    POST 9 I have still been in the AI space, everyone! As of now, I am sharing the website for my product: an eBay comparison finder. You take a picture of an item, and within seconds it shows you what the item is and how much it costs. and how much you can sale it for to make profit. The problem...

    @Mj Demarco An Important decision ( For business owners only)

    STORY 
    I can get a job because I have a Process Technology degree. I originally went to school for it because I followed that same script MJ talked about—where his dad pushed him to go to school for finance. I can't change the past, so all I can do is keep moving forward. I know I can find plenty of...

    @Mj Demarco An Important decision ( For business owners only)

    STORY 
    Exactly, Dark, it is a simple decision—thanks. I just wanted to see what other business owners thought about it, that’s all. However, I learned something valuable earlier today when someone reminded me that everyone on this forum is an internet stranger with their own opinions who doesn't know...

    @Mj Demarco An Important decision ( For business owners only)

    STORY 
    Yes, your post makes sense. The town I would be moving to is Pecos, Texas, and I currently live in Houston, Texas. Again, as I mentioned, I can find work here, but you said a local job would pay a similar rate. No basic job in Houston will pay anywhere close to $36 an hour. If I am wrong...

    @Mj Demarco An Important decision ( For business owners only)

    STORY 
    The place is a small oil town—they have about 4 nail salons, 10 hair salons, and 2 HVAC companies. A little more things I would have to see what they are lacking. What is your point in telling me to look this up? Doing real estate in Pecos isn't a good idea; it has very low volume, and my plan...

    POST 3 I called over 20 businesses on the phone today that do not have a website. Some of them did not answer; some did. I used the 3A to see where I was going wrong, and after the 5th call I found something that worked. I got a client who has no website, and he wants me to build a website for...

    POST 2 So I am now targeting places on Google Maps with no websites. I called 10 of them today, and only 5 answered. I started off by asking, "Why don't you have a website?" They were all beating around the bush. For about 3 of them, I told them exactly what benefit they get from this, "We...

    Ok thanks, but how can I get the decision maker to say yes? Every time I offered the free trial, several business owners said no. I am now seeing who will pay for my service. You mentioned two things — they would have to trust me, and they have to know I won’t mess up their phone line. How could...

    Hi @Antifragile (and anyone else reading), Quick question: I went to multiple businesses this week mostly sports training facilities where the owner is usually on site. I remembered your advice about testing if anyone is actually willing to pay, so that’s what I’ve been doing. I walked in...

    Hi Antifragile, Quick question for when I attend events where business owners gather: How should I start a conversation? Should I tell them what I do and offer the 2-week free trial right away? I went to a business owner event today and met several owners. I told them about my AI...

    Thanks Antifragile. I’m here to learn so I collected data as you gave advice. But you’re saying that’s actually not a good way to measure real pain because all I found out was people had phones and some had basic service? correct ? I never directly offered my services that could improve that...
