    You could also reach out to a local homeschool group with a post like... "Hey parents! Do you have a teenager who has an aptitude for taking things apart and putting them together? Or are you looking to help your teen develop a possible money-making skill with appliance repair? I've got a 55”...

    Glad that's working out! Side note: If your forearm is killing you after one hour, your ergonomics are off. My guess would be that your grip is tighter on the pen than necessary, and/or you are bearing down harder than necessary. The grip you've used all your life is going to be hard to break...

    If you look at photo 24 of 26 on Zillow, it shows the siding absolutely pummeled (I would assume from hail, but it's so bad, it looks like an active shooter was involved). If they had hail bad enough to put that many holes into the siding, then I would guess the roof is absolutely wrecked as...

    This really bothers me. I tried it out and the same thing happened. I entered "Victorian dressmaking hem stitch" as my search query, thinking, "This is a very specific, fact-based item. What stitch did they use to hem their dresses? There are several different stitches that have been used...

    How would you reach teachers and homeschool parents?

    MARKETING 
    - Mommy bloggers / vloggers / instagrammers etc. - Teachers who are shilling an MLM. Give them a better alternative (e.g. an affiliate link). It's 99% sure they are losing money with their MLM, so they'll probably be happy to switch, but they've already proven that they have the guts to sell...

    All this talk about terrible ISP's is getting me fired up! I'm currently working on building an ISP with a few friends, and it is so fulfilling. It's a real fastlane business. We're doing none of these tricks. Laying fiber in the neighborhood? Door hangers on every door, showing the prices...

    The dream of owning a house that is (un)realizable

    HOT! INVESTING 
    Change your language. Remove "I can't" from your vocabulary. Instead of saying, "I can't," start saying, "How can I?" Your subconscious will start working on the problem and start finding solutions. If your self-identity is "I'm helpless and everything I want is impossible to get," then...

    I'm like you. My brain works just like a GPS. I can look at the map beforehand, take the directions into my head, and drive to a place I've never been to before. After being to a location once, I can get there again without GPS, and if I've seen other roads on the map, I can also take flexible...

    Hyperinflation starting? What's happening in your area? Post your ground reports.

    HOT! INVESTING 
    Yeah, but when I was looking into this in 2018, NONE of this was being pushed by MSM. The factors were all concerning, but the concept of "food shortages" was looked at as a complete conspiracy theory, and anyone talking about it seriously was dismissed like "What's wrong with you? America is...

    It's pretty inevitable unless something drastic happens. I've been looking at stats from the US Dept of Agriculture since 2018. Just a couple of details are enough to leave me shaking my head... - The US is losing farmland to development at a rate of 3 acres per minute. [source] - The...

    Client chose an iffy business name and is worried about shadowbanning/censorship on social media

    Most people use NoCo as the abbreviation for northern Colorado. Why didn't your client use that? Most people in the area are familiar with seeing and using NoCo, so I doubt any other variant would get searched. Would it be that hard for your client to change to NoCo? Seems like a no brainer to...

    A howl of pain from the founder of Saas. How to acquire users?

    MARKETING SAAS / APPS QUESTION 
    In terms of getting the word out to more customers, my first thought is to look up all the VA's and podcast companies who help produce podcasts. For (almost) every podcast out there, it's someone's job to go through and clean up the machine transcription. Poor accuracy is a pain point. The more...

    Uber Eats has run some recent ads that topped my list of disturbing/disgusting. Basically the point of the ads is to make the point that Uber Eats can deliver other items besides food. But each ad shows an actress EATING the non-food item that came in the Uber Eats bag. I think they're...

    I like the copywriting, but then I watched the ad. This is a great case study for the classic marketing advice to "be polarizing." It definitely gives people something to talk about. My take: While it was refreshing to see someone standing up for common sense in one area, I couldn't look past...
