    What do you think of microcap investing?

    INVESTING 
    If you're seeing a spike in news about particular stock, be wary as it will probably be too late. Often the best times to get in are in the quiet periods as the pump and dump crowd are slowly accumulating a position. This happens with many stocks in terms of the retail investor. By the time...

    One Million People Book

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Interesting, profiting from people's vanity. Reminds me of getting invites for various "Who's who" books. Of course if you get selected you are going to buy the book. Brilliant!

    I'm good at Sportsinvestment, but my capital is too low

    HOT! 
    Why aren't you selling hundreds or thousands of subscriptions to your picks? You don't need much capital for that and can rack up a big bank roll in a hurry.

    Architecture - Dream houses....

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I love the modern minimalist homes. I have a lake lot and will be building one in the next couple years. It will be a passive solar home-well insulated and designed to capture sunlight in the colder months and shade in the summer months. Complete with infinity pool out to the lake...

    I'm good at Sportsinvestment, but my capital is too low

    HOT! 
    How much money can you put to work? Would you bet the same way betting others money as your own? If you saved 10K every year from your other jobs to bet, and got your lower return of 20% every year interest just compounded once a year you'd have nearly 400k at the end of 10 yrs. Investors...

    Quickbooks and CRM?

    Thanks Kontent, I have heard salesforce has a fairly large customer turnover. I would be looking for a solution that syncs data locally offline with online. ACT has some quickbooks integration and well as QB has some add-on CRM product. Wondering if anyone had some experience with...

    Need help with e-commerce site

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Aren't there hundreds or thousands of tailors that don't offer suits? They'd be a great outlet to sell through. They could have a sample for the customer and take proper measurements. Perhaps for a tailor chain you could do private label suits as well. Not quite building your brand but PL...

    The $300 Million Button

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Registration/log in is irritating, I have left purchases in cyberspace because of it. Now I have a new HP laptop w/ fingerprint reader PW login. Very slick.

    Breakthrough with Tony Robbins

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Sad to see the Tony Robbins show didn't make it. I was an original guest on the Cindy Margolis talk show pilot shot on South Beach. Partied with her afterwards. She got picked up for 6 shows and cancelled. I think all the TV execs just did it to try and get a shot at her, really...

    Quickbooks and CRM?

    Anyone running quickbooks have a CRM (customer relationship management) program to recommend? I think there are a couple QB add-ons but thinkin they may not be fully featured. Something like ACT is fully featured but not sure how well the integration is with QB? Goldmine? Saleslogix...

    Getting F@#$ed

    I had two bad experiences with partners in different ventures. Had to sue one and one other still owes me 50k but is broke. The first one I learned is that people can be real stupid and irrational. The 2nd, is while I had good paperwork/agreements to protect me, all that doesn't matter if...

    Promoting Websites Offline?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    One cool little niche for big time marketing is weekend radio talk shows. The bar seems fairly low there during those time slots during the day. Real estate agents started a RE info show and they really make it into their own infomercial. Get tons of business from it. Another one is a...

    Facebook is the New Google

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    The potential value of FB over google I see is getting your network's opinion on products/services. Very relevant and local, specific to me by trusted people who have had experience with the product/service. FB can rely on its own members to create content and provide the "search" results...

    Bank question...

    I'd start talking to several now, either you'll get lucky or you'll start a dialogue for the future. Also, see if your uncle has some influence with his bank. Things are extremely tight for many banks. It's a numbers game to hit up several of them and find the ones who don't have balance...
