    Indecision

    MINDSET 
    Thanks @Vigilante Your post made me realize that indecision is more than just "not doing the work". It can also be a conscious decision to keep doing low-value tasks (busy work) instead of committing to a more productive task (perhaps one with a bigger payout, but also a longer delay).

    I think I read a similar article. It was saying the profit margin of big companies was like 10% or 11%. Admittedly, that is a lot of money at the scale they work at, but I wouldn't say 10% is an obscene profit margin. If salary + benefits are 50% of their expenses, a 10% raise for everyone...

    Don’t Let Google Control Where Your Traffic Goes

    MARKETING 
    Interesting. I always thought it was your competitors being sneaky by bidding on your brand name. Sounds like Google is the sneaky one behind it - and happy to let you blame your competitors.

    Golden Nuggets of Wisdom

    Don't mistake movement for achievement (don't drive 100mph in the wrong direction). Surgeons are interested in safety - pilots are committed to safety (have skin in the game). You don't get what you deserve - you get what you negotiate (ask, or the answer is always no). Teach your garden to...

    I'm having AI anxiety. What is your thoughts on upcoming AI?

    - AI - 
    There is danger to every new tech. Fire, combustion engine, atomic energy - all of these things improved our lives, but they are also dangerous. Double-edged swords of increasing sharpness. Homo sapiens won against Neanderthals, and maybe AI will win against us ... survival of the fittest...

    Will AI kill the fastlane dream?

    - AI - 
    To echo others here: opportunities will change - but not disappear - due to AI. For example: yes, some people will be out of work soon. Do you think there is a business opportunity to help them reskill for another career? Do you think a business owner will pay you $1k per month if you can help...

    How to Create a $2k+/mo Passive Income Website in 30 Days (or Less)

    GOLD! HOT! EXECUTION 
    Ok, I have the 7-day email course ready. I set up the automation sequence in SendInBlue, with a 1-day followup after the course ends (day 8) and also a 1-week followup (day 14). I pitched my product on days 5, 6, and 7 in the course, and also in both followup emails (days 8 and 14). Now I am...

    How to Create a $2k+/mo Passive Income Website in 30 Days (or Less)

    GOLD! HOT! EXECUTION 
    Are you going to promote your product just on the last day of the course, or the last 2-3 days, or every day? In other words, is it possible to overdo it? I have 5 out of 7 days of the course ready, hoping to finish up tonight.

    GOLD! HOT! EXECUTION 
    This thread is awesome Lex, thank you. This post made me realize that I need to use an opt-in to segment my email list and find the right people for my product. I am going to create a mini-course this week like what you suggested. Then I will ask new email subscribers if they would like to...

    I'm Building An SEO Agency

    EXECUTION 
    Expanding on this: any website with lots of content that is not getting the visitors they want. They are already spending either time or money (or both) on content - without results. Bring them results and they will pay you some of that money. Also, can you pick a niche to specialize in? e.g...

    ChatGPT AI is a huge breakthrough, a Google killer

    - AI - 
    Agreed - the place where my mom works has a fax machine and no computer in the building. I don't see them using ChatGPT anytime soon either.

    They thought a potential banking crisis could get this largemouth bass to stop hiking interest rates - but boy were they ever wrong! He didn't take the bait, and he won't scale back anytime soon. You see, what he really wants is to reel in this inflationary death spiral and prevent a dead-fish...

    Stock Market Discussion, Chat About the Latest Market Action

    HOT! CHAT 
    Now they are saying that the CEO of SVB sold a bunch of his stock in the bank - and everyone got their annual bonuses - just before the receivership. Those high risk loans didn't work out with the way interest rates went - but they still got to cash out. Makes you wonder - who else is "in the...

    I just read an article saying there is "little chance of contagion." Yeah, sure. If there was a big chance of contagion, do you think they would tell us? At this point, they are just trying to prevent more bank runs and receiverships.

    Grant Cardone's Dirty Little Secret

    MARKETING 
    You are 100% correct. This is why I get tired of some YouTube channels after awhile: they are too repetitive once you "get the message" and realize it is all just being rehashed. Still, sometimes you need to be reminded of things every so often. A channel that does that for people can succeed...

    Should I sell my AI app for $50k ?

    SAAS / APPS 
    Lots of good advice here. I would flip the question: knowing what you know about the app, would you pay $50k to buy it from someone else? More? Less? That might give you some clarity.

    Watching this thread - nice work on taking action and getting some sales. At some point, you might need a bigger/commercial kitchen to scale up or comply with gov regulations. Talk to some of the other Farmer's Market vendors. See who would be interested in renting space at a kitchen. Take...

    SEO & ChatGPT

    MARKETING 
    Local SEO will still matter, at the very least. When you search for an Italian restaurant near you, you probably want at least a few choices. If you search for a plumber, you will want a few numbers to call, just in case some of them are busy.
