    8 Eyewear: From Idea, to Launch, to Growth (And Quitting the Job)

    IDEA 
    Hey Vick.. you said 95% of your business was in the states (I think).. Have you considered changing the default currency to US $? (Can you do that if your business is in Canada?) Whenever I go to a site and see that I have to buy something in Euros, pounds, or Canadian dollars I always look for...

    Sam Walton Reveals his Secret to Successful Retailing

    PEOPLE 
    Maybe we are interpreting things differently.. to me it seems like he's saying his sales were good in the beginning, but then he started raising prices to maximize his margins and that's what caused him to lose customers... + whatever other general things he has done to provide more value to...

    Nootropics? Anyone familiar with them?

    HEALTH 
    This is a little off-topic, but it seems like everyone has ventured off into different health related stuff... Has anyone ever had a blood test for food sensitivities or nutrient deficiencies and used a new diet or supplements to remedy these sensitivities or deficiencies? This is something...

    Sam Walton Reveals his Secret to Successful Retailing

    PEOPLE 
    His lack of sales was due to trying to make things better for himself instead of adding value to the customer.. ie he raised prices to increase his margin which takes away from the value he gives to the customers.

    EXECUTION 
    Yeah. Might be something worth looking into, but not right now. Should I have waited 20 days to start so it could have been on the 1st? :D Green bars I opened up paint and made it 1,000 pixel width, then I just draw a line at the pixel I'm at and fill in.. ($500=50% if the goal is $1,000)

    EXECUTION 
    Thanks for the support :) I can invest a good portion of what I'm making into other things, but not all of it. I need 1,200ish for living expenses. Outsourcing my work worries me because then I'm putting my reputation in the hands of other peoples' ability to meet deadlines. Probably won't do...

    My life sucks, so I'm going to make $1,000,000 in 12 months

    EXECUTION 
    I agree 100% that you have to make people happy in order to make money. The two inevitably go hand-in-hand. If you don't provide value, you don't make money. If you do provide value, you do make money. I think it's a pretty simple concept that gets somewhat overblown, for good reason, when...

    EXECUTION 
    Since I last posted I have made $972.. bringing my total to 2144 on day 29. Tomorrow will make the 1 month mark. So I've passed the 1 & 2 month bench marks, which of course was going to be a lot easier than what's to come. By the end of month 3, I'll need to be at 4k, which wont' be a problem...

    Know that feeling when your heart sinks after reading something incredibly sad? I had that happen today when I read this article about a dying little girl. One line in particular really struck a chord for me... "Addie told her mom she wanted friends like her two older sisters and to be able to...

    EXECUTION 
    Yes only one. Not making much. 1-3 sales per day. I still have some free days to use to bump up its rank, but I'm not expecting much of anything from that one. Most of my money is coming from my freelance writing yet. I'm getting better jobs/better clients, and I'm still working on moving up to...

    Won't break it down by days, but since last week I've made $365 So on Day 19: $1,165/$1,000 I've reached my first month's goal in less than 19 days. I've been a lot more productive, and I was talking to someone over PM about things I've done to help me stick to a routine, so here they are...

    I'm going to move up to the next pay level on my writing platform. I'm going to start outsourcing non-fiction books. I'm going to finish a couple of my own books. I don't have any particularly special plan for capitalizing on Christmas.

    I think the fact that we are here on a forum automatically puts us in the "online" category, which is why it may feel like everyone here is doing online stuff.
