    Introduction - Differentiation question

    All of the above! Which is fine, you can't appeal to everyone. I think you are better off appealing to a smaller market (just women) at first, and you can expand to include men later. Plus, as a woman, you're going to do a better job of marketing to women than you will men. Surpisingly, men...

    AppSumo went from 0- 500,000 customers in 18 months Guide

    EXECUTION 
    I'm a fan of App Sumo. The only thing I've bought so far has been the "Kopywriting Kourse", but it was worth the $.

    If you were going to start a blog what topic would you choose?

    Of course some people are succeeding at it, but 99% of people are making little to no money. It is a viable way to make money, but it's a VERY difficult way now that there's so much competition for almost anything you could imagine.

    Introduction - Differentiation question

    THIS! As great as it sounds to get lifetime fitness via behavioral change, that's not what many people are looking for. They're looking for quick, easy wins. Which is why there are so many "successful" companies out there selling these magic pills and 30 day results - they are marketing to what...

    If you were going to start a blog what topic would you choose?

    A blog is not a business. A blog is a way to attract traffic, but you have to have products to sell (your own or someone else's). The real benefit is having back-end sales. So you sell them on something small, deliver above and beyond their expectations, and then get them to buy something...

    2 projects at the same time?

    The risk is that by taking away your focus from #1, it goes to hell, and since you never gave your full attention to #2, it never takes off. It's possible to juggle many small tasks, but the larger the task, the more difficult it is to juggle. And it sounds like you've got some very large tasks...

    Need Constructive criticism on my website/Execution

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Way too much blank space at the top. The top is your chance to grab my attention, and you missed it. Had I not been specifically looking at this page for you, I would've already left it. The first words you have don't talk about me - they talk about you. I don't care what you are introducing. I...

    Is it better to pay rent, or buy a place to live when..

    Buying condos are a terrible investment 90% of the time - you're better off renting. One, the monthly fees kill you. Two, there's nothing seperating your condo from the 100's of others just like it, making it difficult to get a higher rental or sale price. If you can find a great deal on a...

    Grab a copy of Mark Cuban's book

    EXECUTION 
    I haven't picked up the book, but probably will at some point. I've read every blog post he's had, and I love how he thinks. His views on politics, stock market investing, business, and even college football are all incredibly insightful and spot on. I actually sent Mr. Cuban an e-mail a few...

    Diary of Opening A New Business

    NOTABLE! 
    Sabre-Dunder Mifflin is a public company with no offices in Texas (where JackEdwards lives), and was founded in 1949. This company could be a competitor of there's, but no way is it the same company, assuming JackEdwards' story here is true.

    Need Advice. Which College Major will lead me to my "Fastlane"?

    I agree that you need to UNDERSTAND Accounting, but you only need MAX 3 Accounting classes to develop this - not a Degree.

    Brick and Morter Gym - Fastlane enough?

    The economics of gyms make them very difficult to run profitably. Basically, you need a WHOLE LOT of members, but only very few of them that use the facility. And there's very little you can do to distringuish yourself. Now, a "club" that includes a gym, swimming pool, tennis courts, etc can be...

    How do I find a Mentor?

    NOTABLE! PEOPLE 
    I have signed up for MicroMentor and just asked 2 highly accomplished people to mentor me. I obviously haven't heard back from them yet as it was just a few minutes ago, but I'm excited about it. The 2 individuals I found have experience in my field, one of them in Executive Management and the...

    Fastlane Potential of B2B consulting?

    It would be primarily Marketing consulting. Personally, my view on consulting is that most companies out there are a waste of money that don't provide results. My idea would be to be 100% accountable for results, or I don't get paid. But for that method to succeed, my marketing ideas...

    Need Advice. Which College Major will lead me to my "Fastlane"?

    I have some major gripes about getting an Accounting major. It's the mindset that it conditions you for. Accounting is complicated (for some people), but it's simply looking at the past and deciphering what happened and how to put it on paper. And there's some leeway, but for the most part, it's...

    Fastlane Potential of B2B consulting?

    I've got a business idea for consulting local businesses, and think it could do fairly well (let's call it $150k/yr pre-tax profit with a small salary for just me) because there's a big need for it and I could market it effectively. BUT I don't see a real good way to scale it... I guess I...

    Any negatives to posting your business figures publicly?

    I would not post any specifics as far as involved peoples' names, addresses or city of the houses, etc. If you keep these details out of the post, but just put $$$ figures - you're safe. Nobody will ever know what property you are referring to.
