    Best way to learn SEO

    MARKETING 
    So I really want to learn about SEO and how to do it. Im wondering for those who learned, was it one thing (a class, book) or a variety of things? Im going to look into finding a class at my local community college, but wanted to see if anyone had any recommendations as the best and most...

    Yes that will be a difficult task

    Who would I need to create analytic software?

    We would analyze peoples personal health and goals (through health apps, other health areas) and help the supplement companies push their products via personal health apps. So we would be recommending to the supplement company that Bob is diabetic, and would be a candidate for X supplement...

    At this point it would be personal health and getting people the right supplement products to be pro-active about their health, rather than re-active.

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Yes conceptual at this point. Just trying to ask lots of questions and talk with those in both industries to see if there is a market need.

    Wow thank you both for your in-depth posts, very appreciated. Not coming from an IT/Analytic background its difficult for me to say exactly what data sets we will be using at this point or even where they will come from. I certainly dont have any problem telling my ideas, as I think ideas are a...

    Who would I need to create analytic software?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    So this is a question I have been asking myself lately. If I want to create an analytic tool using data, who would I need on my team and what could I outsource. I have the idea to create an analytic tool that would help improve the supplement industry, but Im not an IT guy and I dont have an...

    What Market research worked / didn't work for you?

    Speak to the bottom line. If you can prove that market research leads to more sales, then I promise you will have the ear of any small business.

    What Market research worked / didn't work for you?

    Market research can be a critical part in a start-up business, because the more you understand the market you are wanting to go in to, the better you can strategize and make informed decisions. At the same time, dont let the unknown scare you off and being confined by analysis paralysis. Ive...

    Is this a red flag?

    The guy has a real ego so he thinks he can do it on his own. He gave this act like hes going to do big things, so I just let me talk and hung up. Was a learning lesson and I took a lot away from it. The only bummer is feeling like you are back at square one, but Im just glad this happened now...

    How do you decide if a specific industry is worth it?

    I would reiterate what the previous poster said. If there is demand for a product and you can fill it, you have surpassed about 80% of start-ups. I would look to see if you can fill the void, not say company A is making 1 million a year so I could make 1 million a year. Who knows the market...

    Is this a red flag?

    Thanks everyone for the helpful advice. I have no equity or contract, right now we are in the "dating" stage of the start-up and were beginning the process of putting together an LLC. I talked with him today and bluntly said, either you bring me on as a member of your existing LLC (his IT...

    Is this a red flag?

    Ive had my fair share of red flags pop up through out my start-up days in which I should have looked into more, but Im always amazed at how I still seem to miss obvious ones that I should have addressed. Let me know if this sounds like a red flag. So the guy I have been working with also has a...

    Need advice on how to get customers for a service based business

    My suggestion would be to use print ads and Google adwords, and target them towards your potential customer. I would also join the local Chamber of Commerce, and get the word out for your business that way. Target some complimentary businesses and see if you can do any cross promotion. One idea...
