    I'm using Terapeak paid version for in-depth research on Ebay and Amazon. There definitely more info about Ebay, but there also some Amazon information. I plan on selling on Amazon only and am using the Ebay research to see how competitive and demanded products in general are. See also the...

    An AMAZING thing happened to my INCOME when I traded-in my rusty Honda for a Viper

    GOLD! MINDSET 
    Funny, I'm doing the exact same thing as you (living in NL too). Declined the lease car and taking public transport to avoid traffic. And time is not wasted since I can read and work in the train. Still not moving fast enough with my fastlane through...But working hard on it!

    How to test a new product

    EXECUTION 
    I suggest two books. On great book on product development, the other on licensing. The book on licensing will push you towards licensing instead of developing a complete new product on your own, while the book by Lori will explain you the process of testing a prototype. Books: Lori Greiner -...

    What are the safest sites to import products?

    So if for example we take Italy as a country of import, would you suggest to import established Italian brands to the US or import private label Quality Products from Italy and build my own brand around it?

    Want to launch a SaaS..where to begin?

    SAAS / APPS WEB/DIGITAL 
    I agree with this for several reasons: I have put a LOT of effort in the Foundation approach (without getting the subscription) and have not found a big enough need yet simple enough to solve. This I can confirm after having made more than 300 calls, or maybe even more, to business owners in...

    Question About FBA in the States (UK Resident)

    I'm also looking into importing from China, branding the products and selling them on Amazon. You used to sell a lot on Amazon but not anymore? Are you advising against going this route since undercutting is just around the corner? Even if branded products are used? Thanks!

    Drop the Bad (Internet) Habits!

    MINDSET 
    Yep, English is so widely spoken in the Netherlands that it doesn't motivate to learn the language. What helps me a lot is setting goals. E.g. this week I gave myself a week to finish a provisional patent application and sell sheet. I'm almost finished so that worked out for me. Now I need to...

    How do I get rid of this constant anxiety?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I can resonate with this. I'm in the idea phase (again), also getting overwhelmed by all the possibilities: importing, ebooks, SaaS, selling B2B to old industries, apps, etc. It seems that the more I read, the more anxious I become. I suppose we just have to choose the business type that suits...

    Using Slowlane skills to start Fastlane business

    SLOWLANE EXECUTION 
    A thought just came up to me. What if you write an ebook about the "Best Practices for Building a Kickass Offshore Team", "How to Know When Offshoring is a Perfect Fit for your Company" or "40 Tips on How to Avoid a Disaster with Offshoring to India"? And market it to companies, on Amazon...

    Vigilante's "Mind Your Business" Radio Show

    EXECUTION 
    Liked! Quit spending time on FB since a month but these motivations are definitely a reason to check once in a while. Podcasts are a great idea! Even though I should quit consuming and start taking more action (looking for a new direction now after a failed project), I will certainly fit these...
