    Accountability Partners For Lawn Care Service Business Owners Scaling Their Business

    IDEA 
    Yeah like one on one meetings with each landscaper. Yeah the $500 and up fee is to get only premium customers who are serious about growing and scaling their business. I know a couple of accountability websites, like Focus mate, StickK and commitaction. The last one probably does it pretty...

    Accountability Partners For Lawn Care Service Business Owners Scaling Their Business

    IDEA 
    I've heard networking is important, so here goes my idea... Basically, make more money in half the time, in half the effort in your country or state as a lawn care/landscaping business. You'll be able to meet other lawn care business owners in the process of scaling their business and check in...

    IDEA 
    Here are some good threads I found on validating your ideas (depending on your needs)... https://www.thefastlaneforum.com/community/threads/how-to-run-my-mvp-properly.102715/#post-985228 https://www.thefastlaneforum.com/community/threads/creating-the-mvp-with-minimal-coding-experience.101193/...

    Product Idea, what do you think ?

    IDEA 
    This. Exactly my problem lol, so you know it's a real validated problem. Perhaps you could ask a few people with this particular problem (maybe 5 people) if they'd pay an extra $5 for you to extend their earplugs to allow for side sleeping, and get some pre monetary validation for that. Maybe...

    Product Idea, what do you think ?

    IDEA 
    Possibly? But part of the device inches out like a needle, so I reckon that could be awkward.

    Product Idea, what do you think ?

    IDEA 
    Got my first earplugs today and I'll give you solid feedback you could possibly use in your value skew. The one I got was the loop earplugs (quiet) which are recommended a lot. It works quite well at keeping sound away (Doesn't do so completely, but this might be ok for safety reasons). What I...

    If there is one thing you should do to skyrocket your business...

    CHAT 
    What do you forego if you don't achieve these goals? 3 years from now, 5 years from now and even 10 years? Maybe there's no pain. But if you think you'd regret not achieving any of these in that time period, I'd reckon that's the fire under your belly you can use to motivate yourself to achieve...

    If there is one thing you should do to skyrocket your business...

    CHAT 
    In that case, what's your why? What does your dream life look like? Can you get really clear on it? Maybe it's loads of money after a multi million dollar exit. Maybe it's making boatloads of money while you're sipping a drink on the beach. Maybe it's as simple as having a vineyard. What...

    If there is one thing you should do to skyrocket your business...

    CHAT 
    I've found making progress on achieving a long term goal is about putting one foot forward in the right direction. How I'd do it is to first write down a SMART goal. This goal must be specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time bound. Then, I write down the key milestones (events)...

    Any ideas what to do with the ideas?

    IDEA 
    Extending what Russ said. Go to someone who is basically 100% your target market for the idea (online or offline). Ask them to pay for the idea now and in exchange they'll be the first to use it when it's available. Repeat 5-10 times. Validation achieved. At least, that's how it would work in...

    Any ideas what to do with the ideas?

    IDEA 
    I'm actually struggling with the same thing myself. If you're working on one thing already, you have to avoid the so called "shiny object syndrome" where you jump about from idea to idea on a whim because it seems better or cooler, I can't see that working long term for success. One method...

    Starting to Think Differently

    INTRO 
    Don't do that. Do this. And just go help people with these problems. As Andy would say, help the person closest to you. Find out what they need help with, what they'll hop on a call for, and what problems they'll pay for.

    Starting to Think Differently

    INTRO 
    Welcome to the crew! Remember, focus on the people. Focus on helping them first, rather than you. If you aren't motivated to help them, you won't be motivated to create something relatively valuable, which will probably lead you to not developing the best thing for them and they therefore will...

    You know what Andy? I wasn't reading between the lines, and I probably was action faking. Gonna ask someone from my target market to hop on a call now to help them.

    I probably could ahaha! True! And solid advice! This is exactly what I did actually, and in doing so found most of these important activities that people do from seeing the problems in myself and out there in forums and discords. Like that "I generate business idea as a high skill expert to...
