    Coming to America w. $40,000 in my pocket

    INTRO 
    If you're not paying housing then stay there. There's more opportunities there if your basic living expenses are covered. Just make sure your parents in law and wife are on board with the entrepreneurial journey. For a lot of entrepreneurs it takes years before you start making money. If they...

    Which way to turn ?

    You're money chasing and will likely continue to fail with your current mindset. Need a mindset change before starting something new. I'd start by reading the two books this forum is built around. After that, I'd reassess any ideas you have.

    Coming to America w. $40,000 in my pocket

    INTRO 
    Orange County is really expensive if you're trying to get an income stream going. $40,000 is enough to start most businesses, however, in Orange County you'll be running through that amount fairly quickly and stressing yourself out. Trucking is an option. There's high demand. However, you won't...

    The Poor Man I Cant get a job: Flipping Stuff Log

    HOT! SIDE HUSTLE 
    Good luck man. If I was you, I'd strongly consider sending over your resume to the couple people on this forum that offered. I'm sure the feedback you'd get from @biophase, @Kak, and @ZCP would be worth it.

    Be TRULLY Unscripted (Don’t copy MJ De-Marco)

    MINDSET 
    @lunga ngcobo - It's a decent post, but you're action faking right now. Where's your progress thread of the houses you're building? Start building something. Post some pictures. Concentrate on that. Need to be pushing forward.

    How do you handle your sales processes? How is your pipeline setup for keeping track of leads and their status?

    MARKETING 
    Oh, to add onto that: It won't be hard to keep track of if you start off small. You can use Google Sheets, the Quickmail CRM, something simple like Streak, etc. Doesn't have to be complicated. It only gets tougher once you're being overwhelmed, which at the start you won't be. In terms of...

    How do you handle your sales processes? How is your pipeline setup for keeping track of leads and their status?

    MARKETING 
    This is where the money is made. The demo's. You need to get people to do the demo's. If I was you, this is how I'd play it: 1. Create an offer/incentive for the client. "Get 10% off when we launch for doing a demo in the next 2 weeks". You have to make an expiration date on it. Otherwise no...

    Forum Self-Promotion Opp: Offers, Links, Your Biz, More (August 2019)

    SELF-PROMOTION 
    For every $30 you give to the Sankara Eye Foundation: Home | SEF, I'll get on a 30 minute call with you when I'm driving around, and we can talk about whatever you want. I'm not saying it's worth a $30 charitable donation, but that's the offer.

    Is this crazy or a good idea?

    IDEA 
    I just skimmed your post. But you're trying to use the internet to cure internet addiction? Your software might help, but it doesn't seem anywhere near as good as something that's not on the internet.

    Before you made your first $1 online, did you ever felt like giving up?

    EXECUTION RANT 
    The reason I'm asking these questions: A lot of us when we start go on the internet seeking answer to how we can make money. Since we're on the internet, the best articles we find are ranked high by SEO guru's that have a natural proclivity towards internet businesses. So the articles we find...

    Starting your own Customs brokerage

    Or maybe it's pretty straightforward: 1) Work for another brokerage to find out how much they're charging and how they operate. 2) Figure out a way to acquire clients. It'd be the same as starting a B2B "accounting" firm or something similar. A "freight forwarding" company. A B2B "law office"...

    But why? $1 made offline = $1 made online.

    UPSCALE: What do you think of my invention?

    HOT! 
    Is it your age? Or is it that you're mentally handicapping yourself and looking for excuses to not go the "hard route"? Our brains automatically look for justification if there's something that we can't imagine. "I don't know how to manufacture in China, therefore, I don't want to manufacture...

    UPSCALE: What do you think of my invention?

    HOT! 
    Why does it have to be made in the U.S.? Do a quick test, and I'm sure you'll find out instantly that people don't care, and if they do care, they'd still prefer an option at half the price even if that means it's Made in Asia.

    INTRO 
    Also knock this bullshit out of your head. You tried for 4 years. You failed. It wasn't easy. Boo hoo. But that's not reason enough to kill yourself. Most people never try. You at least did. And from those that do try to be entrepreneurs, few make it. It's rough. It's hard work. And it's...

    Why didn't you want to be an engineer? Finishing university with an engineering background would have opened up a lot of business opportunities for you. Engineers are known for creating products that no one else can because they have a skill set that no one else has. @ZCP is an example of a...
