    Have Any Of You Fastlaners Taught English In China?

    I am seriously considering moving to Asia (preferably China), to teach English and would love to hear some Fastlaner perspectives. This will be an improvement in my current living situation, will allow me to start saving, and give me time to develop my online business. I am 25 and have a...

    Sounds like a plan! I've already got some practice material that just needs edited, so I could easily throw up a niche site. The hardest part would be the web design but I can handle basic word press sites. I'll give it a try and post the link here when I'm done.

    What do you guys think of Jordan Belfort?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    "Buyer beware" doesn't really excuse someone if they lie to sell something. Deception is a form of force. You might as well steal from the victim's house.

    He is the textbook example of a socially successful psychopath. I am surprised he gets any praise around here...

    Two of my products (the "profitable" ones), have turned out to be junk. Lesson #2: Do your due diligence and test your items thoroughly before putting them on the market. Looking forward to lots of returns!

    Not long after my last post I lowered my prices and went for a nap... I woke up to 8 items sold :P So most of the colours are still selling anyway. That's a good lesson learned though. Tell suppliers exactly what you want - or you'll get shafted. "Addicting" is definitely the right word!

    Just received my shipment of 100 items. I'm quite disappointed as I have been sent unpopular colours, rather than the popular ones that were in my sample of 10. I did have the feeling that I should add a note with the order, asking for specific colours...

    EXECUTION 
    I want to be a generalist freelancer to generate some kind of steady income for myself. I also think copywriting is an excellent skill to have that will help me in the future. I want to build a true fastlane business by selling my own products, so I figured copywriting was a good starting point.

    This is the piece of writing mentioned in my last progress report. I was not directly selling anything, but it was still meant to be persuasive. http://www.dksbsolutions.com/10-reasons-why-your-business-should-be-using-cloud-applications.php http://www.dksbsolutions.com/process.php

    Thanks for the honest feedback guys. I really appreciate it. @Kyle Tully – I am keen to try an affiliate campaign, or at least rewrite an existing sales letter. How would you go about choosing something to rewrite? And what would be a reasonable budget for testing a campaign? I am guessing...

    Relisted at my original price and made a sale a few hours later so maybe I'm good to go.

    I have sold my items quickly on ebay by selling at the same price or just a little bit cheaper than the competition.

    I'm not super successful or anything but I can relate to what you are saying. I am a semi-pro musician and struggled with the same doubt for years when I was about your age. Why couldn't I have started as a toddler or in primary school? Why didn't I take music at high school? Why didn't I...

    Awesome :) I have tried samples of 4 different products from Chinese suppliers. All of them are small ticket items since that’s all I can afford right now. I have ideas for new items but all my cash is tied up in stock. I need to start doing book keeping because it takes me far too long to...
