    NEW Mobile App Feedback: IDKWTD

    I'd change the name of the app. To me it just looks like a text string that's just been put their until you add the real title. Like an unfinished app. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Has Moving to a Warm and Sunny Climate Made You Happier?

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    Jonathan how much would you say was required for a family of 4 to live relatively comfortable in Spain? I know you said above Rent/Bills/food etc is around £1000 a month. Do the Spanish/International schools have similiar school holiday times and lengths to the UK ones?

    Has Moving to a Warm and Sunny Climate Made You Happier?

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    I've been thinking about this again recently and wrote a list of pro's and cons for relocating to a sunnier climate. I'll start with the cons: - Would need to relocate to a different country so initially there would be a language barrier - We socialise with our friends and family most weekends...

    Thanks everybody, great replies and links to information that will help. Also a big thank you to @AndrewNC who's offered me free coaching which i will take him up on early next week. Firstly i think i need to nip the negativity in the bud even from my own staff. I work from home a lot and...

    Dealing with daily pressure of sales being 50% down

    MINDSET 
    At the moment the sales in my business are 50% down compared to last year. This is due to a number of reasons for example, no stock on better selling SKU's due to moving suppliers, some sku's being obsolete, more competitors joining the market. I've been in business for 13 years and the...

    Interesting but what if you've got no idea what caused the negative experience in the first place. For example I have a fear of snakes. I don't recall a specific moment when this happened but if you asked me why I have a fear I'd say I just think there horrible creatures. Or the fact I have...

    Do you want to do it the EASY way, or the HARD way?

    Great thanks. So normally, when you identify a potential product you would buy at least 100pcs to test on FBA? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    @Kung Fu Steve thank you. That certainly hit home. It is a problem that i haven't solved and it's getting to me. It has been for months if i think about it. I would like to offer my sincere thanks for you taking your time to write such a long and detailed reply. And i would also like to thank...

    Hi @biophase i have a question if you don't mind answering. I have identified a product/s that i know are selling already on Amazon.com but with little competition and profit margins are good. I have found the supplier and got the quote which i'm happy with. My plan was to buy 5pcs of each (2...

    Very Interesting thanks. So I've just woken up and checked my shipment in China to see if it's cleared customs yet. No it's still on hold. Has been for 3 days now. We've got no stock of 80% of our lines. Sales are down drastically. My other supplier has sent me a Skype message saying an...

    Are you using the reference to escaping death/living long as a metaphor or not? I'll answer those questions you asked with my current mindset: Why do we want to make money? I want to make money because first of all i hate the fact that my Wife has to travel 40 mins to work to sit at a job each...

    This is exactly what my Wife says to me regarding always wanting more. She didn't write that for you did she? haha. This is also translates to my non working life thinking about it. I have a weight goal that i'm currently trying to achieve so i've set myself a target of 15 miles of running per...

    Hmm very interesting. I think i may need to read that a dozen times or so before it sinks in. Do you think however you needed to experience those things though personally in order to rule them out? I'm a big believer in "why" and i've spent a lot of time thinking about it.

    No it's not. Actually a Range Rover would be desirable but it's not at the top of my list. I had brand new Mercedes Cars before and i know that after the initial buzz the excitement wears off. I would though without a shadow of doubt enjoy the processes more if i was earning £20,000 a month and...

    I did not mean from a fundamental point of view i was referring to more about the daily grind, every day is the same type of thing. Living for the weekend etc. I completely agree what you are saying. However i believe the processes would be enjoyable if i was at the point of earning my desired...

    I hear successful entrepreneurs say it quite a lot on motivation youtube videos or seminars. Instead of focussing on the end goal, enjoy the journey and process along the way they say. Personally for the majority of people in business i think it's bullshit. If you're just starting out in...

    *UPDATE* So it's nearly 2 months now since our last order was seized by customs. If i'm honest these last two months have been an absolute disaster but i've reached the F*ck it point now. Not in the context of whether my business dies or survives but i'm referring to the F*ck it i don't care...
