    Co-Founder Experiences?

    Totally agree Maverick. I ended up bailing on a company after the co-founders repeatedly failed to follow through on their commitments and take responsibility. @WestCoast don't take this as a vote to not take on a partner though. If you can trust them, they follow through on their...

    Co-Founder Experiences?

    The biggest recommendation I have is to read Slicing Pie. You will be ahead of 90% of founders if you do.

    Anyone here with prior experience developing a food product/brand?

    I work in the industry. The short of it: You need to make connections with people on the inside. People who have relationships with suppliers, co-packers, and retail (chain) stores. Someone who is capable of brokering deals and giving you knowledge about best practices. This is a path filled...

    Co-Founder Experiences?

    BTW, contracts are a must. It's a way of showing that everyone is serious about this and is a litmus test for commitment. Get yourself a good accountant and lawyer. Do yourself a favor, the costs are small in proportion to what you could lose later on. I learned that the hard way, to the tune of...

    Co-Founder Experiences?

    Finding a good co-founder is like a marriage, but even more complicated. I have had three co-founders. My take-away now is to never have a co-founder if I can help it. And if I do have a co-founder, NEVER split 50/50. That's idiotic, because it's not realistic, and you're asking for future...

    What happened in 1971?

    HOT! 
    I remember reading a book about how the Conquistadors found Mayan cities that were using gold to roof their homes. Apparently, the Mayans thought gold was a shitty metal not useful for much. They were kind of right. Terrible for weapons, can't make cookware with it, too soft. It's a pretty good...

    ZeroHedge has a write up and interview with the creators of WTFHappenedIn1971.com about how it went down. As far as crypto, I hear a lot of bankers talk about how Bitcoin will be made illegal (of course, since it poses a serious threat to them). Problem is, that's a very wiley cat to put back...

    Good to see that you are committed to action. I recently went through a FTE and decided to get back to MJ's Kaizen process. If you haven't read his thread yet, it's a great compliment to you taking action, maybe it will help.

    How to be good at sales - book rec's, please.

    For what you are doing, you could check out New Sales, Simplified by Mike Weinberg. Excellent advice on acquiring new clients. The audible version is actually quite good too.

    Digital Marketers - Payment Processing?

    Square, Quickbooks, Stripe, PaySimple. You'll have to do your own homework here because you need to calculate whether or not it will be more beneficial to pay a % of your transaction charges to them as payment, or if, like PaySimple, you pay a consistent monthly charge, in exchange for smaller...
