    The *New* Endangered Species... Your Job.

    HOT! 
    This video makes me SO EXCITED. The future is going to be a wonderful place. I get REALLY angry at people who fear such changes. It's unfounded, selfish, and shortsighted. The idea that "jobs" are even a thing or a concern is retarded. I remember watching the news and there was a PersonOnStreet...

    So? You either did a poor job of writing compelling copy or you did a poor job of outsourcing that shiz. Either way the next steps are the same. Erase 90% of what you have keep the compelling bits ??? Profit I also said your pricepoint might have been a bit off... I said maybe lower it down...

    Some thoughts on the sales page, for starters: I decided to audiorecord it, so I could say what came to my mind as I looked through the page. Hope you don't mind. https://soundcloud.com/dennisduty/thoughts-on-weightstenics (NSFW)

    Seeking a business partner

    PEOPLE 
    I don't think it's going to fly 50/50. It seems like what you're basically looking for is a super-affiliate who's used to making 70-90% comission on digital products. Sales are worth their own salt and there are a buttload of opportunities out there for world class sales people other than yours...

    Why Haven't You Started?

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    Totes. We feel like we need a grasp on things, what things are, how they work, etc. before we start trying to break them down and re engineer them. At the beggining of the journey, you're always the most knowledge hungry. Even so, there are a TON of subniches and you must be finding yourself...

    Why Haven't You Started?

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    Wow, yeah, this is a MAJOR setback and a HUGE downfall to people starting out. Sometimes the information overload affects us in multiple ways and like you said, one problem can bleed into another. I've def. suffered from your first issue. A lack of confidence, not really knowing "what's...

    Why Haven't You Started?

    Thanks for responding :) So basically you've got this idea that should work "IN THEORY" but you've hit a few road bumps. Some things aren't coming super easy to you and the lack of a concrete "This 100% WILL WORK" keeps you from dedicating more time/resources/pushing harder through the doubts...

    Why Haven't You Started?

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    A general question to those of you who WANT to start, who feel they should start, but things just keep getting in the way of success. What is it? Family? Fear? Lack of information? Too much information? Environment? Previous failure? No direction? No ideas? Lack of confidence? Let's talk...

    Has anyone built a board game?

    HOT! 
    Me and my roommates did this once a week in college. Was probably the reason I formed such damn good friends and dated my college girlfriend.

    Has anyone built a board game?

    HOT! 
    It's funny. I started putting out short audio recordings of myself speaking on various topics (basically a 'podcast' that nobody listens to because I don't promote it) to improve my on-the-fly speaking skills. This became today's 'episode': Technology is TAKING OVER! What does the future hold...

    Is Using Amazon FBA Risking Too Much Control?

    EXECUTION 
    Seconded all of this. FBA is a service. Figure out if the service is worth it to you. I've worked with 3 people who use the service, they all did the math, it was worth it for them. Doesn't mean it'll be worth it for you, but always run the numbers rather than taking blind advice from...

    Why I don't need a billion dollars

    HOT! MINDSET 
    LMAO. yup. Regarding the rest of what you said: It's true.... most people aren't very ambitious. And like it or not: MOST PEOPLE ON THIS FORUM are sidewalkers with big dreams. Maybe I'll be disliked for saying it, but it's true. Reading a book and joining a community is just the first step of...

    Why I don't need a billion dollars

    Why I want a billion dollars: Build my dreamhome (a custom built modern castle) = 25 million Build my dream office/studio (yet another castle) = 25 million Research and Development into underwater construction advancements = 100-300 million (hoping to find a way to build an underwater castle...

    Is this kind of headline/guarantee a good idea? (copywriting advice)

    IDEA MARKETING 
    You have nothing to worry about. Normally you won't see refunds on this sort of claim, and for this specific claim your refund rate will be WAY LOW. Why? The type of person who can't get laid in 30 days of effort isn't assertive enough to ask for their money back to begin with. They'll talk...

    Has anyone built a board game?

    HOT! 
    All your suggestions presume there's no longer an existing market for board games, which is just not true. It's not massmarket like it once was, but it's not unusual for a board game enthusiast (adult who plays with other adults) to drop $150+ for a base game and $70 for each expansion to the...

    Has anyone built a board game?

    HOT! 
    I've done some intense research in this area. A project I have 'on deck' has a boardgame component to it. Head over to http://boardgamegeek.com/ and check out their print+play games. People post their homemade games there all the time for review and input. See how they're structured, and post...

    a brand name

    They named it Amazon for multiple reasons, mostly practical. Amazon was originally called Kadabra because it was 'magical.' Back then Yahoo was how you found new websites, and it was alphabetical, so they changed the name to "Amazon" so it'd be listed first for books/bookstores. Also, Kadabra...

    Need some advice: Make or Break it Year

    HOT! 
    No, you don't. You're attached to the work you've already put in. It sounds like you already know the solution and just won't let yourself accept it. You're limiting your scope and you know it. The way to fix your B+M business is to magically make more wealthy customers appear in your town...

    We are the music makers, and we are the dreamers of dreams

    MINDSET 
    We are the music makers, And we are the dreamers of dreams, Wandering by lone sea-breakers, And sitting by desolate streams;— World-losers and world-forsakers, On whom the pale moon gleams: Yet we are the movers and shakers Of the world for ever, it seems. -Arthur O'Shaughnessy
