    I need brutal honesty pls. Tk you

    HOT! IDEA 
    OK, you were born in the '50s and time traveled to the 21st century. Different times, different attitudes. Perhaps. Mostly what I hear is you don't respect them either. Entirely different story. I never gave much thought to it at your age but suspect I'd have sounded pretty much the same...

    I need brutal honesty pls. Tk you

    HOT! IDEA 
    Well, this has been an interesting, extremely non-TFF kind of thread. Doesn't the answer depend entirely on age, demographic and country? Among a bunch of other things? Someone mentioned the poll in Singapore. Good luck finding a matching poll from Brazil or Saudi Arabia. The reality is that...

    Taking Legal Action

    QUESTION 
    Most likely you'll find all claims are subject to arbitration like every credit card agreement. Good luck.

    Most any biz can be CENTSified. Ha, just made that up. :) More trucks, more stalls, restaurants, food products, catering, cooking lessons - all of which can CENTSified. I somehow always get the impression that CENTS for most people means either launching the next Google / Chipotle / Red Bull or...

    Journey to $10k/mo and Beyond...

    EXECUTION 
    No one can answer that for you, so just stick with the simplest possible metric. Are you making sales? Are you making more sales than last month? Will you make more sales next month? Obviously, you can't sell anything without a product or service. Step #1 is identifying a market/need, Step #2...

    Journey to $10k/mo and Beyond...

    EXECUTION 
    Kudos on your perseverance. It's admirable. Isn't it the same problem in all your efforts? The N in CENTS is "Need". None of your prospects seem to have it. I've spent far too many years pushing the boulder up the same mountain with above average results due to sheer willpower and...

    Americans believe that you need an average net worth of $2.5 million to be considered wealthy, according to a new survey. The survey, conducted by Logica Research from March 4-18 and released by Charles Schwab, found that the average net worth Americans think it takes to be “wealthy” has gone up...

    What advice can you give me after my failed business?

    EXECUTION 
    Mmmm, too broad especially for a business with no marketing dollars. Here's a couple of ideas to roll around. 1. The customized blueprint is a good idea, but I wonder whether it's better delivered as a live "nutrition counseling session" or something like that. Prospects would be buying the...

    What advice can you give me after my failed business?

    EXECUTION 
    Have you done any basic market research meaning actually talking with potential customers? Tough place to start. Probably a killer roadblock all by itself. Pretty much all legit marketing advice starts with "Identify the target market" because it helps you figure out what they might want, what...

    Looking How to Prepare a Business for Sale... Free Sources

    IDEA 
    Try looking for a buyer due diligence checklist instead of just seller resources. Especially one that's industry specific. Example: Empire Flippers is specifically for buying and selling online businesses, but it's the same idea. They have a bunch of resources *way* more detailed than this page...

    Scaling a window cleaning company

    Or throwing eggs at the competitor windows. Eggs are cheap. Or maybe you should just throw eggs at everyone's windows and stick a flyer on the door for window cleaning. :rofl:

    Scaling a window cleaning company

    Someone once posted somewhere there's a window cleaning biz doing $500M annual turnover. :) I've been wondering how you were getting *anything* done while still in school. This might not be the biz you love forever - or even for the rest of 2024 - but clearly it's got some legs. The things you...

    Most Billionaires Don't Change The World

    SUCCESS! 
    We've been buying kitchen towels from this business for quite awhile now. First purchased from the Sante Fe farmers market years ago simply because it was a great product. I didn't learn about the back story until 2-3 of years later. Kei & Molly started the company in 2010 to provide work for...

    Most Billionaires Don't Change The World

    SUCCESS! 
    Completely agree that "changing the world" is another Nike or Apple commercial campaign slogan, but that doesn't make profit the end all be all for living. That equation ignores legions of founders with no real interest in making money for themselves. They start NGOs, charitable organizations...
