    Roast My Idea - Lead Generation Business

    HOT! IDEA 
    Dont apologize - its your business, not ours, and I'm choosing to help :) Reading books and websites is all very well, but that in itself can become a dreamers lifestyle. Trust me, I did it. Look, you're over-complicating this. You just asked me 5 questions, and they're all basically...

    Paid email marketing providers necessary?

    MARKETING 
    I recommend MailCheat(Chimp) too. Easy to use, good value, and does the job exactly as required (in my case anyway). Agree with the comments above. Have a solid monetization plan NOW, not some vague idea about how you might launch an ebook later.

    Roast My Idea - Lead Generation Business

    HOT! IDEA 
    You're in a competitive market, and your USP's are nowhere near punchy enough. If you want to stand out, you need to find a reason why people should give a shit about what you have to offer. Come on? What makes you GREAT? Why the hell should I choose YOU? Give me an awesome offer that grabs my...

    Roast My Idea - Lead Generation Business

    HOT! IDEA 
    I charge £30-50 per lead in my niche. A much better return is possible with a higher order value.

    Roast My Idea - Lead Generation Business

    HOT! IDEA 
    I do agree with your comments - action is key, and should be admired. However, why not make your first venture a high profit venture? Honestly I don't believe the process is any easier or harder either way, so why not? Contractual basis with a minimum number of leads per month - thats exactly...

    Time to change gears

    INTRO 
    Welcome. No-one is going to 'make' you feel significant. You've got to find that confidence on your own. Equally, no-one has the right to make you feel insignificant either. With respect, grow some balls and map out the life you REALLY want. Take actions and steps towards that life, and don't...

    How do I start an affiliate marketing program?

    MARKETING 
    THIS..... is the comment you should take most note of. However in response, 5% isn't enough to get affiliates interested. You're operating in an extremely competitive market, and other companies selling the same products already offer a far better deal for affiliates. For 5%, most affiliates...

    Can you do SEO or PPC? Let's partner up!

    I admire your enthusiasm. You're already ahead of 99% of other 19 year olds, and I can assure you that you have a bright future ahead of you. HOWEVER - your business appears to fail the commandment of time. You will struggle to find an SEO person here, because the advice that almost all members...

    Roast My Idea - Lead Generation Business

    HOT! IDEA 
    This looks like a good idea in principle, but I think your revenue model will be difficult to live with due to the low numbers involved. Low transaction value means a low cost per lead. Low cost per lead means less profit for you. If computers are your poison, is there an area of the market you...

    "How do I find my niche?"

    Honestly I do not believe there is any set process for finding a niche. I think it varies from person to person. My path requires that I come up with niche ideas all the time. Sometimes I sit myself in a darkened room and think like crazy, and come up with some really good ideas. Then I whittle...

    If you're serious about your business and committed to its success, you need a business bank account. It's a basic fundamental, not an optional luxury.

    Made a website as a joke. Can it be something more?

    HOT! MARKETING 
    I do like this idea, but for me the big issue is marketing because no-one will deliberately seek this out this service. SEO will be impractical because people will not search for this service specifically, so keyword targeting will be tough. For advertising you need a target market, and you...

    Buying inventory for eCommerce

    The product was a specific-fitment item for cars. There were hundreds of applications, so it was not viable to order containers of stock when everything could be custom manufactured one item at a time by our supplier. I wouldn't want to be in their shoes, but they were happy and of course, so was I.

    HOT! MARKETING 
    I think this is a question of perspective. This may appear cruel, but it could actually prevent people from suffering years of ridicule and reduced life chances. Tough love and all that jazz

    Buying inventory for eCommerce

    You started your post with the word "no", then later appear to agree with my views. So do you agree, or disagree?? Picking up on one of your points, I have only ever known ONE instance of a retailer dropshipping for other retailers, where it actually made sense to buy from them. In this...

    Buying inventory for eCommerce

    Sorry, one more comment on this. Manufacturers/distributors/wholesalers that actively advertise dropshipping on their websites are often highly efficient at the process, but it rarely makes sense to buy from them. Everyone else will be doing so, therefore failing the commandment of entry and...
