Starting E-Commerce through FBA or Shopify as a beginner who wants to private label?
Hi all, I've been diligently researching products in the past month and have ordered a few samples from a few different suppliers on Alibaba and believe I have found a good product and a decent niche. However, I would like to play the long game and create a brand around this niche and products I...- fridge

Morals of business and selling
HOT! MINDSETBeautiful! I'm currently reading "How to win friends & influence people" and that book goes into great detail about this rule. Always put it in terms of how the other person can benefit -- people naturally have their own self-interests at heart and tend to perk up when they hear about how...- fridge

Can we smoke weed in the entrepreneurial world?
HOT! MINDSETImo, psychedelics have more properties that would blend with entrepreneurship then weed (or in my opinion, more than any other drug does). Not advocating drug use, but substances like LSD and psilocybin have great potential to spur profound changes in people in ways we don't fully understand yet.- fridge

Med shool is going to shit. Business is going great. Any advice
HOT!While I wasn't going to school to be a doctor, I was going to school for a similar related medical profession for about a year. The schooling drained me to the point of going nights without sleep, breaking up with a long term girlfriend of 3 years, and overall showing that I had no future in...- fridge

Legality of supplements in a product in the USA? Specifically melatonin?
Hi all, I plan to make use of melatonin (in the form of pills or gummies) in a product idea that I am currently creating. Being able to include supplements in my product idea would seemingly boost effectiveness (still TBD), but I'm unsure of what the legality of selling melatonin is in the USA...- fridge

Google offers alternative to college degrees
I think there is, but it is confined to certain industries. For example, I have an associates degree, but with numerous certifications in IT that show I have some competency outside of a classroom. I definitely see anything technology related heading more towards lower college education/more...- fridge

21 year old small business owner looking to get started on the fast lane!
INTROFirstly, welcome to the forums! It sounds like your first business venture was a success. From what I've been reading, service businesses are much harder to scale than other types of businesses (software, books, e commerce), since you need to build systems and rely on and employee additional...- fridge

Opinion: Skipping college is not going to make you fastlane
HOT!Whether going to college is a good idea depends person to person. I personally don't regret going to college (I have a decent job with just an associates, but I work in the tech field). In my opinion, if you don't have mommy & daddy to fall back on, entrepreneurship right out of High School is...- fridge

STOP Paying Rent: Live For Free
GOLD! REAL ESTATEFrom what I've gathered -- is it best to just look at sold properties (duplex/triplex/fourplex) and then contact all the owners in the areas you're interested in? Where I live, there's really not much for sale on the market right now (within reasonable asking price), so would it make sense to...- fridge

feel like beeing pulled in different directions at the same time, all the time
MINDSETI can vouch with what James is saying. You probably have analysis paralysis (I do). The best bet to do is pick 3 ideas, research them a bit, then pick one of those things and do them. Win or lose, you'll gain some experience.- fridge

PayPal Refund - How To Handle This?
PEOPLEThey will take you to collections if you try and skate them, lol. Any advice in the thread that tells you to try and bounce out will just get PayPal to send you to collections. Like I said, I'd try and work with the buyer on this one for a partial or just stomach the loss.- fridge

PayPal Refund - How To Handle This?
PEOPLEHere's the thing my friend, PayPal does not always consider real proof in disputes. This may have changed, and you SHOULD call PayPal and explain the situation, but let me tell you about my experience with PayPal disputes. They would not accept any images/emails as proof during a PayPal dispute...- fridge

Who here has quit social media?
HOT! MARKETING SOCIAL MEDIAI only use Snapchat and very rarely Facebook.. I find the more time I spend on these apps the more depressed I get with my own life.

PayPal Refund - How To Handle This?
PEOPLEPayPal will side with the buyer no matter what. What I would personally do is decide how much that 1.2k means to you. If it means a lot, you can call the buyer and tell them look the service was delivered and if you're not happy with it we can offer a partial refund (I would shoot for $300 then...- fridge
