    Yep, have about 150 or so.. about 30-40 different business ideas in total. I have about 20 or so developed and really think I should sell some of the others off as, realistically, I can't nor do I want to develop all of them..

    Employing Slave (er, Intern) Labor

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I may be skeptical, but I'd be surprised if you got someone with skills for free in this arrangement. Nowadays, with sites like 99designs, rentacoder, etc - people of all ages, geographic regions can find work with the benefits of flextime, work from home, project for their portfolio AND get...

    Money man is gone..........

    Agree..plus you most likely have a track record that you can present to potential investors where you can show them what a typical transacation with you might look like. This really is a good lesson for everyone, period. Especially in this economy - you can't get comfortable..there will...

    re: The "Luck Struck" Progress Thread Congratulations! Action + Plan = Success ... Curious - are you in contact with B&N and Amazon or is that something done by your publisher? And, does that mean you'll get put in the bricks and mortar stores of B&N if the book is successful online...

    I applaud your effort and ambition! Like others said, I'd outline a plan for each. That will help you determine priorities and then ACT. Also, you might want to put these items together as a puzzle so to speak.. For instance, I assume your verbage of "building" equates to you want to...

    Challenge: Want to turn $1,000 into $40,000 before December.

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    With limited cash resources at your disposal ($1k), it seems that a service based business should be high on your list. Curious..why do you want to avoid a service based business? How much time do you have to dedicate to this adventure? Do you have a 9-5 job? I 1000% agree with others - we...

    Carlton sheets, "winning in the cash flow business" ..

    I purchased Carleton Sheet's program years ago. I'd suggest that the program and others like it are very general, not necessarily peddling wrong information but probably not giving you enough of a system to really develop a full fledged business, like a franchise. However; it did cause me...

    The Mark Cuban Stimulus Plan

    I agree. The thing that concerns me is in the post the terms seem very loose. If you are taking on a partner/owner, as this is suggesting, you need a very defined contract. I'd be quite leary of a template that says hey..give me 20% of your biz for 20k and nothing much more. Mark is smart...

    How to make money on giving away product to celebrities?

    Thanks for the response! The connecting the dots between person A wearing our product and then the consumer finding our product is the problem. We are a new product, so consumers wouldn't know how to find us. Our relationship isn't that we sponsor the person, so I don't think we can suddenly...

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Found a neat tool for online marketers.. www.clickpath.com it combines analytics with call tracking and puts it in one nice place to pull all sorts of report. However; it is quite expensive and wanted to know if anyone has an experience with it or a competitor that is cheaper (the quote I...

    Sports Memorabilia Biz???

    I don't know the company - but here is my take.. 1. Paying $18k to be a "distributor" is a flag. 2. Their website looks to be a pretty simple template - not particularly professional. 3. Their website lists no address or phone number (in fact the home page lists "Phone Number:" but is...
