    This human behavior blows my mind

    PEOPLE 
    THIS quote explains the human behavior that blows MY mind: Somebody passively "disses" you, you don't know the reason why, and you make a thread about it and hope they fail. I found that the psychology behind blowing someone off is a surprisingly complex behavior. As much as I don't LIKE being...

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I wish you had asked 4 months ago. I'd really like to hop on board but I'm trying to keep my focus on just one thing... I've REALLY been looking to get into the social game space... I have a phenominal 2d artist here with experience doing fantasy art, I've been developing the mythos for a...

    Meditation and the Fastlane

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I used to meditate. For a year of my life when I was trying to figure out where I stood on religion, I studied a few eastern philosophies and convinced my martial arts teacher into sharing his meditation tips. i have to say, it didn't really DO anything for me. I find what helps me much much...

    Get off youtube

    HOT! 
    The guy posting motivational videos is the making a better use of his time than the guy telling him to stop. The truly enlightened do not seek to change the behavior of others.

    Amazon Killed My Kindle -

    OFF-TOPIC 
    A month or so ago one of my computer's hard drives failed and I had to replace it. My computer came with no windows instal disk, presumably to discourage pirating in the event I share it with my friends. I had no way of getting a legit copy of windows onto my new hard drive other than paying for...

    Gary Halbert 30 day challenge Copywriting Group

    HOT! MARKETING 
    Anyone who feels "I'd LIKE to take the challenge... but I have too much going on right now" should still get started. From the tone of the letter, it seems that it's designed for those who absolutely HAVE to get good in 30 days... 30 days isn't a necessity, it's a suggested timeframe built on...

    How great websites become worthless... (Craigslist rant)

    They banned a few of my old videos and a few of my client's videos. They're def. making an impact on hardcore video marketers. I had to start using different tactics.

    Ideas for the perfect business name

    IDEA 
    Have you made your first dollar from this business yet? There's a sunken cost fallacy that keeps us from picking something that's just "good enough for now" but remember that you can always rebrand and change names later. This brainpower could go towards making those cold calls to get your first...

    Are any of you guys interested in authenticity, happiness, success mindset?

    I think it's a good idea to narrow your niche and only target men. Men targeted sites are enjoying a nice rise and I expect them to continue for the next few years. Now's a good time to strike. When you compromise your vision in exchange for mass appeal you lose the passion that can arise from...

    Does the Commandment of Time really matter?

    EXECUTION 
    "No employees" is often the goal of the uninitiated. Employees FREE you from time constraints. Human systems can make what looks like an otherwise unsalable business fastlane. His business isn't fastlane. Yes, you can be successful and still not be fastlane. If the people in that show decide to...

    Is having the word "cheap" in my domain name a no no?

    MINDSET 
    If that's your THING, embrace it. Wallmart's fine with saying their stuff is cheap. Economy and Value USPs should make it clear that's what they're selling. I see it as a benefit: People will be expecting cheap.. so if they get it and it's not the best quality... that's fine. People know what...

    I like the moxy, but remember: Fastlane Venture leads to money. Not the other way around. Don't ever let not having enough money be a self limiting factor.

    Video Marketing Q

    MARKETING 
    I can give you some advice but I need some info first. What type of video is best for you will really depend on a few specific things: 1) What's your product/service? 2) What is (or will be) the primary method of traffic generation? SEO? Affiliates? PPC? Social Media? 3) Are you doing this...

Probably going to happen a few times in your life. You know that she wasn't "in the wrong" so just let it go. Yeah it hurts. Know what...

    Best way to learn telesales

    You can just get a legit job as a telemarketer to learn the industry from the inside out. I got a job at a matchmaking company. I had no experience, I've never done anything like that before, and they let me on the phones day 1 to start making calls. As an entry level employee you can see all...

    Viral Video vs Manufacturing Theory Question

    First of all, don't do this. Most likely any "marketing company" that claims to be able to make a "viral video" is just selling BS. Second of all, you build the manufacturing time into the expected delay. When simple sugars' episode of shark tank aired they made new customers wait 4-6 weeks to...

    Viral Marketing Videos

    I did a casting call for a short film I directed 7 years ago.. I had around 75 craigslist 'confirmed' actors and only 4 showed up to the audition. It's true that Craigslist is pretty much crap. Where do you live? I now use "NewEnglandFilm.com" for any industry contacts I need to make.. but I'm...

    The ad agency I used to work at was in Chinatown in Boston, and the area was very bad. I had to walk by 2 homeless shelters and a rehab center on my way to work. This may not have 'saved my life' but it certainly saved me from harassment.
