    High End Shoe Rental Idea: Feedback Needed

    IDEA 
    You know ... I just thought of another problem that no one -- including the OP -- has raised. The O.P.'s premise is he will be "renting" used shoes ... so people will not have to spend the big buck "new" shoes. But the reality is ... he is not competing with the price of "new" shoes ... he is...

    High End Shoe Rental Idea: Feedback Needed

    IDEA 
    Okay ... so you think you can "rent" the shoes to "middle class" women ... I doubt it ... but you seem to think so ... so here's an idea: Find a middle class woman. Then try to "rent" her a shoe. Whomever you think fits the ideal description of your ideal customer. Ask her shoe size. Hand...

    High End Shoe Rental Idea: Feedback Needed

    IDEA 
    Rental businesses CAN be Fastlane. M.J. acknowledges as much in TMF. So let's think this through ... what are the possible arguments against ...? Well ... let's start with the target market: Women. Rich and well-off women would never consider such a thing. If they want a pair of shoes ...

    Yeah ... that's it. Time is the magic variable. By analogy: Person #1 earns $100,000 Person #2 earns $50,000 Who was more successful ...? Assuming they worked that same number of hours ... easy ... Person #1 But if Person #2 earned his $50k in a week ... and took the other 51 weeks off ...

    Well ... that assumes your time and labor is free. But we all know ... it really isn't. The reason it is easier to flip $1k into $5k over a year's time ... is because your time and labor has a fair market value. In other words ... if I take $1k ... and "invest" an additional $4k worth of...

    I dont see anything wrong with what the O.P. wants to do. If thats what she wants to do ... that's her choice. Go for it. The Fastlane is not for everyone.

    Which Entrepreneur Did the Better Job?

    MINDSET 
    Well ... no doubt ... $200k is more "meaningful." But I am still left scratching my head ... wondering why I should be more impressed with Person #2 ...? I mean ... suppose there was a third person ... Person #3 ... the son of a deceased billionaire. And Person #3 ... puts $1 Billion is a...

    Good point ... time invested is a variable. If Person #1 spent hundreds of hours ... or worse yet ... hundreds of days ... flipping that $1000.00 into $5,000.00 ... yeah ... I can see your point. But ... if he spent hundreds of minutes ... or ... hell ... hundreds of seconds ... I might be...

    Which Entrepreneur Did the Better Job?

    MINDSET 
    Well ... the poll is not really about whether either of them did a "stellar" job ... what I am really inquiring about is perspective. Being as the early results seems to be leaning in favor of Person #2 ... I'll offer a counter-argument in favor of Person #1. I think Person #1 is far more...

    Wow ... Okanagon is Gorgeous. I love Canada. Ontario is my home away from home. But I've never seen a picture of Okanagan before. Wow. Amazing. Now I want to go there. Yeah ... I can defiantly see why it would be hard to leave. I have (for the record) sung a song that mentions Okanagon...

    10x better. Nice! :) One last suggestion: When the video ends ... there are three video options ... each of which takes you OFF of your sign-up page. My recommendation would be to get rid of that (you want them to stay ON your page and sign-up) and use a call to action still frame at the...

    I just went back to check it out again. I found the print (this time) and agree ... at first glance ... it looks like small legal jargon you would expect to see at the bottom of the page, along with the copyright notice. No wonder I didn't see it. The benefit (discount) should be MUCH...
