Starting a shampoo business [HELP NEEDED]
The need can already be fulfilled in many ways. For years I've been washing my hair with a bar of soap from the organic store. Works very well. People also use flour (sic!) for washing and many apply apple cider vinegar as a conditioner. Soap bars already come in countless "flavours"...- Patrick Jones

Is 2.5k$ on domain name worth it? Facts inside
HOT!For 2.5k you get another domain name (that is available) plus a custom made website. I'd never pay for a domain. With just a little creativity, there is always an available domain name.- Patrick Jones

Make Money with building Websites: The ultimate Way
HOT!Try both, see what works for you. It depends heavily on country, target audience, etc. You can also try and find out where they network, meet them in person. You don't want to interact with developers from remote countries. For it to produce good results, you will need to have a solid...- Patrick Jones

Another Control Lesson (China clones high profile app game, apple removes original)
From what we've seen so far, 99.9% of Chinese companies do not innovate on top of what they copied. Their research is limited to finding out whom to copy next. Huawei is where they are today, because they have an annual research budget of $15bn.- Patrick Jones

Another Control Lesson (China clones high profile app game, apple removes original)
I see your point. For me innovation is driven by user demand. I listen to what the users want and implement it. If I was concerned about somebody copying me, I could spend extra time on listening to my users. But it wouldn't create new ways of innovating. Just the same way but under higher...- Patrick Jones

Make Money with building Websites: The ultimate Way
HOT!That sounds like building up a web agency. For me the approach outlined in this thread is not fastlane. It's something that allows you to work flexibly, pays good money and teaches you to think in terms of needs and wants. It gives you the freedom and space to build something fastlane.- Patrick Jones

Make Money with building Websites: The ultimate Way
HOT!The latter is what I have experience with. It is easy to convince developers of it, because it requires no investment on their side. You just give them the qualified lead and wait for your commission to be paid. Which obviously requires some trust on your part. How would you imagine a...- Patrick Jones

Make Money with building Websites: The ultimate Way
HOT!As mentioned above, I target businesses that already have a website. They don't need to be sold on the general idea of a website, only the idea of a new one. Fear generally works well for any kind of selling and google provides good tools for striking it into their hearts. Most older websites...- Patrick Jones

Make Money with building Websites: The ultimate Way
HOT!Doing it yourself would again mean investing time in learning a technical skill. Time you could better spend on selling websites and making money. Oursourcing is very difficult, as 99.9% of the cheap developers suck balls. Even if you manage to find a good one, running them well is still a...- Patrick Jones

HOT!My background is in tech, I've been developing software for something like 20 years. For the past three years I've been growing a freelance website business (i.e. I already knew how to code).

Make Money with building Websites: The ultimate Way
HOT!So you want to learn how to program websites? Good. Don't. You can spend hundreds of hours on teaching yourself the basic skills. Then you will be on the same level as half the Indian subcontinent. Only they are willing to work for a fistful of dollars per day. You won't be very good at...- Patrick Jones

Knowledge is power but ignorant people seem happier. I'm empty.
MINDSETTaking care of myself is my baseline, it's the default setting. It's what I aim to do when I get up in the morning. Be it sitting lazily in the café for half an hour or working at the desk for my business. It's something I'm doing for me. What took me a long long time to realize is that I'm in...- Patrick Jones

Knowledge is power but ignorant people seem happier. I'm empty.
MINDSETVolunteering can be a nice thing. And it can also be a selfish thing, serving to provide you with attention and a feeling of worth. In that case, it'll just be another addiction. Like alcohol, shopping, etc. I have experience with therapy and feel that its job is to make me healthy, not to give...- Patrick Jones

Estonian e-Residency
With a traditional bank, no. With Transferwise, yes. For me the bank account functions mostly as a thoroughfare. Most revenue the company makes, I draw out by billing matching amounts from my freelance business (quite common to do that, apparently). That way there is never much floating around.- Patrick Jones
