    What do you use for your project proposal?

    I totally agree with that. Don't sell in the email, only in the proposal itself. The email cover note should be as short as possible, something like this: Subject: Proposal attached for Widget Central project Mr. C. and Team, I've attached The Scuur Group's proposal for the Widget Central...

    Welcome Ludo! For someone who doesn't like reading, you're excellent at writing. ;) What good fortune for you to have found MJ's ideas, before you made huge commitments to many "typical things everyone does"... but that are not an intentional choice for you. There's nothing wrong in...

    Thoughts on Gambling Business Concept

    Your business concept has several huge risks that are totally outside of your control. 1. Gambling is heavily regulated in most nations, states, and localities. It might be illegal for you to offer a gambling service, depending where you're located. It might be illegal for your customers to...

    Thoughts on Gambling Business Concept

    You really need to learn how to add some blank lines, to make paragraphs. Like I'm doing here. It makes things so much easier to read. Would you be willing to edit your post, so it's not one massive wall of text that's very difficult for people to follow?

    Robert kiyosaki method

    HOT! REAL ESTATE 
    Hi Tanner, welcome to the forum. I suggest you don't waste any more time on Kiyosaki, and instead focus on MJ's advice and other great resources you can learn about from the forum. Robert's a hell of a great storyteller, brilliant with emotional hooks. He shakes up people's preconceptions...

    What if we were predestined to believe we had free will, and to take the actions that we seemed to choose for ourselves? :eek:

    Service industry in a subscription form without getting overrun?

    Absolutely, there are standard ways to handle this in a contract. Examples include Terms of Service, Service Level Agreement, and Scope Of Work. Here's a simple example, from a company I don't have any connection with. Best Value DNS Pricing | DNS Made Easy "Hi, I'm a customer in your...

    That's exactly what I was hoping for! Thank you for letting me know. This provides peace of mind for me to move ahead with it. For a start, I simply want to host web sites (each from a different domain name) using Wordpress with a basic caching plugin. These will initially be for demo...

    Yes, a few years ago someone else (not Beyonce) was getting an award for her video, and Kanye jumped on stage, grabbed the mic, and said "IMMA LET YOU FINISH, BUT BEYONCE HAD ONE OF THE BEST VIDEOS OF ALL TIME, OF ALL TIME!!" The original person didn't get to finish her speech because suddenly...

    I'm sorry to learn about the medical issue. Glad to learn the ladies love the look. Suggest maybe add a hat for your business look? It's about time for somebody to bring the fedora back in style, maybe it could be you?

    Couldn't ask for a more sincere, humble and heartfelt response to criticism. Very graciously handled in a thoughtful way. Way to go! A couple of things to remember... The forum has new people joining every day. Also, it has many members who have never encountered you before. For those...

    Looks like you're using Robert Kiyosaki's Cashflow Quadrants grid. Not sure if that was original from him, but I saw it first from him. There's a lot to dislike about what he says, but I think that quadrant concept is brilliant and really useful.

    You might already have a thread on this, but have you discussed what you see as next steps for you? You overlooked something critical. The bullet train might actually go to Wisconsin... 500 mph across the prairie, direct to Cheese World! Now there's something that really matters! :hilarious:

    MJ's books. MJ's books. Guy Kawasaki's book "The art of the start." Watch his presentations on Youtube. The "startup school" material from YCombinator, although it's almost all focused on building software to conquer an industry. MJ's books!

    Many types of services require only that you show up, offer to be of service, and close a sale. Sometimes you have to put some money in up front... for a web development company, maybe some hosting fees; for a window washing company, a bucket and sponges etc. There are several threads here to...

    That's one way to look at it... another is, if they're that incompetent, maybe they'll be able to drive themselves out of business without any of your help!
