    If I'm in town, I'm definitely up for it. I know I'm going to Vegas one weekend in May, and possibly in Spain with a bunch of other Fastlaners - also in May. Hope it works out!

    Thanks, Allen! I'm going to download that book today. I'm in the middle of another right now, The Luxury Strategy. I find the discussion and analysis of this topic fascinating. One can run statistical analyses all day long to derive general conclusions. But the reality is that one has to know...

    Broke? Try Ebay...

    Well, you could always get the free boxes and turn them inside out. Takes no more energy than collecting and cutting other boxes to size. But the larger issue, to my mind, is that you need to find a higher margin product to sell. It sounds to me as if you are competing against the same...

    What would you tell your 18 or 25 year old self?

    GOLD! MINDSET 
    I would tell my 25-yr-old self (25 years ago...): Value time. Live meagerly. You can “live large” later. If you can’t pay them off every month, don’t use credit cards. Stay in shape. The world is not kind to fat people. (Besides, nothing else matters without your health.) If he's is...

    Okay, I'm thinking about either: "Turbo-charging your current slowlane vehicle to get into the fastlane." Hint: You don't have to reinvent the wheel. - - or - - "Navigating the bumps on the Silk Road: How to create and bring imported luxury goods to market" Managing suppliers, currency...

    Russ, I'd like to hear "What to do when you get stuck" or "great customer reviews". I suppose I should start thinking about my topic too, since I didn't present last year. . .

    Broke? Try Ebay...

    HOT! 
    I just use the free Priority Mail boxes that USPS provides. I charge a flat shipping fee, domestically, which is the average of what my actual cost will be to ship it. Sometimes I come out ahead. Sometimes, I'm a little short. But it comes out in the end. It's not too hard to weigh your...

    I'm going to disagree, to a small extent, with some of my favorite Fastlaners on this topic. While I DO agree that "cause marketing" is not typically advantageous to a business - and can in fact actually offend as many prospective customers as it attracts... I have to point to Tom's shoes which...

    Developing New Skinny Drinks

    With the real fruits / juices, will you have any issues with shelf life? Just wondered since refrigerated real estate is more costly then unrefrigerated shelf space. Oh, and to answer your earlier question... I have used skinny mixers by Bevolution. I would guess that they are little more...

    Developing New Skinny Drinks

    What do use for a sweetener? My favorite drink du jour is Cheesecake Factory's strawberry martini. But I cringe every time I watch them pour in the simple syrup. So I just took in a bottle of Stevia with me a few months ago, and asked them to keep it in a drawer for me (which they gladly...
