    Hey MJ & co. Why Is "Everyone Doing It" On NFTs? Is It The Real Deal?

    HOT! INVESTING 
    NFTs created a way for digital items to be uniquely identifiable. Compare it to me printing a Picasso on my HP printer at home vs a true original Picasso. One is worth millions, the other one is worth the price of a piece of paper. Now digital assets can be impossible to counterfeit. Sure...

    Classic car leasing business

    Love the idea, I think this would definitely appeal to a lot of people. I would definitely be interested if this got advertised to me.

    Classic car leasing business

    Mileage limits are standard with car leases in the US, tracking isn't but it is a bit different in this situation since he is not offering a purchase at the end of the lease. Tracking is standard at buy here pay here dealerships though, so the concept is very normal here although not popular...

    Electricians - how to turn Fastlane?

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    What problems do you see in the electrical industry? Products that would make the job easier? Safer? Training for electricians? There is a lot more options than just starting an electrician company. I would recommend reading both Unscripted and The Fastlane Millionaire first if you haven't...

    AZ House defeats Apple/Google (no more Apple Tax on Apps?)

    TAXES | REGS 
    I think that would be a valid thing for phone companies to try. I consider it being a gatekeeper to a market. Or a customer base in this case. The value they are bringing is their users, why not charge Apple to access their users? I don't think it would work in this case though, if Google and...

    AZ House defeats Apple/Google (no more Apple Tax on Apps?)

    The $99/year for the account is more so to pay for the tools and software the developers get to use

    AZ House defeats Apple/Google (no more Apple Tax on Apps?)

    TAXES | REGS 
    I don't really understand this. Apple and Android bring millions of users to the their app stores allowing developers and companies to get downloads to their apps... and they want to pay 0% for it? Sure, the percentage is up for debate.. 15-30% may be high but 0% is ridiculous. Apple and...

    Signed a lease on a shop (Service Shop in the Auto Industry)

    NOTABLE! HOT! EXECUTION 
    Nice shop! It is likely due to low search volume which means there is not enough searches for your ad to show, or due to low ad rank which will cause your ads not to show even if there are searches. Have you used the keyword planner to see what estimated volumes there are for the search terms...

    Habits to go ALL-IN on learning something new everyday and helping people.

    MINDSET 
    Cut out the crap. Focus on what matters and make progress daily. For a lot of people, reducing their time on their phone would make them progress more. More time to think, less time consuming.

    NOTABLE! HOT! EXECUTION

    How do you find the market's/people's needs without talking to them? (let's say for example within the field of programming)

    Depends on the need. But a generic answer would be create a 1 page website that talks about the need and ask people to opt in to a form in exchange for X (something they would value or even just to be notified when the product/service is created) so you can see if there is any interest before...

    How do you find the market's/people's needs without talking to them? (let's say for example within the field of programming)

    You talk to people.. on the internet. Don't go around just asking people for their problems. Just listen to what they complain about. Search for forums of various industries that you are interested in. Join them. Interact with them without trying to spam or sell them anything. Just learn about...

    Is it Lindy?

    This. To dominate a fragmented industry you need to create an ecosystem that keeps customers interacting with your company. And you're right, there is a ton of industries that are fragmented with thousands of mom and pop shops. You're creating an ecosystem in your business by doing business...

    Do you think that the central banks will ruin crypto with their own currency and shut out others?

    CRYPTO INVESTING 
    Just because the current currencies do lose value over time does not mean that is a requirement for something to be a currency. And just because the current currencies can be printed as much as we need, doesn't mean it is a requirement. Plus with bitcoin being divisible, the larger the market...

    Braindump: Stop Avoiding Silence with Distractions

    MINDSET 
    Who else can relate to this? If you are driving, you turn on the radio. If I am eating breakfast, I will watch a Youtube video or browse the internet. If I am on the toilet or in bed, I will scroll through Facebook or Instagram. Why? Why do we default to distracting ourselves whenever we...

    First COLD EMAIL example (lets impact the lives of millions!!) Over time of course

    Not really, I learned it here on the forum. I believe it was a post from @amp0193 where he mentioned his emails are only a few sentences long and he wrote a basic template out and explained it a bit. I used this template (introduction, value prop, call to action) to land a meeting with a VP of...

    Great job so far, and congratulations on your sobriety! I love your business name. Encourage U is really creative and memorable. Regarding your email, you want each paragraph to be short so the email doesn't look like a wall of text, and you want to have a call to action at the end that moves...
