    Unsure/ negative thoughts

    MINDSET 
    Sure, but the problem is his mindset right now is thinking about opportunity cost. $1,300 a month (I don't know his exact time spent, thats important as well) would translate to $15,600 a year. That's okay, but not compared to a $60k 9-5er that pays $5,000 a month. With a mindset like that, if...

    Unsure/ negative thoughts

    MINDSET 
    Turn your unsureness and negative thoughts into motivation. Turn them into absolutes. "Am I doing enough? Am I using all of my freetime on my business" into "I'm not doing as much as I can. I have freetime I use not on my business. I'm not where I want to be and I am going to change to achieve...

    Lex DeVille's: How to Make $1,000 a Week with no Degree, no Feedback, & no Portfolio.

    GOLD! SIDE HUSTLE 
    I had an odesk account as a programmer, but never took any jobs because I didn't feel like I was qualified. Working on my landing page, I feel like I have a natural talent at copywriting, and after reading some books, articles, etc. I updated my odesk profile to be a copywriter rather than a...

    Just read the book. Use that time spent on MLM to create value yourself. Find a need, create a solution.

    what are the best tips for a new entrepreneur building a web startup

    Read some copywriting articles or books. Every word on your site and in your app should have a purpose. Also always present yourself in a favorable manner, so you use correct grammar even in forum posts ;)

    Feedback on Homework Site

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I think you're in a very crowded market and need to make sure you differentiate as "immediate answers to your toughest questions" rather than just another "ask me" or tutor site. Maybe offer a free trial - 5 questions immediately answered free and also have a free mode. Ask questions but...

    Retirement: Slow-Lane Methods, or Fastlane Big Time?

    If you want to, I'd say go ahead. Of course, if your business doesn't need many startup funds, you will have extra $ anyway. Take a look at this thread, I feel like you may be struggling with the same kind of ordeal I was ...

    Retirement: Slow-Lane Methods, or Fastlane Big Time?

    Use those "retirement savings" as "startup funds".

    Catch customers before they leave

    Sometimes I wish we could give negative rep/dislikes. Im not confused, i know exactly what he was talking about. Its still spammy and ridiculous. Annoying someone to stay is the worst possible thing. Think Apple/Microsoft/Google are annoying people to stay? Nope, theyre providing value and...

    Catch customers before they leave

    20% of? And how many sales etc from someone coming back? If a site does this to me, i immediately close and write it off as spam and it never gets another thought.

    I have an invention. How do I proceed.

    Kickstarters are hard. You have to have an amazing idea, great copy, a great video and a shit ton of luck. Id do a landing page to generate atleast some interest, then do a kickstarter. They're very time consuming.

    What do yall think about this template for a landing page: http://scripteden.com/previews/expose/# I'd move the Contact Us to the top instead of that image and make it into an action form like "Preregister Now" or something, and then in the pricing i'd add a *subject to change and then make the...

    Idea for a website? Want to learn how code? look here first!

    IDEA 
    Nice post. I also think if you have some programming experience but not necessarily enough to tackle your full problem but need a custom solution, look at frameworks! Bootstrap by Twitter for example. You get the ease and convenience of a template and all the "hard stuff" already done and then...

    EXECUTION 
    Alright, read the book, it was awesome. Learned a ton, definitely a must read for all on this forum. After reading it, I was thinking this is the best way to go: A page to drum up some interest. List future features. Ask for registrations in exchange for a free year of the service once it goes...

    Any other recommendations from doing a similar product?i thank you guys for all the advice. What all should my MVP entail? Maybe a site with all the features that is just a rough design or something? I dont think there are many features it can go without and be good

    Sports Coaching App

    EXECUTION 
    Alright, question for those of you who may see it. Based on the features and whatnot in the thread and my desire to go web first, I'm considering either a custom site (built by myself) or a template. I can do web design and dev, but my designs aren't that great, and I'd need to put in some hours...

    Sports Coaching App

    EXECUTION 
    Im going to "pivot" so to speak. Rather than release a mobile app first, im going to start the website first with a mobile website. I decided id fail without a web version, so I think this is best. It will be the same thing, same features, just no native app yet. And hopefully it will act as my...
