    Shark Tank Master Thread, Episode Discussion

    HOT! 
    ^^^^I could not for the life of me understand why they sold the Vegas market away despite acknowledging that it's the top market for weddings.

    Shark Tank Master Thread, Episode Discussion

    HOT! 
    That Amber charger was a nice idea in theory, but the execution was bad. I don't know what bars or clubs he's been to, but I've never seen anyone give their phones to the bartender to charge it. And I totally agree about the issues with getting the phone out of the box. The possibility of...

    Aliba IPO

    Looks like the IPO opened up at $92.70/share. I'm shocked to be honest. Maybe them being public now will force them to clean up and get rid of all the counterfeiters and wholesalers pretending to be manufacturers.

    Making a mother business with little children

    I get what you mean. There's a specific term for those type of subsidiaries, but it escapes me right now. But basically each company is a division and its own entity under the main corporation. Others here may be more knowledgeable about the logistics of actually setting it up. But from a...

    Making a mother business with little children

    So you basically want to create a large company with multiple subsidiaries below it. Similar to what Richard Branson has with Virgin (Virgin Mobile, Virgin Record, etc). Really the best way to do it is start with one. No point in trying to create several businesses if you don't have one viable...

    What the f*ck are they saying

    HOT! 
    What's funny is that there are several universities that now offer entreprenuer degrees. Ironically, these degrees do nothing more than get you prepared to work in the business world for other people rather than teaching you how to start your own. If someone's gonna become one, they just do...

    Bank account tied to PayPal? Beware.

    HOT! 
    I'm using Stripe for my online store and it's way better than PayPal. One of the reasons I used it instead is because of how much PayPal sucks. Definitely recommend it.

    Hip-hop ghostwriting service progress

    EXECUTION 
    You'll have to do some trial and error to determine what's a good price to charge. It'll all depend on your clientele and your own service quality. You could do all front end and get paid up front one time. You could go strictly for back end royalties if you think the song is definitely going...

    Hip-hop ghostwriting service progress

    EXECUTION 
    Interesting idea. You can definitely make money as a ghostwriter. Turning it into a full business is a different challenge. Rappers aren't like singers in the sense of freely admitting that someone else wrote their songs. There's always that expectation that a rapper can write their own...

    Why Facebook is a Joke (And various social media/smartphone insanity)

    NOTABLE! HOT! MARKETING 
    The ironic thing about social media is that it has made most people less social than before. I completely abandoned Facebook just purely out of boredom and came to find out there were people who used it to keep tabs on me rather than ask me directly how I'm doing. We're talking family members...

    Online Entertainment: NOW is the time.

    That business is huge and still growing. Not just in terms of actual streaming services, but also the hardware to utilize it. -The WWE recently launched their own on-demand network that racked up 667,000+ subscribers just in the first two months and they only launched in the US. When they go...

    The Profit, entrepreneur business turnaround show on CNBC

    HOT! 
    The newest episode is a big reason why I'm weary of the idea of having a business partner. That one guy felt he was entitled to 50% of their business when he only invested $2,000. And when it came time to do some work, he walks out. I hope they were finally able to delude his shares.

    Shark Tank - What Do YOu Think Will Happen????

    I feel like Lori will be involved in some way either as the sole Shark or partners with someone else like Robert. This seems like a perfect QVC product.

    I'm just now getting a chance to catch up on season 2. The first guy with the car dealership blew my mind. Only 20 cars on a lot that's more of a lounge than anything else. And $6.9 million in debt?!?! Wow.

    Once you redeem the links, the courses are yours for life. I went ahead and redeemed them and plan to get started when I find some time. Good thing is they have an Android app so I can use these courses on the go.
