    Luxury Restroom Trailers

    $1500 a day felt HIGH. I did a quick search on what it should cost and got $350-700. That felt more reasonable. I would say yes, you need to improve the website. There are spelling errors, the pictures are obviously generic, the info and copy isn't exciting. If I were doing this, I'd add my...

    Kyle Keegan Radio Show

    NOTABLE! HOT! EXECUTION 
    I can’t pay attention to things without actively listening. When I read, listen to a podcast/audiobook, study, etc, I need near silence to take it in and retain it. I love to read before bed. But my wife likes to watch tv and my kids like to do what kids do. So I can’t read anything I want to...

    Photos from the Bunker (Our Fastlane Photo Journal)

    HOT! 
    I’ve done a lot outside of business these last few months. Been mushroom hunting quite often. Built a fire pit area. Built a deck, complete with 120” outdoor screen and a projector.

    Kyle Keegan Radio Show

    NOTABLE! HOT! EXECUTION 
    Yes it is. He said you had planned on dedicating 37 minutes to listening to the episode, but he purposely let the file run for 30 extra minutes of silence. Those 30 minutes are for CEO time. Instead of packing boxes or setting up something, you should have used those 30 minutes for big picture...

    Kyle Keegan Radio Show

    NOTABLE! HOT! EXECUTION 
    @Kak I’ve really been enjoying the show. Love to see that you took it to this level so quickly, but it’s not really surprising. I like to be able to sit down and listen attentively, not while I'm also doing something else. As such, I'm only just now getting through the @MoneyDoc episode. I...

    Kill Bigger Incubator

    MARKETPLACE 
    I’ve been meaning to get back here and let everyone know they need to get on this. If you haven’t, I don’t know what the holdup is. My last few weeks have been filled up with opportunity. Meeting marketing agencies and getting ready to go live in a few months with a better functioning product...

    Ecom / product business metrics

    MARKETING 
    I have an opportunity to get some local entrepreneurs and a university involved in my business. Specifically, we are focusing on social media, branding, and marketing. I wanted to see if others have metrics they use to track these or any other area. I know there are some fairly common metrics...

    Importing - Factory Payment Terms

    SOURCING 
    I'm confused on how the new payment terms have anything to do with the shipping agent you go with. Are they related or were you just bringing it up. Anyhow, on the new terms, it seems more complicated, unnecessarily so. I use a wire transfer, so with a 30/70 split, I'm paying two each time. I...

    Can I start a generic/umbrella LLC if I don’t know exactly what I want to focus on?

    Yes, you can do generic names. GameOver Trading works. Then you can do business with that. If in the future you want to start a towel making business, you can do with that original name or do another llc, either owned by the first llc or separately. There may be tax implications to doing it...

    Formal Education is Overrated!(or not?)

    MINDSET RANT 
    Are you saying they are successful entrepreneurs because they went to college? And that the more prestigious the college, the more statistically likely they are to be billionaire successful? Is it possible they had the qualities/traits to be billionaire successful before going to college and...

    Fastlane to Shark Tank with a Physical Product

    EXECUTION 
    Are you using an IP lawyer to file the provisional or doing it yourself? I know you've already got drawings done, but provisionals I've had filed were just descriptions, no drawings needed. You might argue better safe than sorry, but what if the design deviates from the drawing as you progress...

    'Deaths of despair' soaring among Gen Z & millennials: 'It's the economy, stupid'

    OFF-TOPIC 
    It seems to be a favorite past time to complain about kids these days. Everyone talking about how bad they had it as a kid and how hard it was growing up, and all the adults when you were kids were saying the exact same thing. People just don’t like things that are different than they are. It’s...

    MARKETPLACE 
    I’ve been in this for a few months now. I don’t want to give away the secret sauce, but I’ll say this: I started my project thinking I’d come out of it with 2-4 million. I currently expect to personally have a few hundred million in the next 6-8 years.

    Informal Dinner at Underdog's BBQ in Erie, PA (Undercover Billionaire's Restaurant)

    GOLD! 
    Yes, it was a great time. Food was awesome. And everyone on the show that was there was incredibly genuine. Dawn even setup a wine tour for us this morning and got them to open early so we could make our flights and joined us for the tour. And the owner gave us all free bottles and handled...

    Going for it. Ecommerce.

    NOTABLE! 
    Been a while since I read the thread, but if I recall, this was seasonal, right? If so, given the season, doesn't it make sense ads don't convert? Are people just window shopping now, to maybe come back in the future? What about the other thing you were working on? I can't remember if you made...

    Invent Right Program... Yes or no?

    Can I help you a little? It appears you’re new, and the way to get ahead here is help others out where you can, even if it’s only in a small way. If you can’t, and you just have to ask a question now, at least put some thought and research into your question. What do you think of it? What’s...

    Bought 2 new websites from Shopify Exchange

    EXECUTION 
    What are your concerns with the drop shipper not having inventory in stock once you start driving traffic? I would think about having a second source of the same products as a backup plan.

    Bought 2 new websites from Shopify Exchange

    EXECUTION 
    I don't think it would be a viable business model. I don't see it being scalable. And making one and selling one are two different things. Even if you made two a week, with a 100% sale rate, at an average of $500 (generous in my opinion), you're talking $50k / yr. That's before expenses that you...
