    Merry Christmas and thanks for sharing. My 1 min impression and initial thoughts (which I think are most important for getting users/revenue) * I like the landing page layout and your styling, I didn't read the copy so can't comment on that * It looks complicated to use, too many options, too...

    How to determine customer acquisition cost before launching the product?

    IDEA 
    Agreed that 20% is way too high an assumed conversion rate for PPC (regardless of channel). Personally I would use super conservative rates when evaluating a new product since there are many unknowns. If you need a 20% conversion rate to make the numbers work I'd assume they don't work. If you...

    So WTF are NFTs all about? Buying JPGs? Why can't you just right-click save? Is this a giant ponzi? Far from it...

    What's the reason for choosing NFT opposed to a traditional membership service? Would you want the memberships to be auctioned?

    Whats one thing you think or believe that most people on this forum would disagree with?

    I'm not sure if it's most of the forum, but based on # of threads on the topic I'll throw this out there... The US dollar is NOT collapsing and will NOT collapse in the next 10 years. General inflation (outside of assets - stocks/RE, etc) will go back to pre-pandemic levels within 2 years...

    I'm currently building a SAAS which will soon be entering beta. I have an ecommerce store and I wrote software to scratch my own itch. I thought there would be a need for others so looked to forums for other stores with same problem. Finding a recent post I reached out about the idea and asked...

    Do you have any examples of successful businesses which started with the #3 approach? I like the idea of no code tooling for idea validation but assumed, perhaps incorrectly, it’s too limited for all but trivial tasks. Would be interesting to see some creative examples.

    This idea is CENTS validated!!! Serious entrepreneurs, any comments?

    IDEA 
    Need definitely exists. PayPal is decent user experience but the fees are egregious. would much prefer a service where the fees are flat instead of relative to payment. Any large payments and I have to get snail mail or wire transfer. I think regulation is big reason for lack of competition in...

    Hiring web developers with no coding skills

    Honestly this will be pretty risky for you. I would recommend you pay a company opposed to trying to vet a developer if you aren’t technical. Some pointers: Get clear on your MVP requirements and strip down to bare essentials Make sure you have UX mock-ups before coding begins Request...

    You can track everything but the open rates may look inflated since open rates are tracked by the images loading which used to happen on open and is now being prefetched when it hits the inbox. Shouldn’t affect clicks or purchase data. Klaviyo sent an email describing the change.

    Why iOS 14.5 Didn't Kill Facebook Ads Tracking

    MARKETING SOCIAL MEDIA 
    Forums and blog posts keep saying that iOS 14.5 killed facebook ad tracking, I'm posting this to explain why that's not the case. To investigate I went to the source (the apple dev docs) and deciphered them so you don't have to. Almost everyone is tapping 'Ask App not to Track' so why isn't...

    The gtag integration just means that certain tag events (like purchase) can be automatically sent to facebook via the conversion API. It's an alternative means of configuring the conversion API and doesn't provide more information to facebook than a standard conversion API configuration would...

    Creating the MVP with minimal Coding Experience

    Don't overthink things. If you have connections and industry experience this is your edge. Look at this as a two step process for now. Step 1: Create something super simple (like a powerpoint/google slides) describing what the software would do and roughly how it would work. No need to learn...

    HOT! MARKETING 
    I think you are overthinking things. Your budget is too low for overlapping to be a practical problem, you probably won't reach 1% of either audience. Besides these are temporary tests, once you find winning audiences you will combine them. Use the same audience when testing creatives. You want...

    LLC or S Corp?

    If you're actually making money then get an accountant one that deals with businesses of your size. Decisions will be specific to your situation (including if/when you plan on selling the assets).

    When you say conversion campaign was the goal Purchase or something else? Did you mean 0,19 CPC? What was the CPM? Are you saying the CPM was 0.67 EU? that seems absurdly low for a purchase or traffic campaign. I don't think you'd need to spend 50 EU for the engagement test. Just enough to...

    Well said. I previously worked for a large fortune 500 tech company who performed a number of AI focused acquisitions. Exactly as you said statistics at scale with pattern recognition. Still impressive and brings a number of advantages to solving problems but yea it was marketed as "completely...

    I've seen this published in a few places and feel like it's being significantly overhyped (like most of AI tbh). My take on this as someone with 12 years software engineering experience and someone who has worked on complex software projects (and also has a computer science degree and spent my...
