    Why does everyone love Think and Grow Rich

    HOT! 
    I may be among the minority (not sure) but I love TAGR, even if it is boring. It was the first 'self-help' book I ever read, it was boring, I fell asleep reading it a lot, but I pushed through it, and honestly I can't even read fiction now, it just feels like a waste of my time. It sparked my...

    Do I have to leave my job when I receive seed funding?

    PEOPLE 
    You could probably keep doing your day job after you received seed funding. But the question is, why would you want to? If you're really excited about your idea then you should be excited about being able to live lean and pursue it full time. Good luck!

    MINDSET RANT 
    You love to talk and think but it hasn't crossed your mind to DO. Which tells me you're lazy. You're hoping someone else not as lazy as you will fix what you perceive as a problem. I'm sure there are other people out there that agree with your thoughts but if all these people want change and...

    Is door to door selling dead?

    MARKETING 
    It's all three because it's your point of view that matters. - you believe your experience matters, it doesn't, you're the expert compared to the person you're talking to (it helps but it doesn't matter) - you believe it's the product, it's not, everyone needs to feel safe but you have to...

    Poor Choices prototypes are finally here!

    EXECUTION 
    I'm proud of you. You took an idea stuck with it through production, which a lot of people wouldn't do. You identified a huge reason people have shiny object syndrome, if you can distill your thoughts and experience into a small book you might have something you can add to your business card. I...

    Friends, please comment on my blog

    EXECUTION 
    Answer this question: Why Should I Listen To You? - Have you achieved your own success? If so, what? - Degrees are a footnote to any real success - If you haven't been successful in something outside of a 9-5 job, do you really think anyone should listen to you about how to help themselves...

    Dealing with Network Marketers?

    I would say "no thanks" every time. But if you really want to get them talking ask about how much they currently earn. They'll tell you about the top earner and how much they plan on earning, etc etc. It's hilarious, just a waste of time.

    Law of Effection...FB ads...music.

    MARKETING 
    Buy usb sticks in bulk with your logo and load up your album with art/videos and pass those out in an alluring black envelope. Just a quick idea, might not be cost effective.

    How laziness and doubt cost me licensing opportunities.

    EXECUTION 
    Well you've proven two things that I think are important. 1) You can recognize iconic type figures almost inherently and you know people will buy them (plus you can make them). 2) You realized your mistake. Take these two things, fix the mistake and you've got a successful mindset moving...

    Homejoy Is Shutting Down At The End Of The Month

    HOT! 
    While I'm sure the pending employee classification was a scary thought to them I don't think that's what knocked them out, not even charging so little and losing money drove them out of business, Uber has done the same thing just with a bigger warchest. What caused the downfall or would have...

    To Put Prices on a Website or Not - Service Business

    MARKETING 
    I would include your prices hands down. I'm like Biophase in that if I don't see the prices listed on a site I move on to their competitor. I'm sure you're wondering why, it's simple, I like to make quick decisions and if you add another step to my decision making process (especially a phone...

    Fed up!!! Going back to a 9 to 5 life !

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Why not hire some education majors at a local university or even young teachers that are off for the summer? They're all experienced at handling kids or at least will try their best to be amazing at it. You might even be able to offer the university students some sort of credit if you would talk...

    Introverts as Entrepreneurs

    MINDSET 
    Introverts are awesome, I'm one myself. But as it's been mentioned before being an introvert means you recharge through alone time. That's where the description really stops I believe. I used to be very shy on top of being an introvert but I wanted to learn how to meet girls in highschool so I...

    Possible Billion Dollar Idea... Can it REALLY happen?

    HOT! IDEA 
    While I admire your thought process it doesn't seem like a viable business for you or the restaurants. I could be wrong and for your sake I hope I am! Option 1: Create a trashcan that can detect when silverware is dropped in and beep, etc. Problem: It would be costly R&D which means you'd...

    Have you ever walked away from a sale?

    Yes I've walked away from sales more than once. Basically echoing what has already been said, if they will take up more of your time with petty issues repeatedly and drive your earnings per time down then walk. However, you aren't dealing with the "deal makers" that's the only time this advice...
