How to get my products to consumers
Thank you, that is what I think the benefit of that approach would be. It seems very time consuming (but not any more time consuming than some of the other business activities that I am doing). The long-term benefits could be very substantial.- mayana

How to get my products to consumers
I want to get your insight on what avenue I should be focusing most of my energy on. I make natural cosmetics products; it is a small operation that I run out of my home right now. I make some sales online, but most of them come from local word-of-mouth marketing. I'm not in a hurry, I want...- mayana

Look guys, I have a seriously awesome concept
Your barrier to entry is already there if your idea is as awesome as you think that it might be. You can't prevent people from trying to copy you once you get started up, though. You just have to be better, faster, more adaptable to the marketplace than the next guy. There will ALWAYS be...- mayana

In Person: What would you ask a fastlane multi millionaire?
EXECUTIONI think that sometimes people forget to ask this question: "What did you do that contributed the most to your success, in your opinion?" A lot of people ask the "what have you learned" or the "what would you do differently" questions. A lot of times, the "mistakes" and the "failures" often...- mayana

Please Don't Try to Build The Next Instagram
SOCIAL MEDIA WEB/DIGITALI think that the article was pretty negative. I don't think there is anything wrong with trying to start "the next Instagram". If it nets someone several hundred million dollars, I won't be hating like people are right now.- mayana

What Do You Think of My Business Idea?
IDEAI was thinking about this the other day, actually, because I've seen a few Cash for Gold places spring up locally (actual retail locations). I don't doubt that a ton of money can be made... If you think through a simple SWOT analysis, the biggest threat for me is.... what happens when gold...- mayana

Thoughts on using a CMS instead of building my site?
WEB/DIGITALIf you really can build the exact same site, then why not use the CMS? The barrier to entry is great, but even just putting in (and filling with original content, etc...) your own CMS on your host does present a barrier to entry (it's not as easy as paying $100 to join a MLM or $8.00 for some...- mayana

Getting Dirty with Wordpress
WEB/DIGITALI don't know how advanced you are yet, but if you want something pretty quick, you can set-up your Wordpress site in about 5 minutes if you use HostGator for your hosting.

Why Business Books… SUCK
I don't think that any kind of reading is ever a waste of time... I'd be willing to bet that every successful person would say that education (or learning, in whatever form it might take) was a big factor in their success. MJ says it in his book, too. If you don't have the discipline to read a...- mayana

How to unify a community?
WEB/DIGITALYou could start an online forum - and you wouldn't even have to restrict yourself to the local area.

Just bought a domain off Flippa. Need Help

Ready, Fire, Aim?
It seems like doing it yourself might make the how-to info that you write later on more complete, and creating quality is important. If you don't have the funds, I would do it myself. If you don't have a ton of extra money, it might be better to spend the money on marketing, etc... It really...- mayana

Start business by myself or w friend who has the needed capital?
