    Thanks for sharing Gabbe! Funny you share that one actually; Smart Alto is a company I'm familiar with and a very similar business. My company and Hassan's solve different problems, but the target user (high performing agent) is the same person and the cost is a high monthly subscription...

    That's That's right. At least, that's the hypothesis since there's a freelancer market for it. I'm currently in the process of getting in touch with real estate agents for an interview process to find out if that's actually the case though

    Hi everyone, Hope you all are doing well! This is a first post in a process thread. These threads are so infinitely valuable (longtime lurker here-thank you to all who make this forum valuable!) that I hoped to give back by writing one of my own. To be fair, TBD on if I can actually do anything...

    Is this a good time to quit job? *options inside - need input*

    HOT! 
    Agreeing with others: going for it when you have that much of a cushion/low living expenses makes sense. Let me push on one thing though: why advertising? I think, in almost all circumstances, it makes sense to begin by getting customers the old fashion way....going out into the world and...

    How did Spanx become profitable despite China?!

    If I had to summarize the messages in this thread: Branding matters Caring about your customers matters Working your butt off matters If you achieve all three, you can win on a product that isn't the standard "you need to be 100X better than your competition" belief. If you truly have a...

    Credit to you for taking action AND finding a way to make a profit while getting a product to people that they need during this time! How long do you plan to keep buying inventory? I'd imagine at some point, everyone who wants to buy an extra freezer has one

    Why are you vegetarian/ vegan?

    HEALTH 
    I'm not Vegan, but I've thought about it for the energy boost. If it supplies an energy boost, then it's absolutely worth it!

    If you had 6 Figures sitting in a savings bank account, where else would you put it at?

    INVESTING 
    Just a hypothetical example! However, if you are okay with investing out of state, there are lots of locations around the country where you can get that kind property!

    There's an urban dictionary definition for entrepreneur that I love: Entrepreneur: Those willling to risk their own money for freedom, rather than exchanging their freedom

    Does a Search Volume of 2,900 Represent a Scalable Business Niche?

    It's a touch low to base an entire business around. But, look at the keyword difficulty. If it's low, you could use this as "starting point" Then, you can move into "GCSE (insert subject here)" Then, move into the next one SEO is a 6-12 month ball game, but it could generate significant...

    Best of luck!! Cold calling will absolutely be your highest conversion rate. But, if it's going to stop you from getting started, then maybe you should do cold email. If you want to go on the cold email route, expect a meeting booking rate of 3-5%. If you convert 30% of those to sales, you...

    Hey anyone know where to get coronavirus supplies wholesale?

    I'd hesitate to go into this too aggressively. Your problem is going to be the long lead time to get wholesale products, sinc most are in Asia. In the best of circumstances, you're talking 6 weeks. With Corona virus, maybe we're talking a few months. If Coronavirus isn't a thing in a few...

    If you had 6 Figures sitting in a savings bank account, where else would you put it at?

    INVESTING 
    I'd second the house hack. Look for a property up to 4 units and you can get 20% down, or less, financing. But, let's say you have $100,000. At at 25% down payment, you could buy up to $400K For $400K, depending on market, you could get a really solid B class 10 unit property. You live in one...
