    Lead Gen Page for Window Cleaning

    MARKETING 
    *viewed only on mobile* First thoughts; - Why is the domain so different from the company name, am I in the right place? - I don't need help cleaning my windows, I need someone to do it for me - I can't even see the picture of this guy. Oh he is "franchise owner" - this guy probably won't be...

    HOT! PEOPLE 
    He is a hugely sought after public speaker. Building the Gary V brand also in turn built his social media agency which turns over in excess of like $200m I think building the Gary V brand was VERY good business.

    Spicymemer45's Adventures in Capitalism (For life)

    EXECUTION 
    Find a street with a few houses that could do with a bit of TLC. Pick one and make the front garden look amazing (do it for free or crazy cheap). Go to the neighbors and point "look how amazing Bobs lawn looks" They will hire you both because you did a good job, but also because they don't want...

    Social Media Marketing

    MARKETING SOCIAL MEDIA 
    Does it matter? It sounds like he is getting good engagement. You will sell a lot more to 1,000 very engaged followers than 10,000 irrelevant ones. If your aim is to sell (rather than social proof for example) you need to stop worrying about the headline figures

    Why you should test out many ideas at once.

    IDEA 
    This is the equivalent of throwing all the shit at the wall and seeing if any sticks. Rather than carefully analysing the shit, and choosing the stickiest to throw. Both work (providing you are good at analysing shit). But one creates a lot more mess.

    When did you realize the system is rigged?

    NOTABLE! 
    I realised pretty early. At school in fact. I was always a straight A student so everyone, teachers, parents, friends were expecting me to follow the good grades > good degree > good job route. But my brain just wasn't wired that way. I can't pin point who the influencer was (nobody in my...

    As many as required at the time. If a lot needs doing, I'll work every hour I can. If the business is cruising, time to enjoy life. Named days...

    I Don't Know What I'm Doing. But I'm Doing.

    EXECUTION 
    Wow, a month since I posted this already. Jeeeez. Have been a little disappointed with my developer's progress over the last month. Started really putting the pressure on him as he seemed to be stalling, which was frankly terrifying me. Just got off a Skype call with him this second and he has...

    50 yr old+ Entrepreneurs- Help Wanted

    HOT! 
    This forum has an seeming obsession with age. And I can't fathom it. Your age means jack shit. The market doesn't care. Your mentors don't care. The only person who cares how old you are, is you. How many times you have travelled round the sun is a useless metric

    10/10 Biz Idea, in 'Soon to Be Gone' (Possibly) Industry? What to Do?

    IDEA 
    I wouldn't worry. Start today, make a profit, make more profit, self driving car come in, find an exit and be on your way. They don't? Make more profit.

    Making Your Bed

    MINDSET RANT 
    I kinda see OPs point. Kinda. Like it would be cool to leap out of bed, forget making it, and grab the phone, still undressed, and make a few hundred cold calls. But where is the self respect? Make your damn bed.

    Starting A Social Media Business & Overcoming Self -Doubt

    MARKETING SOCIAL MEDIA 
    The social media marketing market is a minefield (from the buyers perspective). I have looked at length for someone to help me with the social media for my startup without any luck. Price dependant I would be happy to give you some kind of shot on a trial basis (I'll be honest, I'm not sure if...

    Fear and Action-Faking in Entrepreneurship-- a 19 year old's guide to askholing.

    NOTABLE! 
    Chuckled at the change of avatar pic. You don't count the sit-ups huh? You only start counting when it starts hurting? I'd stop counting 5 hours of work resulting in $8 of gain. Although on second thought, that probably really hurts.

    Best tool/software for creating animations?

    MARKETING 
    Fiverr is littered with them. I chose a guy with amazing feedback, higher end of the pricing range and awesome example videos. He produced a pile of crap for me. Maybe I was unlucky, but check out UpWork, the caliber of professional is generally much higher.

    Shall I buy my freedom or delay my dream?

    MINDSET 
    I was tied into a very similar contract at a job I hated. They were paying me through some very expensive training and if I left I had to pay them back for all of the training expenses.They could see I hated it, and as a result was a pretty shitty worker (not through lack of trying, the quality...
