    The 2016 Fastlane Summit (Tickets, Dates, Etc.)

    MEETUPS 
    Same for me. I have a few units that are more of a long-term strategy than trying to fastlane REI. With the Toronto market being as hot as it is, they're building equity fast though and I may want to cash some of it out to grow the portfolio. Edit: Hoping @SteveO will be there so some of his...

    What does Experience tell us?

    MINDSET 
    My experience is that younger people still live in a self-centered world. They haven't yet had a lot of the life experiences that bring out their sense of connectedness to family and community. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that as parents we don't teach them those things, it's just that...

    Help naming our pet subscription service

    People always get hung up on a name, but the name really doesn't matter so long as it's easy to remember. I was guilty of this my first few attempts but quickly learned how irrelevant it is. It's all too easy to get caught up in trying to think of a name that's relevant and descriptive about the...

    I saw Daymond John speak yesterday

    THIS... ...is what I struggle with locally. With a 9-5, 4 kids, rental properties and working on my side hustle nights it's damn hard to get out there and find people willing to be a mentor. So I'll take a moment of gratitude and thank all of you here in the forum. Whether you know it or...

    The 2016 Fastlane Summit (Tickets, Dates, Etc.)

    MEETUPS 
    As an Insider, "I approve of this message." Just waiting for the Mrs to make up her mind about the trip before I lock in our travel arrangements. If I don't get a ticket I guess I'll have a relaxing weekend spent eavesdropping on the rest of you. :bookworm:

    What does a guy have to do to earn 100 points around here.

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I haven't posted much but I'm hovering around a 1.2. It's not great, but MJ is at a 1.225 so I think I'm in good company so far. :)

    Toronto Fastlane Meetup - Winter Edition

    MEETUPS 
    As much as I want to be there, I can't do the afternoon of the 14th. Personal conflict...family first...Set up whatever works for the group and I'll be there if I can.

    Toronto Fastlane Meetup - Winter Edition

    MEETUPS 
    November is a tough month for my schedule with lots of travel and family commitments. I was at the last meetup and interested in hearing some updates from everyone. I've got another thing I'm working away at...not sure how far it will go, but I'm sure as hell going to find out! :) Count me in.

    I see a couple of posts here talking about fear. I have to ask...really with all sincerity... What are you afraid of? I'm not just saying that to challenge you; I genuinely want to know! I'm very fortunate right now in my life. I don't have that fear with my business. So let me see if I can...

    There was no offense intended by my comments. Hope none was taken. If you're giving it your maximum effort and the returns aren't there then I'd look at the model. Are you not providing enough value to attract customers from the large pool available? Or is it more about the market being too...

    Lack of product. Waiting for responses from Private Labelers about costs for branded products and current name brands about B2B wholesaling opportunities. The former are slow to respond and frustrating. The latter are reviewing my business model and well...big corporations that don't move fast...

    Is that the sound of money chasing I hear? ;) Why pick? Can you automate 'A' enough to free your time to chase 'B'? Also you're comparing yourself to top earners in the industry. Is there a reason for that? Why are you limiting your potential this way? If it's because you're using similar...

    My startup needs help

    HOT! 
    Front of the flyer is too wordy in my opinion. Be concise. People's minds are not focused on what you want when you hand this to them. It will be a 'read later if I have time' thing. Even then they'll be going through a lot more in their life than they're used to. I'd also flip the wording a...

    Energy Drink Company FINISH BY 12/31/16

    EXECUTION 
    Couldn't agree more. Getting shelf space is the key to this and the biggest obstacle. Smaller stores mean less exposure and slower growth. College campuses might be a solid place to start. For this to go anywhere you're going to have to be very, VERY persistent. It's going to be a hard sell for...

    Ferrari IPO ? Will You Be Investing - Yes or No, Why?

    INVESTING 
    They also announced a new entry model Ferrari. This was done to address shareholders demands to increase market share and directly compete with Porsche. The convertible model will be in dealerships in time for Christmas! A hard top version is expected late in Q2.

    Ferrari IPO ? Will You Be Investing - Yes or No, Why?

    INVESTING 
    I'd rather own a Ferrari and watch it depreciate than buy stocks and hope they appreciate. I don't believe that anything good can come from this IPO in the long term. Stock price will jump after the IPO but ultimately that won't matter. Shareholder expectations and quarterly accountability will...
