    Made a website as a joke. Can it be something more?

    HOT! MARKETING 
    It's not going to be a million dollar idea but it's something to play around with to gain some experience. Just don't let it get in the way of your next idea that complies with CENTS. Work on linking your fulfillment directly to a seller on Amazon and automate it. Then you can rework the copy...

    Looking For Turn Key Real Estate Investing

    INVESTING 
    Send me a check and I'll find something for you. What kind of return were you looking for? And how big is your wallet? Only 1/2 kidding. Why not just invest in a REIT at that point?

    From Idea to Live defore December

    IDEA 
    Raw HTML? Or are you using PHP, etc? I respect your desire to do this yourself from the ground up but the concept is to test your idea as fast as you can an get sales if possible. Just want to make sure that you're not getting too caught up in the minutia and losing site of the bigger picture.

    Founder of startup wants HUGE salary from the beginning

    HOT! PEOPLE 
    My CEO salary guidelines: $50k or 2x lowest salary in the company. Must have 6 months CEO salary in the bank on top of 6 months burn before you get paid. Hold down your day job as long as possible. That should be funding you, not the startup. CEO is the LAST guy to get paid.

    2016, Fastlane Summit (Preliminary)

    MEETUPS 
    I'm in if you'll have me. Just missed it last year since I was new to the forum. Had a few small attempts that went nowhere so far and looking for the next opportunity. Recently went to TrendHunter's first ever Future Festival and got some renewed energy. Need to have a better network of...

    Let's Build a Spec House!

    EXECUTION 
    I'm definitely interested in hearing more about this. I have recently been thinking of some ways to merge two growing housing trends while reducing the build costs. As a current buy and hold real estate investor I'm always looking for ways to scale that business. Local prices put self managed...

    Have an idea for a Dating website

    IDEA 
    It's a VERY crowded space and hard to get momentum for membership. Dating sites are always a bit of a catch 22 situation, you need to get people on the site to make matches, but people won't join and stay on a site if they don't see many/interesting people on the site. Also it's very easy for...

    Feedback on Cover Design? (Adult Coloring Book)

    PUBLISHING 
    If it were me...and I'm not your target audience mind you... I'd make the art the background for the cover typography rather than a center piece. I'd take the angle of making the full cover a photo-realistic example of the art. I mean, something 'really' impressive that makes you question if...

    Travelling the World at 21 - Making the right decisions...

    MINDSET 
    There's nothing wrong with being an introvert so don't be ashamed of it. Still, as you've noted, it's worth being able to be more extroverted in certain settings. I'm an introvert myself and here's what's worked for me. I started my own consulting business and it helped me to get out of my...

    Rehabber, Landlord, Marketing, Wholesaling

    MARKETING 
    We've been doing a few buy and holds in recent years and are happy with our returns on those deals. In Canada we don't do wholesaling, so it's either flipping or rentals really. We haven't networked enough (or the right network I suppose) to identify investor partners to help grow our portfolio...

    ***Amusement park attraction…. help me rename…??

    HOT! 
    If you can't use the Daredevil theme, you may want to reconsider the whole 'devil' angle. While I personally am not a religious man, others you come across in the industry might be...or feel that they would deter religious riders with that naming angle. This may limit some of out potential...

    Need Motivation? "Go F*cking Do It"

    Not sure if anyone has seen this or not but...gofuckingdoit.com I have no affiliation with the site. Just thought it may help other make commitments. It wouldn't surprise me if someone here made the site honestly.

    How can my wife make money online?

    Agree with Bila. You lost me at "convinced". Read the book. Pass it along. Not everyone is cut out for being an entrepreneur. Don't force it on people.

    My 1st facebook AD campaign.

    MARKETING 
    Can you make it free? Can the roofer either pay for the deductible from his profits or jack up his rate to the insurance company so that he can reimburse the home owner the cost of the deductible to make it free? Look into doing something like the auto glass guys do where they cover the...

    My 1st facebook AD campaign.

    MARKETING 
    Use all the tools they give you. Don't run a one image ad...use all the images you can load in there. ie. Start with a Tornado pic. Show a pic of an inspection or a close up of damage that may not be visible from the ground. Do an ad like a testimonial with a happy customer exhaulting the $0...

    Should i delegate this?

    Ultimately since we don't know the details of your business, it's a personal decision that we can't make for you. From what you'd told us, I see three questions that you need to answer for yourself. This is really the principle question that you need to analyze. 'If' you are the bottle neck...
