    The 2020 Fastlane Summit "Social" Thread

    HOT! MEETUPS 
    Just thought I'd encourage everyone to take some Vitamin C and whatever else you like to do to boost your immunity in the days leading up to the event. I know that when I travel / drink different water / sleep in a different bed / have a different schedule, it can take a toll on me. Let's be...

    Holy Sheet! A SCRIPTED Twilight Zone? (Black Mirror)

    You're right that I was assuming that the content of the post was indeed truthful, factual, and authentic. I made this assumption based on knowing the character of my friend who attempted to make the original post, and based on the snippet that was visible of what she tried to post. The visible...

    Atlas Shrugged Week 14: Ch 7-10

    "A house divided against itself cannot stand." I found the Honduras illustration to be helpful in that article, too. To me it seems self-evident that Rand's version of morality ("unfettered self-interest is good and altruism is destructive") is the direct opposite of love. It's a twisted...

    I pooh-poohed this at first, but this video really brought some concerning facts to light... View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hSIt496d82s Pretty crazy. (Also, I posted this in a different thread. I have a friend who lives in China, and this happened when she attempted to post a...

    Can Copy and Marketing Look "Too Scammy"?

    MARKETING 
    Absolutely, it can look too scammy. There's a huge amount of styles within copywriting that range from "tabloid-esque" to extremely restrained. Yes, often the tactics that you see in the marketplace are being used because they work. They increase sales. Smart marketers are always testing...

    I've been such a coaster, you could put me on your coffee table and it wouldn't seem out of place

    INTRO 
    Welcome to the forum! High-five from one homeschooler to another. :D That is AWESOME! I think almost everyone has someone in their life that they consider as "that guy who does copious amounts of research before a big-ticket purchase." I know I do. So if I'm about to buy a bicycle or some...

    Holy Sheet! A SCRIPTED Twilight Zone? (Black Mirror)

    Check this out. I have a friend who lives in China, and she attempted to post a positive message about how to disinfect to kill coronavirus. This immediately popped up on her phone (WeChat app): As a copywriter trained in the creation of persuasive communication, I can't help but observe...

    Getting paid for waiting...

    As someone who tends to run late, I think it's a great idea. It would put subtle pressure on me to make sure I'm on time so I don't have to pay. I think there are people out there who are so irresponsible that they wouldn't bother to pay, but there are others who are conscientious enough to...

    Challenge: One Month To Make £5000 Or You Lose Everything - What Would You Do?

    Obviously this depends on the person, their skillset, their available time, and any unique limitations that they have. If it were me, and I needed to make an emergency $5k in 30 days, I would reach out to the people in my network who have any sort of digital marketing role or own a small...

    Anyone using IP targeting or geofencing with display ads?

    MARKETING 
    @BizyDad you are awesome! What's a "small" budget? Are we talking about a threshold of $300/month or $1500/month or what before they take you seriously? Do you know why this is expensive? Are there a lot of costs to the geofencing vendor? I've asked for a quote from one company. I'm curious...

    Anyone using IP targeting or geofencing with display ads?

    MARKETING 
    For what it's worth, here's a little bit more detail around my search for how to set up some geofencing. I'm actually kind of shocked at the dearth of information on this topic online. Is this some kind of closely guarded secret that only big companies with large, well-funded marketing...

    Anyone using IP targeting or geofencing with display ads?

    MARKETING 
    Yeah, some of them will have. How does that relate to geofencing though? Unless the owner of the trade show website is willing to share the data of the devices that accessed their site, it's not like *I* can retarget those people. Or am I missing something?

    Anyone using IP targeting or geofencing with display ads?

    MARKETING 
    I'm also curious how to set this up, as I'd like to run Google Ads to specific trade shows. So I'd like to set up geofencing for a specific convention center between specific dates. On Google Ads, the minimum radius is 1 mile. That's way too big for my purposes. I know there's a way to do this...

    How do I scale a business like this?

    Does your local area have a meal delivery kit business, such as Blue Apron, Hello Fresh, or Purple Carrot? You might be able to negotiate a facility-sharing deal where you use their employees and their already-set-up industrial kitchen for the food prep. Otherwise, it seems like a logistical...
