    Fastlane idea for the taking..

    IDEA 
    Doesn't Rent-A-Center do this? Not sure if they do this with cell phones however.

    SEO is dead... or is it?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I'll chime in on this, since it seems a lot of people have the wrong impression of SEO. To really, truly just let quality content bring you traffic, you need one of two things: Time and/or a big break (ie "going viral"). Depending upon what industry you are in, and the competition, original...

    Challenge: Go Live In 14 Days

    Given the short period of time, will you be using paid traffic? Just saying, expect to lose quite a bit of money before getting profitable. Prior display or PPC experience would definitely come in handy.

    Your opinion on my business idea would be appreciated

    IDEA 
    Sorry pal, but we can't make your decisions for you. If you can do it, do it. If not, pick a different path.

    Nobody Responds to your Cold E-mails? You might be Selfish.

    MINDSET 
    Just wanted to point out that the same can be said for cold calls or any other means of communicating with prospects. But you are spot on with your analysis.

    New to Online Business - please assist

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    You don't need advice on the process. You need some down and dirty research to get to the point where you can actually ask questions that will help you. Right now it seems as if you are looking for a "process handout". There is just too much involved to properly explain to a novice. My...

    How Do I Track Down the Owner Of a Domain

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Correct, a standard WHOIS search would be your first course of action. Most domain owners will have some type of privacy protection in place which will send you to the privacy company themselves. If their name and contact is not on the whois, try emailing them via "admin@(domainname.com)...

    A Fastlane in Fitness, Six Pack Bags

    Oh this is nice! Kinda makes me want to get back into powerlifting, just because I won't have to carry around 15 bottles of supplements!

    Fine.....I QUIT !

    MINDSET 
    Good luck brother! I quit my job almost 3 months ago (1st of April). Let me just tell you it gets worse before it gets better, then it just gets awesome. I'm almost making more now than I was at my 50k/yr job, and damn does it feel good to not have to wake up to an alarm clock!

    Building a website better then Groupon

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Yeah, I'd stay clear of this space if I were you. Unless you can make an aggregator for stuff already out there of course. Keep in mind Google is also entering this space as well.

    FTC Crackdown On Search PPC - Deceptive Advertising?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    FTC Tells Search Providers to Distinguish Ads More Clearly | Digital - Advertising Age Being someone who uses PPC daily, I do not feel that the ads are deceptive by any means. It is clearly stated on both Bing and Google where the ads are at(Bing doesn't use much contrast, though). This is...

    How I stepped out of my comfort zone and landed a client.

    Solid stuff man, you asked all of the right questions in regards to how you did. Real-time feedback from your market, the shit is priceless. Don't forget to ask for referrals when you aren't selling yourself.

    For My Internet Business Should I learn Programming or Hire VA?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I have a mixed opinion about this. If you are going to run an internet business, I would recommend you get a solid grasp on the basics: HTML, CSS, PHP, Javascript. You can become well acquainted with these languages within a months time and they will bear fruits for years to come. Justifying...

    The fastest growing company ever ?

    EXECUTION 
    So, what you are saying is: Unless I learn to program I can't make millions OR billions of dollars selling apps? What if I just hired the best programmer around and I knew exactly what the market wanted right then and there? Well, odds are I am going to make some money. I actually had an idea...

    Can websites sell for millions with just traffic, no revenue?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    As ZDS said, if this is a market place, why would you have a trouble generating revenue? Because with those numbers(200,000 visitors daily), it would not be hard at all. Just running your own advertisements relevant to the site with crappy affiliate offers converting at around 1% of the time...

    Where to start in sales?

    Too true. I did face-to-face sales in the construction industry for about two years, it is what eventually got me out of the industry. The skills I learned, the techniques I honed, and the experience in general is priceless. Once you learn to sell, you will always have that skill and it really...

    Eating out almost everyday

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    Depends on where you are eating out at really. If it is fast food, don't sacrifice your health. That will eventually catch up to you. Anything else I think to be much more expensive. Personally, I get by on around $120 per month on groceries. My main course is chicken, with more chicken. It's...

    Retirement Investing with $1000

    INVESTING 
    My personal recommendation would be keep saving until you find a way to turn it into more money. Since it is such a small amount, it will be of most value to you if it is readily available when you really need it. Say when you start working on a fastlane system.
