    Castleforge's Non-fiction Progress Thread

    EXECUTION 
    First Book: So the first book I released under CastleForge Media was titled: Doctor Conversion's Mindcontrol Handbook: 10 Evil Video Tricks Anybody Can Do It was all about raising conversions from your videos. I was really going for something both serious and fun at the same time. This is the...

    Private: Women only

    I notice you're not an Insider. Lot's of legendary stuff on the inside. That's the place to go if you don't want to wade through beginner stuff.

    Progress thread: Apemania's Sword & Sorcery fiction

    PUBLISHING 
    Congrats. I plan to tackle fantasy fiction at some point down the road, but I get the feeling mine will be a LOT less 'action packed' than yours. Good luck!

    Where do you work on your startup?

    When I needed space to shoot my videos in and I didn't have any, I bartered services to sublet a space of another business. When I worked at the ad agency, we identified exciting startups we wanted to be friends with and donated them an entire floor of our building just for the hell of it. I...

    Have access to unused warehouse/office space. How do I maximize this asset?

    I would paint some portable walls green/blue/white and set up a portable studio. Proper video needs lots of room to light talent independent of BG. Make some kick a$$ promo videos and web shows.

    How are you making best of your slow lane?

    When I first saw the thread I rolled my eyes. I thought it would be about how you all reward yourselves for being mediocre. But well done OP. Your thought process is totally fastlane. Squeeze and save as much as you can so you can put it into action later. It's hard to do and I respect you for...

    Any advice on what makes a good bizness name?

    I've always been about branding. If my biz name doesn't say something about the personality of my biz then I reject it. It's why I use Castleforge Media rather than Dennis Duty Enterprises. I like my business to stand for something. The name should reflect that.

    Entrepreneurship - Our Line of Work...is Cut-throat.

    If you can switch your classes do so immediately. don't study entrepreneurship. That's the most insane thing I've ever heard of. Pick up some classes that will benefit your entrepreneurial journey. College helped me out as an entrepreneur, but no from taking entrepreneurial classes. I went to...

    former student of the foundation(dane maxwell) willing to answer questions

    NOTABLE! 
    Dane was teaching SaaS because that's what he knows and is good at. It'd be impossible to outline a step by step guide to both SaaS, ecom, manufacturing, employee temping, legal aid, etc. He's found success with SaaS and teaches other people to keep searching until they find a solution you can...

    Your point is valid. Your reasoning is valid. SaaS doesn't fit you,it doesn't make you happy, you don't want to be involved with it. All that is understood. The only thing I'm talking about is this: The GOAL isn't to make money. The RESULT is making money.

    You know that value given = wealth received. You tried SaaS and it didn't "work." You say eCommerce might be a "better option." Examine these statements. SaaS didn't "work". Didn't work do to what? To make you money? To make you successful? To take you where you want to be? eCommerce might be...

    It's not wrong to ask for a refund in this situation. The guarantee was what sold you on the program. You didn't jump to ask for a refund, you continued to try to do what you were taught and it just didn't stick. --- I respect that he lived up to his promise, but I do think it's dangerous for...

    I guess I can see where your coming from. The "product" of the foundation promises results, which it may or may not deliver based on the individual applicant. Looking past that, I just think that 6 months (182 days) is more than enough time to get one single paying client for a minimum viable...

    Embarrassing video of me

    FUNNY 
    A little background: It was 2009. At the time I was taking classes during the day and working with clients after. The submission deadline for an award show (The AIME awards) was that night. I had already submitted two videos (which went on to win for "Best Corporate Video" and "Best Original...

    Disclaimer: I don't have strong feelings one way or another on whether the foundation is a good investment or not. To each his own. I think you could have too. If there's some imaginable situation where you could have pulled it off with the right motivation... and you didn't try THAT HARD...

    How has gmail adding the 'promotions' tab affected your open rate? (either for the foundation or SaaS promotions?) do you do anything to actively combat it?

    Private forum - Authors

    PUBLISHING 
    I like the idea of a non-indexed board where authors can let down their hair and talk about things they know their audience won't see. If it exists it should be password protected. There's already the speedway which isn't indexed and requires a low minimum speed. Might as well just post in...

    Dane Maxwell AMA-- SaaS, Membership Sites, The Foundation

    NOTABLE! SAAS / APPS EXECUTION 
    I want to hear a lot more about this. So you've got a SaaS app built. You have a target market, and you know how to reach them (FB, email lists, ads, whatever). How is the webinar structured? Is the entire webinar an overview on how to use your software? Do you present a problem, give a few...

    I'll be honest with you guys. While I'm never big into things LIKE the foundation (just not my style) I tend to think the reason you didn't "make it" wasn't because the system was broken or the material unorganized... It's because you just didn't hustle hard enough. If Dane had made all your...
