    EXECUTION

    Getting Unscripted while having small kids

    PEOPLE 
    I’m in a similar situation , I have a 2 year old and a 8 month old. I’m yet to get my business off the ground though so you are ahead of me! You have early mornings and late nights as your options to get anything done one advantage you have over your childless peers is that you understand every...

    My 3 Illegal Storefronts.

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    If you are not producing a product, you are a middle man. How do middle men make money? - Provide value to the seller; and/or - Provide value to the buyer We can't do your thinking for you. You are literally asking us "how can i buy low and sell high, any ideas?"

    Programming For Entrepreneurs

    Thank you, this is very interesting! There is a thread here on the forum with a title along the lines of “the cold email that started a $500 million company”. Might be an alternative way for you to get the info you are after.

    Programming For Entrepreneurs

    questions like what are your dreams, what does success look like, what is your why etc that was where I noped out of the survey so there could be more after that

    Programming For Entrepreneurs

    There is no charge but the “prize” is a 30 minute sales call with you. Look at the questions you are asking in the survey. Only a small fraction are about programming and it’s pain points. The rest are fishing questions to give you ammo to use on the sales call. That’s the way I read it anyway.

    Programming For Entrepreneurs

    I started doing the survey to help you out but it is clearly a sales funnel. This should be in the marketplace/self promo thread

    Looking for peers: absolute beasts in full stack software engineering

    PEOPLE 
    For what it’s worth I don’t think you need to be an “absolute beast” to be an entrepreneur; you only have to be “good enough” to solve the problem directly in front of you. Yes, the zuck was an absolute beast but he didn’t identify as an entrepreneur, he was an artist that wanted to push his own...

    I got a little off track from my original intention, and it's amazing!

    SIDE HUSTLE WEB DESIGN 
    While bespoke solutions can be attractive, there is merit in not "reinventing the wheel" unless you really have to. FreeCodeCamp's forum isnt built from scratch, and why should it be?

    My first business attempt failed

    Why did you call it quits? 7 customers is not a failure, nor is a 7% conversion rate! If you are offering leads for a certain industry, is there any real difference in how many customers you have since you would just be dividing the leads over a larger group anyway?

    Stagflation

    INVESTING 
    There is no supply shortage. The issue is demand. Factories are nowhere near 100% output capacity. Wage/price spirals are not really a concern anymore as any increase to wages just incentivises companies to invest more in automation, which weakens demand for workers. imo the future is in...

    Opportunities

    MINDSET 
    Forget scale for a second and focus on need. What is a problem you experience (and probably put up with) in your daily life? What are your friends/coworkers/soccer buddies always complaining about? Is there a solution to their problem (this requires research)? If not, can you make and sell the...

    You got this!! Reminds me of a quote from James Allen - "The will to do springs from the knowledge that we can do"

    Focus and subtraction or shave the yak?

    Dont try and solve problems that dont yet exist. First get a customer. Do it all yourself until you are too busy, then start hiring out the work in small parts until you find a good worker. Then, hand all the work over to them so you can focus on growing, automating etc
