    Lifehacked - Allen Wong's book

    BOOKS 
    @Regoapps - Allen, great book. Just finished. I enjoyed your story. Question - I know you covered whether to go after a new idea or emulate and improve on an existing and you gave the pros/cons of each. If you had 25k and you were outsourcing the development, would you develop 10 apps @ 2,500...

    X Factor for Tech Entrepreneurs... What???

    They'll probably draw some big names like Richard Branson. I think it'll be cool. Now everyone is going to think they can be an entrepreneur (they can, but.. you know what i mean).

    DOOR TO DOOR - Bootstrapping

    Okay. First thing you'll want to do is go out for a day and just get comfortable talking to strangers. Approach the door and do the happy knock "doo-do-do-loo-doo... doo-doo" (Hopefully that makes sense. if not, watch nardwuar interview celebrities. he always gets them to say it at the end of...

    Lifehacked was good. I liked the writing style. Some helpful tips for app developers in there too. Allen is slick, and wise beyond his years.

    DOOR TO DOOR - Bootstrapping

    yes Patrick, they would say that about me however (and this is a big however), that does not mean it's a prerequisite for success in door to door. I've trained, and watch other managers/the CEO train people who are completely Type B personality introverts. The top overall salesman at that...

    DOOR TO DOOR - Bootstrapping

    I love that video. His intention was clearly to get his name out there as a comedian though, not so much to sell the product. A+ for promoting himself, but C+ for sales. Funny as hell, but I would have closed that sale after 2 minutes and then been off to the next couple of sales by the time he...

    DOOR TO DOOR - Bootstrapping

    Awesome. What is your intention with door to door? Awareness of your business or are you going to try and push a product or service then and there? There's a big difference. Also, are you looking to use door to door as a distribution method and scale it to where you have sales reps, or are you...

    DOOR TO DOOR - Bootstrapping

    That sounds horrible. Each location generated 1-2.5 million in revenue within 6-7 months (the in-season). The owner is now up to around 10 locations and opens 2-4 more each year. The company provides pick-up points for workers in the morning (shuttle service) and also at night. We had...

    DOOR TO DOOR - Bootstrapping

    I'd say it's the most immediate way of getting a customer for your business. It's also a great way to get feedback on your biz.

    DOOR TO DOOR - Bootstrapping

    Most services were done on the spot with no sign-up. For aeration and driveway sealing, you got 36% commission on weekdays and 32% commission on weekends. You had to sell and perform the service for that pay though. Lawn care would be 10% of the amount received at the door up front for the...

    DOOR TO DOOR - Bootstrapping

    Hi all, Door to door is a great way to bootstrap to cover your expenses, raise funds for a project or just earn some quick cash. My door to door story started when I was 20 years old. I began selling Aeration (holes in the ground) and Driveway sealing in residential neighbourhoods. I've sold...
