Starting my first SMMA business!
The client side-- sales, communication, collection, etc, is much more challenging than the actual technical aspects. Also, you will get rejected. A lot. Just be ready and keep a thick skin without taking it personally. Do not rely on your first, or any one client, to get you to "financial...- Ronak

We do what we WANT
HOT! MINDSETThe result isn't certain in business, even with effort. But when things are in motion, you have the ability get feedback. Many times, that feedback is hard to digest, so we get sidetracked and start questioning whether it's worth it, or whether we should quit and do something else. It becomes...- Ronak

Should I look for investors?
It's important to take a step back and think about what you actually want. What are your goals for the business? Do you want a lifestyle business that gives you a very comfortable income and time to enjoy it, or do you want the multimillion dollar 80+ hour a week, high stress, but scalable...- Ronak

Would you go to Harvard Business School For Free?
HOT! MINDSETTough call, time is very valuable, but I'd do it for the intellectual experience, unprecedented networking, and chance to live the student life again in Cambridge...although I'd care far far less about grades this time around. One of my undergrad regrets was focusing too much on academics and...- Ronak

How Turning Down Business Can Lead To More Business
GOLD! HOT! EXECUTIONYes, what a conundrum! I'm always drawn to the bigger potential clients, products, but have had that come back to bite me when things took a downturn!

Vegan / Vegetarians Only (Chat about lifestyle, opportunities, food, whatever...)
NOTABLE!Moreover, all reservations sold out for June and July-- remarkable. Brave move that seems to be paying off, so far. Apart from the impact, this also emphasizes the power of constraints in business and life-- when you limit yourself to a certain set of guidelines, it can have the opposite...- Ronak

If the US dollar Fails
Hard assets seem good in theory, but in a catastrophic worldwide black swan type meltdown, they may not be of much use as a store of value. Anything kept on an electronic exchange is just as vulnerable as currency, so it has to be in tangible form. You can only store so many grain, coffee...- Ronak

NOTABLE!I've never tasted a meat based hamburger before. I've tried the Impossible Whopper and felt like I haven't really been missing much. It was completely flavorless, especially after all the hullabaloo about how it tastes like "the real thing". Are hamburgers just that tasteless, or did I choose a...- Ronak

Pitch Mastery by Oren Klaff
MINDSETI recommend both his books first as a starting point. From that point, depends on how fast you want to go. The concepts take awhile to sink in, so the weekly calls are great for that. I have not gone into all the content yet, so can't say, but if you're serious about it, I would do all of it...- Ronak

Pitch Mastery by Oren Klaff
MINDSETThe content is still good. Not just VC focused, but broader dealmaking content. Is the price justified- IMO, yes. The weekly calls are fresh content that's working based on actual deals he's working on, you get a chance to ask your questions, and IMO, he could charge 5 tines as much and it...- Ronak
