    Going into business with 2 partners, need help structuring

    Very good to know. Thanks a ton. I scheduled a meeting with my local SBDC to discuss this further, then once we all agree on something, we'll get it legalized. I live by this. Absolutely. This is exactly what I was thinking. Plus, it's a detriment to us since you have to pay it back with...

    Going into business with 2 partners, need help structuring

    Z, good to hear from you. You gave me your card at the Summit. Hope everything is going well on your end. This is an odd business model. Can I shoot you a PM to talk about it? Doing this as we speak with real dollar values. (If this many customers, than this, average "sale price") Good...

    Going into business with 2 partners, need help structuring

    I know I know, terrible idea right. The two partners are two of my friends from high school. The thing is, this wasn't my idea to begin with, this was my friends idea. He is business minded but hasn't had any successes in the past (with business). I see huge potential in this idea. The...

    Do you have a tattoo?

    HOT! 
    All of the ones I've seen are dirt cheap from China, maybe someone could make a custom one like screen printing? Sell em for $20, $30? My other thought would be Henna, which is diiiirt cheap. Although you godda find an artist. I'd probably just post on Facebook and buy someone a case of beer...

    Do you have a tattoo?

    HOT! 
    I have over 40 tattoos, I stopped counting. No hand or neck tats, but every other part of my body has at least something (including my a$$ cheeks :rofl:) I don't regret any of them and plan to continue until most of my body is covered. People that know me wouldn't expect anything less. I...

    Just When I Thought I Had it all Figured Out....

    RANT 
    @ZF Lee We're rooting for you man. My only advice is to not dwell on situations and not think too hard. Especially significant other situations. Smart people learn from other people's mistakes, so trust me, your time is more valuable than that. Keep yourself super busy and don't look back.

    RANT 
    It seems to me like your maturity levels aren't where they need to be with this situation. Keep yourself busy with other business related things, and you won't have time to dwell on petty shit. If your girl posts something on her IG, you should be proud to tell people that you're with her...

    Hey Fastlaners! Last year, @nitroheadz28 and I moved from Idaho and New York respectively to San Diego in order to pursue business full time. We rented a 3 bedroom house and found a random Craigslist roommate in order to save some money and also be able to have a garage for inventory. I do...

    My current strategy is to run View Content conversion type, then once that has some data, duplicate, and switch the duplicate to ATC, then IC, then finally Purchase. Whenever I've run straight Purchase conversion ads, they do poorly. Can you shine some light on this? Does this mean my...
