    Larger deals in general have a long sales cycle. But they are in many ways an easier sell because if you deal with price sensitive people no matter the industry, you get higher churn rate, higher returns, higher nickpicking and handholding. god couldnt tell you some of the assholes i dealt with...

This is for my own website versus on Amazon. The specific scenario is some of the stuff on alibaba have weird nonsensical chinese...

    Fox, hows your mentorship course thing going? Are all of them learning to code at this point? For those wondering about WP, the reason why I bought it up is because 99% of things, whether it's ecommerce, static, an analytics dashboard, or a landing page, can be done in Wordpress. Its the...

    Hey Fox, have you ever run into a company that wants more customization than you can handle? Say your product is only html and css and fairly static but their objection is they want x, y, z, and they want the ability to have a login and this and that. Or they have a bunch of product details and...
