into the slow lane to get your self financially stable. No shame in that. 3 -...

    An alternative to Shipmonk?

    Not that cool and don't have subscription. I actually have getpocket, so I'll save it in there. I usually like to get to my articles and references DIRECTLY and not sift through a lot of stuff. I'll go that route. Cheers!

    An alternative to Shipmonk?

    This is gold! Thank you so much! Now how the hell do I save this so it doesn't get drowned out with any other posts I get into?...Hmmm....

    An alternative to Shipmonk?

    Hey yo! Has anyone here used an alternative fulfillment/shipping center other than Chipmunk. I find their prices to be fair, yet steep. Looking for an alternative that won't strip away any profits from the beginning. Thanks in advance!

    Violinist seeks fastlane

    INTRO 
    I'm so glad that this was helpful to you. Truly. It seriously pisses me off that so many universities don't teach these practical lessons to their students, and also, that these strategies aren't talked about more openly online. I'll be sure to write about it and post it in some spaces that a...

    Hey there Anna! I'm a creative entrepreneur - well sort of (lol!) - as well. You came here for strategy so let me spitball a few ideas for you, as I'm trying to help a young singer with his brand currently and will be starting on my own as well. Get used to putting yourself out there. It's...

    INTRO 
    Hey there Martin! Welcome to the Squad. You're 20, so you have PLENTY OF TIME to experiment doing a lot of things. Not THINKING about doing these activities, but becoming a PRACTITIONER. That will help you narrow down, REEEEEAAAL QUICK in what you do, or do not like, about the activity...

    $27M+ In Online Businesses Sold + Managing A Remote Team Traveling Abroad - Ask Me Anything!

    AMA 
    Well, be still my heart, if it isn't Charlie Hoehn... It's because of this guy and a blog post he wrote, YEARS AGO, that I started to approach companies in the "proposal manner". He wrote this article, and provided the script, on how he approached working for Tim Ferriss - which he did for a...

    $27M+ In Online Businesses Sold + Managing A Remote Team Traveling Abroad - Ask Me Anything!

    AMA 
    Hey Justin! Thanks for doing this AMA. I have a question about hiring and remote working. I was reading an article on OkDork about a guy that purchased 29 business' and he's crushing it. He mentioned his hiring process and how he hires, not the "A-players" but the "B-C-D Players" and trains...

    Continue or restart?

    I say go with the second choice. Sell everything and start from scratch with something you love. Why spend time doing something you DREAD everyday, especially when you have complete control over this decision? If you want to liquidate everything or sell the business to someone for a profit...

    Doubts

    Test it. And here are two ways (out of the many) to do that. Go on sites like Quora, Reddit, or any other online forum - and look up the problem that people are complaining about. Are you fixing this problem? Great. If not, do a deep dive into EXACTLY what they're complaining about and then...

    What is your guys' take on popular Youtube vloggers?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Yass!!! My main "shows" are Gary Vee, Superwoman (who is just brilliant), and Roberto Blake. Then I watch "the news" to keep up with the world going down the toilet. Eh... But those 3 are my NBC, ABC, and CBS. I don't even own a tv. What for? And this isn't a fad. As long as people are...

    Is there special kinda genes ?!

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Don't apologize for "sounding harsh" to that bullsh*t. You hit it right on the head! A lot of people think that entrepreneurs who listen to people like Gary Vaynerchuk, or MJ, or Ramit Sethi have "drank the Kool-Aid". Who. Fuqin'. Cares. Like you said, not everyone is going to get it. And...

    A.I Will Kill 50% Of Jobs

    Empathy will always trump any bot or A.I. I don't know about the future, but as of now...yeah, don't market to people, talk to people. Don't give advice, give strategy. Go deeper, not wider.

    The Perennial Seller by Ryan Holiday

    BOOKS 
    Agreed. Especially about the part about the little "stunts" that him or his clients did to get media attention or get that initial traction. And how big players, even Google, do that to this day - if not everyday. Clever AF. I wonder what the brainstorming meetings are like?...

    The Perennial Seller by Ryan Holiday

    BOOKS 
    I'm about half way through the book and from what I can gather, and I said this above using Lilly Singh as the example - what it sounds like a classic is, is the subject matter and hyper-focusing on that 'human element'. So, as another example, in the content marketing world right now - a lot...

    How to Overcome Instant Gratification?

    MINDSET 
    I was getting ready to say the same thing Christopher. Perfect. And I'm the same way as you when it comes to putting on clothes like I'm going out, even though I'm staying in. I approach my work MUCH differently. What are the odds? #digitalhighfive

    I dug the "Obstacle is the Way" too. I'm a huge fan of his and Robert Greene's books - obviously. :)
