    Is it possible to get a confirmation of attendance for those coming from outside the US? Customs may ask for proof/reason of entering (this has happened before to another member) lol Thanks!

    I saw a few people using them and will inquire about one of these for this year! Do you know if a place rents them out or something?

    I'm going to Phase 2/3. Went in October and it was just insane. The amount of walking you will do will literally kill your feet and knees. Be prepared with the best footwear you can buy!

    Anyone have extra space for a room for Sunday to Monday? My roomies are all leaving Sunday and I want to stay till Monday. Would chip in a bit extra if possible. Please PM me if there's a space available. I'm sure a few people here that can vouch for me. Thanks!

    I've got a room for Thurs - Sunday but need to share a room with a group for Sunday night to Monday morning (the group I'm staying with is leaving Sunday so I don't really see it necessary to have a room all to myself). Anyone have some room for that 1 night - I'd be willing to chip in a bit...

    I'm in both the App business and online retail with our own private label items. 2 separate businesses.

    The app went live in March, I hit $500/day a few times but unfortunately couldn't hold it consistently. I did $200/day consistently but now about $100ish/day. Apps get old so it's a bit normal that revenue will fall, hope it picks back up in Feb/March.

    Yup we sell on our own site but Amazon sales account for almost 90% of sales, not because we want it to but because of their huge traffic. We're trying to balance out the % of revenue more on our own site, but learning more about ads and media buying so we can get more eyeballs on our own site.

    I started primarily reading www.bluecloudsolutions.com as Carter knows his stuff and a stand up guy. Take a look at his blog as there's a TON of good info there.

    Multiplayer games are REALLY hard to do unless you're using someone else's software like NextPeer. You have to have the server side configured and a whole bunch of other stuff that needs to be done.

    Thanks JasonR! I do agree with you with some degree on focusing more (my wife says the same), but I'll give you a few solid examples why I don't believe in 100% focusing on 1 product/vertical or even avenue. We had a really good product selling for over 1 year and we did major R&D on it and...

    I'm actually very disorganized, not making excuses but because I have so many things going on at once (as you can tell). With physical products I research everyday and I'll go from one product to another and find manufacturers for them in a few days. Here are some tech software I use a lot...

    I do both, but just find a niche that you can add value or add your own spin on it and you'll see lots of success.

    The App business is MUCH more automated than even ecommerce/amazon, but I find it having a higher failure rate. There's SO many apps out there and to get the attention is a much harder process. Selling physical goods will always require you to still touch the product, packaging and a whole lot...

    Right now it goes into my personal account but once I get back into making more apps and much bigger $, I'll set it up as a corporation. Our online business is much better setup, but that's because we do much larger $ in it as well.

    At first, I just bought source code from developers via Elance/Freelancer/Odesk and then "reskin" it - meaning just changing the graphics of the app into a different theme. I would then hire an artist to change the graphics to my liking and give them the requirements/theme I had in mind. You...

    Revenue source is 90% advertising (showing pop up ads and banners) and 10% IAP (in-app purchase). I also want to get this into a more proportionate % so I'm not just relying on ads.
