    Having trouble making small talk; I don't care about other people

    NOTABLE! PEOPLE

    Lead Generation or Middleman? My Process

    EXECUTION 
    Thank you for your response. If I went the lead generation route I'd probably take the pay-per-sale route to make things more workable for the independent contractors. Right now I've been doing things the first way, but it's making things tough to scale.

    First Failure... New Ideas

    IDEA

    First Failure... New Ideas

    IDEA 
    I've had this idea for quite some time now (I just decided to offer more services and my target market is different). The only thing that would be similar to Jack's idea would be using the power of relationships for referrals. I can post a link to my original thread if you'd like. I'm...
