    Progress / Introduction - 19 - Action Taken

    EXECUTION 
    I'm curious as to how you were making money buying at retail price and selling on amazon. Seller fees are pretty damn hefty. What were your margins? Usually the bigger issue with amazon/ eBay is selling counterfeits, which violate the company's intellectual property rights. Some companies, for...

    How many action fakes can the fastlane come up with??

    GOLD! HOT! CHAT 
    Hey man, watching CNN really broadens my horizons. Unlike this forum, I understand the insidious nature of the tyrannical patriarchy, their attack on gender fluidity, and most importantly- how drop shipping will pop fat stacks into my bank account I just need to figure out how to convince...

    Fear and Action-Faking in Entrepreneurship-- a 19 year old's guide to askholing.

    Here's a question, do you even give a shit about this Shopify drop shipping store? Do you believe that the products you sell are so beneficial to your future customers that you would go door to door and tell complete strangers about them? That's the level of passion that it takes to keep you...

    I'm only a couple years older than you - and fell into the exact same digital generation pitfalls you did. Let me save you a couple years of wasted time . i would tell you to cut out social media entirely - but it's literally part of your business. Do your best to keep it that way . I too...

    ..Hi Everyone! I'm Chaster from the Philippines :) ;)

    INTRO 
    This is a tough one , but I'm going to have to put my money on "exclaimation point". I've read in many leather bound books that confidence is a real game changer.

    Would you do this deal? Need the opinion of fellow entrepreneurs

    HOT! 
    Really dying to know what was said now^ Sucessful entrepreneur eh.... According to who, him? You know you can lie on the internet right ? At least look for social proof to confirm this. As was mentioned before, this deal smells bad literally every way you slice it. I'd back out.

    The margin is the margin for a reason

    SOURCING 
    Very smart post. Loved your price breakdown analysis. Where things get especially fun is when you're competing with counterfeits that are so aesthetically perfect that consumers can't tell the difference. They have the luxury of undercutting and still making laughably amazing margins...

    What does your writing style say about you?

    I totally have the same natural bias, however I'm trying to eliminate it. I've met quite a few individuals who are brilliant business people, and far from eloquent writers. Your ability to string a coherent sentence together is not tied to your ability to make F*ck tons of money. The only time...

    Why the 30 Day Copywriting Challenge Doesn't Work. Secrets from OZ and Narnia.

    MARKETING RANT 
    There shouldn't be any sales tactics in the copy itself. This is independent of the copy. I agree that your copy should be genuine and free of aggressive "marketing speak" lol. However, I've found it tremendously helpful to just talk to your client ( on the phone ) and get to know them. The more...

    Why the 30 Day Copywriting Challenge Doesn't Work. Secrets from OZ and Narnia.

    MARKETING RANT 
    Here's the thing . Writing is incredibly subjective . What I may consider steaming dog shit, others may consider golden prose. Vice versa is also true . Often , clients don't know what they want. You must tell them. your confidence and presentation is what will win you a contract , not your...

    I have a problem with MJ DeMarco (Follow your passion gets a beatdown)

    GOLD! HOT! 
    I think you might be incorrectly defining what "wealth" is. In his book, Demarco defines wealth as a trinity of health, relationships with family and friends, and the freedom to whatever you want, whenever you want. The reason he titled the book "The Millionaire Fastlane", is because we've been...

    My biggest life regret ( by far)

    MINDSET 
    This is a great metaphor. I'll do my best to not concern myself with the lives of others more successful- as it doesn't affect my reality. Just as my reality doesn't doesn't affect them.

    My biggest life regret ( by far)

    MINDSET 
    I used to think that my biggest life regret growing up was playing video games. Even as I type this- it infuriates me to think how many countless hours were wasted drooling in front of a screen, entrenched in virtual worlds, filled with virtual guns and virtual dead and soon- to- be dead...
