    Let the anger go

    MINDSET RANT 
    I must have gone through 15 wine bottles and some vodka to get past my anger at sh#theads in business. It wasn't because I was drowning anything, it was because, holding the truth in my mind for several months to heal the true problem left me with no fun at all in my day. So I'd give myself a...

    Should you go and get shit yourself or get a team?

    PEOPLE 
    Go get it yourself, only when you are a good biz guy, get a team. Or you can just muddle everything up and get high on an egotistical search for drama and supremacy amongst trivial heirarchal groups. I'd go the first route though, the other path is for sh#theads

    Don't let it defeat you

    MINDSET RANT 
    Disillusionment. I hate that feeling. I think its part of why I was bitter at business, because I knew nothing would happen. So since nothing happens, I was annoyed that the paths we are given to get there are full of blame and sh#t. People act as if somehow if we blame ourselves enough we'll...

    Don't let it defeat you

    MINDSET RANT 
    I think I figured out why the hell I am here on this forum. At first I thought it was cuz there are not really any better forums. But thats DEFINATELY not it. I think the real reason I'm here is because I had to overcome my feeling of defeat on my own. Sometimes, you are loneliest around...

    Are you using the internet, or is it using you?

    RANT 
    Show you can outcompete the rest of the field, show you have the "right stuff", have a concise/understandable/executeable idea, be good to work with and succeed with. I think those are the biggest ideas for pitching for me, cuz people with real business smarts don't really go on what you tell...

    Agendas and EXTREME failure

    MINDSET FAILURE 
    Extreme failure is when you go to an extreme in the pursuit of success, but remain in that extreme without success. Agendas are typically what hold you in that extreme without chance to relent or alternate strategy. You need to be able to extricate yourself from the extreme and challenge...

    PROGRESS THREAD: How I quit my Job to pursue a Self-publishing Fastlane Journey

    PUBLISHING 
    Thanks for that Cyber! Have you looked at your list size, versus how many convert to sales? Are they all mostly interested buyers, or are you only converting a percentage between 2-15% And if so, I'm wondering how you want to grow your list, or maybe you want to grow converstions? Or maybe you...

    Forced to temporarily stay in the slowlane ?

    SLOWLANE 
    Well... No business ime is as easy as "go to manufacturer -> encorporate -> make money", that is what I'm really saying. There a whole other bunch of steps you are omitting, and it is the fact you are omitting those steps that you are stressed and blaming school etc. If you really believe you...

    I'm stealing someone else's idea... Am i bad?

    IDEA 
    Sounds tough at first but think twice, because it isn't just about ethics. Its like I said, about substance. Substance is the only real way you can "garuntee" success of a business, because its not the business that makes money its you, your skills. If you can be genuine and make it, you'll...

    I'm stealing someone else's idea... Am i bad?

    IDEA 
    Its physical, so it sounds fine to me. Don't penalise yourself, just get up and running FAST and WELL. I'd pull in a few people, and speed progress up to max. Thats why I said that some are egotistical and can't see win win. But lets look at a book, someone plaguerises Game of Thrones and...

    Why not just get samples, and not launch the business? I'm doing a physical product in the stationary supplies area, and am creating the product, going through different manufacturers and testing samples and mixing and matching set ups. None of that requires me to be encorporated. I just do it...

    I'm stealing someone else's idea... Am i bad?

    IDEA 
    Info product, software or physical? Info product (not so smart to knock them off) Software (sure, get some ideas, make your own, its going to be tough anyways) Physical (its about who gets in faster really and does the best job) If its an info product ripoff I think thats weird and creepy...

    Foundations for business

    Finances - You need to not bleed money each month, or have "waste" purchases personally - You need to understand that businesses usually spend 40% or so on marketting and traffic - You need to see money as dynamic, and jump in at a level of intensity, but only after MINIMISING risks and...

    Getting out of the ditch

    MINDSET 
    One day at a time. TBH, I first came into biz thinking "maybe I can do this with some energy to spare". Then years later going through attrition, I realised, you are only as good as you are at persevering and none of that fancy sh#t mattered a darn bit. The hard times are the only...

    When the magic fades, what's next.

    I'm totally in a spot like this... I think the drop in momentum its a bit of an illusion though. I think you are supposed to process customer concerns and desires, and keep your ear to the ground and keep positive. I also try to keep calm and not get too edgey, because I try to minimise action...

    How are you going to get customers?

    I find that you need to know a lot about people to really get great ideas for how to communicate to them. These days I just sit and think about people and what they want. Most of the time they don't even know, they only know what they don't want, and anything they say they want is probably a...

    QUESTION: What is the process for finding a MARKET (not a 'PRODUCT THAT WILL SELL')

    Cool post, I'm surprised there aren't more cool a## questions like this I can only tell you what I know, but basically START BIG, and fill out as many niches in that market as broadly as you can and narrow in on a sweet spot. For example, you pick a market direction Boats Fishing, Gear...
