    What's ethical?

    MINDSET 
    Ethics are really important to me. I feel like it is unethical to advertise your product using awesome copy that tells all the great features your product has, when in reality your product isn't that great and is essentially average. That awesome copy becomes a lie used to trick people into...

    $500,000 kick starter in two days… Sense Sleep System

    Interesting campaign. My big issue with the product is that they store your sleep data in the cloud where the NSA is guaranteed to tap it. The Sense Pills have mics, so its not unreasonable to assume that your bedtime conversations will be stored in the cloud as well. I was reading the comments...

    Jason's How to Build Wealth & Golden Nuggets

    GOLD! MINDSET 
    When a person is looking to start a new business, is there anything that they can do to project a customer LTV? I am looking at a product that retails for $20-25, so to hit that $60 number, the customer would have to order from me 3 times over their life. I don't have any major ideas for upsells...

    Getting lost in travel... from your desk.

    OFF-TOPIC 
    If anything, it would be a fun way to take vacations for free. Book a few big clients in the same city for $1,500 a pop, and then go have a week long vacation. haha

    8 Eyewear: From Idea, to Launch, to Growth (And Quitting the Job)

    IDEA 
    Just something I noticed when looking at your site; the pictures of inside of the sunglasses is strange. I love the front and side views, but the picture from the very back doesn't do anything for me. I think what is happening is an optical illusion, called the 'hollow head' illusion. See this...

    The price of marketing

    MARKETING 
    Yea, that is the DOTA 2 tournament. The prize pool is something like 8 million dollars. It is insane, and has a massive fan base. I am not sure what you are trying to do, but maybe you could partner up with the gaming companies; give them some equity in your gig in exchange for promotion and...

    How do grades affect your life

    HOT! 
    I think if it is college, you might as well try to make good grades. I didn't even try hard and I got a 3.64 or something like that. That is good enough to look good in case I need to get a job, but I didn't have to kill myself to get it. I think if you are going to college, and aren't planning...

    More Musings about Life

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Man, that sounds awesome. I love when they hit like that. My little bro is in Colorado right now working a summer camp, and when he has had time he sneaks in some trout fishing in some big mountain lake near him. He has been catching them too. Nothing better than fresh fish! Yum!

    My Fiction Attempt

    PUBLISHING 
    This is a great idea, I love a good partnership. Also, you need to really think how you are going to draw people into your setup. Most people at fairs just walk down the main drag and glance into booths/tents; they don't really walk in unless they see something pretty enticing. The business...

    My Fiction Attempt

    PUBLISHING 
    I would say try to nail the appearance of a famous author. The more you can give yourself the look of a pro, the more credibility you will get. Don't just use a grey card table; unless you wrap it in some nice looking fabric. Maybe dress nicely and add one eccentric detail that will make people...

    Eskil, should you have made more $70 spots? They are already all gone and you are only at 5k of your 35k goal. I really don't know a ton about kickstarter, is that what usually happens?

    Confused Slow-to-Fast-to-Middle-Laner. What Do You Think?

    It seems like you were pretty good at affiliate marketing, why don't you focus on a spin of this? A common strategy around the forum is to talk to a local company that makes something; say fancy woven rugs or handcrafted oils, and then evaluate their online presence. Most companies aren't very...

    The first thing you need to do is re-analyze your results. 65% of people said they would have ZERO INTEREST in your product, so you need to exclude them from the results. Maybe those were the people that said they would only pay $4.99, but the 15% of actually interested people would pay $20...
