    Try to Not Cry

    OFF-TOPIC 
    You hear alot about kids being told their mature for their age, but an eleven year old with that kind of wisdom is remarkable. I've never seen anything like that before.

    Packaging Question

    My items are ping pong balls and I'll be selling them initially in packages of six. I'm expecting to sell them in small quantities over ebay to test the market and then I'm going to launch a web site and try to sell them in bulk through wholesale.

    Packaging Question

    Hey guys, thanks for the advice. I've been researching for a while on ThomasNet and other web pages using key terms like "packaging" and "plastic packaging," but I keep getting companies who specialize in industrial products (like ziplock bags.) Am I searching under the right terminology?

    Packaging Question

    I'm thinking about launching a product based business and I'm currently in the due diligence phase to see if it's feasible. I need a way to package the products and my current theory is to buy a large quantity of small plastic sized bags and then having cardboard labels printed with my logo. I...

    What would you have majored in?

    I think it depends on the college. For example, I'm going to community college in January when I'll be majoring in Business Administration. If I can pull off slightly better grades in the next two years I'll be able to transfer to NYU or Syracuse. NYU offers Business with a concentration in real...

    Maximizing on the car industry/green revolution

    Fanocks, great points VR4, I'm thinking along those same lines. I'd like to create a system or business about the automotive industry but I may start with a blog to build a customer base. I'll probably go with the idea of spreading consumer awareness of future automotive technology that isn't...

    Maximizing on the car industry/green revolution

    Again I'm not trying to be political and if I am I'm sorry. Elon Musk invested $7.5M in Tesla and I'm assuming he knows what he's doing. There's never been this type of electric car revolution before with these types of long lasting, powerful engines. In the '70s during Jimmy Carter's...

    Maximizing on the car industry/green revolution

    If you didn't know already, congress is voting today about the $25B proposed bailout for the Big Three Automakers (this isn't meant to be political :)). Ontop of that, the electric car revolution has been taking over and there are many new opportunities for emerging car companies. I was just...

    My small pit-stop on the journey towards the fastlane!

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Congrats Mike! That is a sick Viper. You don't see too many of those in upstate New York which makes them that much more special. I agree, making a pit stop every now and then isn't so bad. Enjoy it.

    Role Models

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Haha it was an amazing movie! Best of the year easily. It's one of those comedies that are going to be remembered next to the Chevy Chase/Will Ferrell/Adam Sandler movies. I would say that Sean William Scott is amazing, but Paul Rudd made it his own. See it! :thumbsup:

    Fastest Business to Start

    Great idea! I've heard similar ideas like this before but with other niches. What would be involved in getting something like a lead generation hotline set-up though? I've had ideas with something a little similar but with the restaurant industry. Would you need to get a special software built...

    Looking for Hosting for newbies

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I know BlueHost had a really cool feature with Wordpress, but people who've actually hosted with them didn't seem to like them. If you're just trying to set-up an ecommerce store, check out Vollusion. But if you're looking for a web site that's more than just a store you're best bet is to list...

    Fastest Business to Start

    Good points Fanocks. But servicefly, can you elaborate a bit more about this statement? How would a business get the customers drooling without any advertising dollars spent? And is it possible to get them drooling with an already existing product/service? Thank you

    Fastest Business to Start

    Regarding ServiceFly’s original question, I think for me personally the “fastest†way of business thinking is by combining a bunch of different theories I’ve learned and making them requirements for my potential web site start ups. I start initially with the basic Fastlane belief of being...

    How to $ucceed with No Money!!

    HOT! 
    Hey Steve, thanks for your reply. I have a couple other questions. I've been thinking about doing something similar to this for a while but with music (like a guitar/drum dropship retailer for example.) 1.) Did you find a product/industry before you paid the $300 for the WWB subscription? Or...

    How to $ucceed with No Money!!

    HOT! 
    Good point. But how would a fastlaner find a supplier in a higher market? It seems like using World Wide Brands would be counterproductive since it has a large flow of people which increases competition. Would finding a high quality product and then contacting each distributor individually be a...

    Critique my site layout and business plan

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Hey Lighthouse. I agree with you. I think my biggest problem is my limited funding which has made me think twice about launching some projects that won't see any returns. I agree though that sometimes it's better to "ready-fire-aim" because learning by doing is the best way. I have literally a...

    Critique my site layout and business plan

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Hey Michael. I actually never went through with this venture. The idea was unique and helped the customer (which is critical) but after reading MJ's post about being the driver not the passenger, I realized that profiting off of Orbitz and NASCAR.com affiliate products was a hard way to make a...

    It's playoff time!!!

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I can't believe it. What a disappointing World Series for Longoria. And to be the first out in the last inning with a pop up pretty much sums it up.
