    A Hustler's Guide To Buying And Selling Anything (Part 1)

    GOLD! SIDE HUSTLE 
    Just make sure to schedule meeting times with people that work for you. If you know you can make it to a certain parking lot by walking or taking the bus at a certain hour, do that. It will restrict you from buying at the drop of a hat, but depending on how many people are in your area, this...

    Accepting credit card payments on your site

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Darius, what if you are dealing with different "tiers" of subscriptions (say I have cool subscription, ultra subscription, and mega subscription) Is there any easy way with PayPal to let customers choose which they like? Is there any way to customize an order from the PayPal button, say...

    Any advice for a beginner Salesman?

    Two books I recently enjoyed about sales were Spin Selling and 20 Days to the Top. They both teach about sales methods and back up their theories/tests with extensive research and more tests! What kind of sales will you be doing? Door-to-door? Cold calling? How big is the company you'll be...

    Get Ready to Vomit, Laugh, Or Whatever It Is You Do.

    This is exactly why I stay off CNN, MSN, Yahoo, etc. The comments are the epitome of McDonalds employee cancer. I can just picture it now, someone sneaking off on their smartphone in the bathroom, reading this, and getting mad, then discussing with their co-workers about how none of them will...

    Get off youtube

    HOT! 
    Youtube is a tool. So are smartphones and computers. You can dick around and play Angry Birds and BF4 on both of those, but you can also become extremely productive with them. Use Youtube the same.

    Good Posture. Something I ignored for a long time.

    HOT! 
    This. This is what I will quote next time I see some "I need help finding a product" thread or comment. I would be the FIRST in line to preorder a full-body ergo-chair from someone where I can look at a computer screen and be in a perfect position. (I know variations of this exist already...

    Just saw Hopsin the other day on tour, 3rd time seeing him live. He sure knows how to do a show, (eg. hosting audience rap battles on stage, standing up while crowd surfing, doing other crazy shit, etc).

    Do you prefer to associate yourself with your web site?

    EXECUTION 
    As stated, it depends on the site. If you're trying to build a business, leave yourself out and refer to the business as "us" or "we" instead of yourself. If you're starting a blog or trying to sell something that way, OR if your brand includes yourself in someway, then by all means, you'd...

    GOLD! 
    Biophase, Not sure if it has been mentioned already in here, but I had a quick Q about PayPal accounts. I plan to start out using my personal PayPal account on my website, then once it grows large enough, get an LLC and create a Business PayPal account to go with it. Would you recommend this...

    Just launched my brand new site!

    HOT! 
    Nick, I have a quick question. Where do you get the pictures used on the site, such as on this page? http://www.retiredyouth.com/unstoppable.html Site looks good so far, sad to say it but I think putting some ads up might actually make the site look more...full? Not sure what I'm getting at...

    Success + exotic car = Sued?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I'm fuming because of this. If this happened to me, I'd have worse matters on my hands for assaulting the driver of the other car. Kidding, but wow do those stories piss me off!!! :rage:

    Importing from Pakistan - high shipping cost.

    SOURCING 
    Well damn, that is quite a bit. Make sure you aren't getting scammed on shipping, because both parties you're dealing with are trying to make money here. Be sure to ask your supplier what discounts you'd receive and at what point you'd receive them (ie. 5 packages, 10 packages, 100 packages)...

    Importing from Pakistan - high shipping cost.

    SOURCING 
    Can't say for the middle east but I know from China/Malasia it's not uncommon to pay $250+. Have you talked to your supplier about this? Sometimes they actually have the best shipping methods set up already with them. You have to remember, the product must ship from the factory/warehouse, all...

    JAJT, in hopes of gaining SOME value out of this thread; I am actually planning on some forum presence with my product, to try and contact the power-users in the niche and see if they'd be interested. This just means I'll be posting on lots of forums, trying to get people to buy. The answer...

    Anyone need help with their website?

    INTRO 
    I really wonder what people gain by trolling here...? I've seen it many times where they take a value or idea from TMF and emphasis that they're "creating value" or something, but why??

    Need a small plastic prototype built

    Biophase, I have heard great things about a company called "Tap Plastics," and was considering using them myself. Check their site here http://www.tapplastics.com/ It looks like they have a wide range of materials they use, and it might be worth a call at least. Also, I was personally...
