    How My 19-Year-Old Son Built an $8K Web Design Business in 60 Days

    GOLD! WEB DESIGN 
    May I ask how you approach the ads themselves? Like what's your hook, do you have a landing page, etc. Not asking for it chewed up, I'm just curious since I've done web design for a few years and all of my customers have come from referrals and/or cold calls. I honestly assumed ads would be a...

    Tin Foil Hat Time: Are Aliens Here?

    HOT! CHAT 
    This is exactly what I think, actually. I think there's something genuine going on but it will be 1. presented in a way to dupe us and/or 2. whatever those aliens/things/whatever are, they will present themselves in a way that will breed trust (whether for nefarious purposes or not, I dunno)...

    Tin Foil Hat Time: Are Aliens Here?

    HOT! CHAT 
    I used to think this too but I've been reading a bit on UFO sightings throughout history, the stuff that they've drip-fed us these last few decades, abduction stories and whatnot that I'm beginning to believe that something's definitely up and the governments are preparing us for a big reveal...

    Tin Foil Hat Time: Are Aliens Here?

    HOT! CHAT 
    I personally think we're getting a big alien psyop in the next few years. I don't think aliens are what they paint themselves to me and imo they've been tricking humans throughout most of history. I. got way more tin foil hat theories but don't wanna scare too many people off lol

    What book are you reading? Right now. Post up!

    NOTABLE! HOT! BOOKS CHAT 
    I'm always reading something. Sometimes I'll test a few fiction books and read a few pages to see if I get interested, others I just dive in. Usually I'm reading three: one fiction book, one non-fiction entertainment book about a topic I'm interested in and one self-help or educational book...

    Anyone here have an artistic/creative project (music, writing, etc)?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I'm just curious if you guys have something you do in order to create art. Did you at one point try to make into a career or are you trying to? Are you hoping for it? For me obviously it'd be the dream to get paid to play music. I sing, play guitar and bass and write for an indie punk band in a...

    What musical instruments do you play?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Guitar and bass. Probably my favorite thing to do in the whole world. I was technically self-taught though I took a few lessons as a kid. But as far as playing the music I love most (folk, punk and metal) it was pretty much all self-taught.

    Interesting. I'd be curious on if @Antifragile would say "why not both?" as I would. Again, I'm not saying the employee's feedback isn't valuable data but it doesn't hurt to go a bit of an extra step if you're already there to gather a bit of info on when the owner/DM is available. Who knows...

    Not really feedback but just curious: did I understand correctly you got just one decision maker's contact/working hours? Or did you get more? When you talk about the offices saying they rarely missed calls was that the employees themselves? I'm not saying their feedback isn't valuable but...

    I'd like to add now that I reread it. What I automatically say even more than the example I gave you when they ask "why do you want to see him?" is "I'm ownership. I was just going to talk with [owner] in order to help with... etc." That one helped me a lot, too, because subconsciously the...

    building an AI business from zero in public. Here's everything

    - AI - 
    Hey man. I've been doing sales for a few years and mostly have to cold approach businesses so that I can get a meeting with the decision maker. When it comes to businesses, most of my successes were when I managed to get the owner or any decision maker in person. So if I caught them opening up...

    How would you turn a $400k–$500k inheritance into $2.5M+ within 10 years?

    INVESTING QUESTION 
    Have you read Unscripted? The book has a whole section on keeping a cashflow going with the money you already have through investments. Granted, you need a lot of money for it to be effective but you might wanna dive into that

    Good place to design ebook?

    IDEA MARKETING QUESTION 
    Hey guys. So I've had something I worked on in the back burner that I think would be of massive value if it helps people in the same way it did me. It's basically a mix of a strict elimination diet and supplementation that I've never seen discussed on the internet regarding Irritable Bowel...

    MARKETING STORY 
    @americanlife If you are vibe coding with something like Lovable (or any of the vibe code alternatives that use CSR), my suggestion is to look up tutorials on YT on how to make the SEO in your website work. It's a bit complicated but you can get it to work. Or consider changing to Antigravity...
