    Let's talk about sales

    HOT! MARKETING 
    Right now, I have an idea I thought of last week, I am throwing together a one page sales website today and probably get one of my girls to make a few 100 phone calls tomorrow or Wednesday to see if the idea holds any water. Most of my hair brained ideas don't. But I will know in less than a...

    Exhausted from failure

    HOT! 
    I was just in Houston last week, and the house we went to had a big no soliciting sign on the door, like big, hand written.. I said is it that bad and she said yes, twice a week someone is coming by to try to switch my electric.. If that is true or not that is what people are perceiving as...

    Home Inventory Web App - Ready to make it big

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    You have a lot to learn. For example, If you truly went after insurance agencies with a deal like this, you have a lot to learn about business. But you got gumption, a nice site so keep at it. Actually, the kind of people you are looking for will think twice, I don't think you will pull...

    I was just thinking along the same line, But in all my hard thinking I keep coming back to two big problems with this deal.. 1. Would you really invite someone into your house to take pics of the major items you want to make sure you have pics of incase they get ripped off, destroyed in a fire...

    The REAL Fastlane - It's not what you think

    EXECUTION 
    The reason they fail over and over and over again, is because truly they were not great business people to begin with. I had many Ex-employees that ran out and did the same exact thing I was doing. Exactly, rode it for years and years. Not because they are great businessmen, they were just...

    The REAL Fastlane - It's not what you think

    EXECUTION 
    Having been there, I can tell you that it is partly true. The second time you do not fall for the B.S. you did the first time. The first time you don't know anybody, the second time well let's just say if I needed 1/2 a million tomorrow to make a big buy, I know people. Having said that. Doing...

    Would people pay for this?

    Can't someone just watch old episodes of Fear factor if they want to see gross things like this. Lot of free publicity you could get, just not sure a lot of people would pay, but then anything would be free money.
