    What business

    INTRO 
    Good question. The goal of making your first dollar is not to become more wealthy compared to your slowlane job. It is to simply learn new skills that you don't get from your current job. It sounds like you are basically given leads and you close. It is a good skill to have, but not the only...

    Looking for an accountability partner

    INTRO 
    @Nicki generally don't respond to these type of requests but this intrigues me. I'm a PT over in the US. Working on designing a product for patients. Shoot me a DM and we can find a time to talk.

    TikTok May Be BANNED In The US

    HOT! MARKETING 
    Looking at a single factor, namely that we shouldn't ban TikTok because that is against the freedom of the individual is not the only factor at play. Maybe it is the most important factor, and that is fine and legitimate. I am not discounting the very real possibility that banning TikTok can...

    TikTok May Be BANNED In The US

    HOT! MARKETING 
    I'm not going to pretend Instagram is not bad. I also understand the argument to not ban TikTok. I just find it hard to believe that we don't have a duty to protect children from obviously malicious forces. The US makes it illegal for children to drink alcohol or smoke cigarettes before a...

    TikTok May Be BANNED In The US

    HOT! MARKETING 
    Generally, I am in the camp on @Kak in regard to letting people have the freedom to choose. However, I think the question Freedom loving people should ask themselves is, what is freedom. To some, it means freedom to make stupid decisions, to get addicted and to allow your addiction control you...

    Good routine to help on creativity/rigor/finalizing things

    MINDSET 
    Just do it. You have 30 unfinished songs and you're writing a post on how to finish your songs? Either the songs suck and they are not worth finishing, or maybe you just need to sit down and finish them. You don't need some magical routine so you can finish your projects. You wake up, go to...

    Today's my birthday. I couldnt be more disappointed.

    HOT! INTRO 
    When you're in the military, you were always told what your mission and your end goal was. You were trained to excute tasks toward a well defined goal. When you are a civilian, there is no one defoning your goals for you. It sounds like you need to spend some time working out your own goals...

    Participating Whole Life Insurance as an Investment Vehicle - Thoughts?

    INVESTING 
    I have been speaking with a financial advisor recently about different investment vehicles that can set me up well in the future. I was essentially looking for investment strategies that are not the most well-known but have powerful benefits if implemented correctly. My financial advisor...

    Dropshipping- opinion?

    IDEA 
    I think so, but you should have the money to afford it first. There is a lot of free information that is made available to everyone. You will not magically become an entrepreneur just because you're an insider. You do have access to some good threads and can ask more in-depth questions related...

    Dropshipping- opinion?

    IDEA 
    The options are endless, whether it is on the internet or not. Inherently, some businesses are easier to start compared to others. The easier the business is to start, the higher the competition and the less money you will make. Entrepreneurship is not meant to be easy, your goal is to solve a...

    Dropshipping- opinion?

    IDEA 
    A lot is relative and $200,000 as "great money" is certainly subjective. If I was good enough to make $200,000 I would be kicking myself for not selling my own product and making way more money and actually establishing a brand. You would probably make better margins selling white label...

    Import/Export to India

    SOURCING 
    UPDATE: Since my last update about a month ago, I have been speaking with my customs broker who has been quite helpful with some of the confusing aspects of importing. I also received multiple ISO and FDA certifications. What piqued my interest was, how I determine if these certifications are...

    A sewing machine specialist from Nigeria

    INTRO 
    I imagine your profits are being eaten up by a middleman who is importing these sewing machines into Nigeria. Could you go directly to a manufacturer and buy sewing machines directly from them? Do your customers want a very specific brand? If not, could you brand your own sewing machines? This...

    Are you manufacturing sewing machines, selling sewing machines, or using sewing machines to make clothing? There are tons of options, you are only limited by ypur imagination and how you act on those ideas. Most textiles are producedbin countries like India and Bangladesh. Why not also in Nigeria?

    Hi, why so many one post drive bys?

    INTRO 
    Cognitive Dissonance - They post an intro or a bold statement. Once they declare their bold claims, they realize that it actually takes real action which they are not willing to do. They realize the FLF is not about fake BS and people realize they will only get respect for true action and real...

    An already existing product

    IDEA 
    I'm assuming you came up with a concept in your head, you tried to see if it existed and it did. Is that correct? If so, check if it is patented and go from there. Speaking to a lawyer and spending a few $100 is better than spending 3 months trying to learn law just to figure out you can't move...

    16 yr OLD Indian, Stuck in shitHole, Looking for a way out.

    INTRO 
    Sounds kind of like 1/2 of Twitter. How would you force no politics and make it light hearted. How do you plan to make money? How do you plan to monitor certain speech the governments force you to monitor? Building the next social media is bold. Not saying you should or should not try, you...
