    HOT! 
    I would love to join! Could help a lot in terms of international client communication. I don't have Wifi for the next two weeks though - right now I'm using public wifi in a library to work. All the other people in here would kill me if I started having hourlong calls.. So, if the group isn't...

    Freelancing: I act like an employee, my client acts like an employer

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    Bookmarked. This post should be a required read for all freelancers transforming into a service businesses! Basically I've been doing the opposite of this list. From hiding behind chats to not having clear project boundaries. I hate to use this phrase, but this post opened my eyes to some big...

    Freelancing: I act like an employee, my client acts like an employer

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    Thank you all for taking the time and helping me! I agree. Atleast as the kind of freelancer I am today, I don't really have a business - I have a job. There are a lot of ways to be a freelancer and have a business, I don't take advantage of them though. Not so long ago I realised I'm building...

    Freelancing: I act like an employee, my client acts like an employer

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    Recently one of my clients started micromanaging me – he wanted me to track every task in Trello and wanted me to write a detailed daily report about what I’ve done and how I’ve done it. In short: He treated me like an employee. That made me think. Normally I envisioned a client–freelancer...

    Learn how to make a full-time income with affiliate marketing using SEO

    MARKETING 
    If your business works so great, why do you sell your course? If you are making passive six figures as a one man show - what stops you from hiring a team, giving your employees your method and scaling your current business to 2000€/day? Why not scale something you already know how to do...

    What is the most important ideology you have learnt about entrepreneurship?

    Don't overcomplicate it. Pick one direction. Start moving. Build momentum. Adjust on your way. Don't wait for the perfect day. It was yesterday. Don't get comfortable. It slows you down. And, atleast for me, it makes my fire and desire small. If you are feeling stuck, work. To solve...

    EDIT: That post got way to long, sorry! Tl;dr: Become a content creator 1. Analyse which video skill you are good at 2. Pick a marketing niche in which you can add value through your video services (ex: video edits for landing pages; product tutorials for youtube; small content pieces for...

    I will help you find a product to sell on Amazon

    GOLD! 
    You might want to look into other countries where the game is not as niche. Here in Germany CSGO wa really popular - one year ago, my whole school played the game excessively. Some people bought said knifes. Since then I've cut ties to most of them, so I can't tell if the game is still so...

    What if you don't call to sell but to help and build relationships? There's a difference between "Hey Vlad, I'm a webdesigner and wondered if you need a new website" and "Hey Vlad, I noticed your website can't be accessed from smartphones. Since you are dealing with endconsumers, I could...

    A member once posted the "levels of income" (I think it was @MidwestLandlord) 1. Survival 2. Status 3. Freedom 4. Legacy A lot of people dabble in 1 or 2. You've reached 3. You don't *have* to earn more money - you could loose money on a business (as long as it does not affect 3) if the...

    The last couple of days I've seen countless facebook and banner ads for this website: Entrepreneur Fastlane - Wie du dir ein Leben nach deinen Vorstellungen erschaffst Don't visit it - it has nothing to do with the actual fastlane philosophy. It just looks like the next "get rich quick"...

    Having massive struggles finding the way to becoming rich

    HOT! MINDSET 
    For me there are two different WHYs. First there is my reason to be an entrepeneur - it helped me make the decision to not take a job but start a business instead. This reason is selfish and egoistic: Financial freedom, not throwing my life away, watching my future children grow up. Then...

    A step by step guide to 1 million a year.

    1. Create a thread to find the step by step solution. 2. ??? 3. Profit No, but seriously. We don't like step-by-step guides on this forum - because there is none. Execution is dynamic, not static. It can't really be put into a list - because it changes for every entrepeneur. Because every...

    Fear of success?

    MINDSET 
    You don't have a clear image of what beeing rich means to you - so you take whatever piece of information you have to create one. It is not your 'rich identity', it is your associate's 'rich identity'. For the longest time I tied "beeing rich" to "having no time". Because that's the only...

    It's Too Expensive...

    Put your service out there, analyse the feedback and adjust the price. What are your customers saying? More importantly, what are your non-customers saying? Every time I've tried to come up with a pricetag without engaging in the market, it did not work. For me, practical, real world...

    This is really good advice! Just to add a recent example from this forum: @Vilux just started selling websites. He does not know how to design or create a website. He can tell if a website is bad or good though. So he cold called every business behind the bad looking websites. In under a...
