    We were just talking about this at work today! I have a coworker who gets asked by callers all the time if she is a robot. She's not - I know her in real life - but she does have the "quintessential American corporate female voice" and impeccable diction. I told her she could have a lot of...

    Hola Naju, bienvenido al foro. Para que sepas, creo que hay una regla sobre hilos en otros idiomas, que deben estar en inglés. Pero en mi opinión, vas a aprender muchísimo más haciendo crecer el negocio de tus padres primero, y luego (o a la vez) empezar algo tuyo desde 0. Es una ventaja...

    Dumb People Earn More Than Smart People

    Interesting. There was just recently a thread here arguing the opposite point. At the risk of reviving the :eyeroll: pound of iron versus pound of feathers debate, here's the link to that thread. https://www.thefastlaneforum.com/community/threads/are-iq-smarts-and-success-correlated.107251/

    New "User Power" Metric Live (thanks ChatGPT)

    HOT! IMPORTANT! 
    I LOVE the new reaction pack!! But wait - I agree with @Antifragile - the heart-eye reaction should be +2 so that it's more impactful than a "like," and then gold being +3 is awesome!! (Speaking of the heart-eye reaction... could we get that one included in our in-post options? There isn't one...

    Offering Copywriting Services For Free?

    IDEA 
    No. The only context where this would make sense is if you're writing custom samples for the client as you're applying to a copywriting job. But that would ONLY be for the application phase of the job. While I'm glad you're not hurting for money, what's underneath this question? Usually...

    Lady Rich - I need your advice

    IDEA SOCIAL MEDIA EXECUTION 
    I watched your video and found it really engaging! Your use of the technique of creating an open loop at the beginning was very effective, and I found myself wanting to keep watching to find out who Lady Rich was! - One very minor quibble was that there seemed to be a small contradiction between...

    I don't take creatine and would have to Google it to even really know what it is :playful: but a similar thing happens with Arrowroot powder, which is an ingredient I use in gluten-free baking. You can get a 6-oz package for $8.99. Or you can get a 16-oz package for $9.99 Or you can get a 5-lb...

    Are IQ (Smarts) and Success Correlated?

    HOT! CHAT 
    I attended a training once where the instructor told the story of how he paid to attend an expensive mastermind. At the in-person event, it was pretty clear that one of the business owners in attendance had a "below average" IQ compared to others. My instructor was standing around with a few...

    What 1 side hustle can I quickly start where in I can add value @35 y.o.?

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    Here's a problem I ran into recently. I was doing some copywriting for an Australian company back between 2021-2022. The boss had hired 10 or 12 employees from the Philippines. The employees we found all came from BPOs. The issue we kept running into was that BPOs had basically trained the...

    Are IQ (Smarts) and Success Correlated?

    HOT! CHAT 
    One way you could test this hypothesis is to look at the data on Mensa members and how successful they are. Is there any correlation between being having an IQ in the top 2% and being successful? Two percent of the US population is 6 million people. Are the 6 million people with the highest...

    I agree, it's unprofessional. I wonder if you should put this into the "Required Reading" post that people have to read when they join? It's like - one person asks a polite question and you answer and they're like "WOW I didn't expect to get an answer from you, Thank you so much!" And then 15...

    Well-written post that packs a massive emotional impact. Congratulations on lighting a fire under me on those things that I know I should have started already. But I'm sure you must be gutted after putting so much effort into the composition. Sorry it ended up that way. Even if you didn't...

    ChatGPT AI is a huge breakthrough, a Google killer

    - AI - 
    Yeah but those things are free because Google makes its money elsewhere. And if Google's revenue stream dries up from Google Ads because people are using ChatGPT instead of googling stuff and clicking on ads, then what? They're not going to keep free and useful products alive out of the...
