    Is being an Entrepreneur a Torture, really?

    INTRO 
    I will start by saying I hope you will chose LIFE. None of us is you. None of us feels what you are feeling and dealing with. Many have gone through these same, or similar, challenges...but none of us is you. You are unique and you can make a difference in this world...but only if you are...

    A story of PERSEVERANCE! Overcoming Family and Friends getting in the way of FASTLANE!

    MINDSET 
    I started a scrap/recycling business. My philosophical goal was to start and grow an ethical business that gives back to our planet. The real incarnation of that is Shark Scrapper LLC. I redirect material, primarily electronic waste, out of the trash stream and into reuse and recycle streams...

    How to Kill Your Loyal Following: Use NFTs for Crowdfunding

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I never could wrap my head around this NFT thing. It always seemed like folks chasing money instead of providing value.

    Where I am

    INTRO 
    Welcome to the forum Tortley. There is a lot of great information here. I recommend you start by reading as many of the GOLD and NOTABLE threads as you can. I suspect you will need to get another job in order to feed your family while you figure out how you will get on the FASTLANE...

    A story of PERSEVERANCE! Overcoming Family and Friends getting in the way of FASTLANE!

    MINDSET 
    Thank you for posting this @fastlane_dad. My story is very different as I didn't discover the FASTLANE until much later in life. I always knew something seemed off, but until I read TMF I couldn't put my finger on it. By that time I had retired from the US Navy and was about a decade into...

    Insider intro - lots of knowledge little execution

    INTRO 
    Welcome aboard - great intro. There's so much to read and process in this forum it can be daunting. I recommend you first skim through the titles of the GOLD and NOTABLE threads making note of the ones that seem to get your interest. Then you can go back and read through those first...

    Jerky Industry

    MARKETING 
    @Dmack - I'm sorry, but I don't see a value skew here. I'm sure your jerky is wonderful tasting, but so is a lot of other jerky out there. Jerky that needs to be refrigerated also presents some challenges both in logistics for scaling and consumer interest. And protein cookies are all over...

    I'm a Marketing Director for a junk removal franchisor – I want to build a biz helping junk removal startups w/ marketing. Help refine my idea?

    INTRO 
    Thank you - early on I was primarily into reading and learning from all the great minds here. Then once I got done action faking and actually got to work I became so busy executing that I didn't have a lot of time for much else. I'm trying to get better at balance, so you'll see more of me...

    I'm a Marketing Director for a junk removal franchisor – I want to build a biz helping junk removal startups w/ marketing. Help refine my idea?

    INTRO 
    I agree. I had the sense he was going after the smaller, independent, start up types. But certainly the more established firms, especially the franchised ones, have reasonable ad spend.

    Global problem

    OFF-TOPIC 
    One of the things I've found so interesting as a member of this forum is that even within a group made up of people who supposedly question everything, we still have cadres of members who allow themselves to be manipulated by social media platforms. And I am one. Why? Because it is damned...

    I'm a Marketing Director for a junk removal franchisor – I want to build a biz helping junk removal startups w/ marketing. Help refine my idea?

    INTRO 
    I'm no SEO, website or marketing expert but I do have some experience in the scrap/recycling world that is a directly adjacent to the junk removal industry. I'm inclined to agree with @BizyDad on this. Most of the folks I know in the junk removal biz are NOT the kind to spend any sizeable...

    21 age male need advice

    INTRO 
    My first job - other than cutting grass and shoveling snow - was as a dishwasher. I'd come home at night reeking of sour salad dressing and gravy. But I loved it. It meant I no longer had to ask my dad for money so I could go on dates. It was my early taste of FREEDOM!
