    Is CENTS Destructive to Action?

    GOLD! MINDSET 
    Very interesting, I was just thinking about this over the past weekend and posted a little about it in my current progress thread. I have a business that violates Entry, but I know the industry really well. Right when this problem occurs to me 1) this thread appears, and 2) I get to Chapter 21...

    I like that. Talk to a couple, take them out for coffee (or whatever), and bounce your idea off of them. What you really want to find out is if your idea solves a real problem for them. Don't assume it does, test that assumption and force them to poke holes in the idea.

    Before you write another line of code, is there a way you could talk to a few of the future users of your site?

    SOCIAL MEDIA INTRO 
    Welcome to the forum! I do think there's a lot of value in long tail products (I'm in the middle of reading The Long Tail by Chris Anderson) but a lot of the long tail equation involves having 1-3 really strong products that bring in first-time-buyers. Then the long tail products bring in the...

    Creating Great Content? Benjamin Franklin Method

    Benjamin Franklin did this for YEARS and was writing 5-8 articles for The Pennsylvania Gazette and other publications daily. It'll be a lot of hard work for a long time to improve your writing. But Franklin's method sounds like a great one. Just trying to keep your expectations in check. You...

    Re-intro: Laid off. Side "business" is a mess. Scaling back up from 0

    INTRO 
    Thanks so much! Best of luck to you as well, I just started following. I'll end this thread here since it wasn't supposed to be a progress thread. I thought it'd intro, make 10 sales in a week or so and be an insider right off the bat. So far it's been 6 weeks and I have 9 sales, that's it...

    INTRO 
    F*ck it. I pitched to 4 stores via email yesterday (called to find the stock buyer's name ahead of time) Got one response toward the end of the day, and set up an appointment to meet the buyer. I went to the meeting with the buyer this morning. He said one product was "spectacular" and the...

    Hola Ronda-Grace! I don't know if you'll find much of a mentor here on the boards until you hustle on your own and action-taking. This thread should be a huge help to you if mentorship is your goal: GOLD! - How To Find A Mentor and More... Hope it helps!

    Pleased to meet ya

    INTRO 
    Nice! I'm going through this as well, so I don't have much good advice to offer (yet!) One thing that did help me though, was to find out exactly how much money I need to survive on my income from my business, and then work backwards. Cut everything unnecessary, get a grasp of what your...

    INTRO 
    No sales last week, so goal for this week is 4 units sold. I'm $75 into IG ads, and no website sales from that yet. I'm about ready to say "F*ck it" and get an Insiders Pass just so I can share more confidential info and find out what the fudge I'm doing wrong. To reach the 4 sales this week...

    New venture Website, Looking for feedback

    HOT! 
    @Jaden Jones I'm late to the party, but hopefully this helps. I used to get on live calls with clients and analyze their sites with them, so I've probably done this hundreds of times. I shot you a video (11min): Screen Recording 2019-03-14 at 09.44 AM.mov Going back and looking at the thread...

    Things aren't going so hot. If I want to make my March goal (see above post), I need to sell 2 units this week. I would have liked to sell one by Tuesday and one by EOD tomorrow. So far, none. I made 2 sales on Thursday of last week, so maybe I can pull that off again. The last sales came...

    Billionaire Ray Dalio: Meditation is ‘the single most important reason' for my success

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    I started Unscripted this morning (I know, I know :wideyed:) and in the early chapters, MJ says: That made me immediately think of this thread. It really feels like people are afraid to be left alone with their thoughts. I know I fall into that trap. Action for me: 5 mins meditation every...

    Sorry guys, my bad. I started running my first Instagram ads yesterday afternoon so this is probably my fault. (PS No sales via the ads yet, but lots of new followers)

    My Rating: 4 stars out of 5 stars :star::star::star::star: :xx: Format: Library Book My thoughts/review: I'm hard to get a 5 out of, but I thought this was a great book. It has actionable takeaways (not just a fluffy pep-talk), and the writing itself was great. I found myself rereading some...
