    2019 Fastlane Summit - Announcement

    MEETUPS 
    Ironically, I'm posting this from my laptop. But 95% of my time on the forum is done from my phone. I find it much easier to read and navigate on my phone. The only advantage to using the desktop version is when I post long posts on my threads (formatting is easier) or need to multi-quote...

    2019 Fastlane Summit - Announcement

    MEETUPS 
    I definitely agree with this. I submitted my name to speak, and only felt confident because a few people suggested I do it. But, to be honest, even though I have a couple of gold threads already, I still don’t feel like one of the “big dogs” on the forum. My business is still fledgling, we...

    How to advertise a luxury streetwear brand?

    HOT! MARKETING 
    What market opportunity though? You’re telling me there’s a lack of luxury t shirts on the market? You listed several brands earlier. What we are trying to show you is that you’re not providing any genuine value with your products. You’re swimming in a pond full of thousands of other “brands”...

    Why is your shirt worth $170? If you can’t answer this question easily, you need to figure that out first.

    I love the blue lens ones, that look kind of like aviators at the bottom. As always, pieces of art!

    Agree or Disagree: Entrepreneurship is a privilege

    HOT! 
    I'm taking this thread on a slight segway, hop on a small soap box. You ever notice that some of the big players here like Kak, Vig, JasonR, Bio go missing for weeks, even months on end? Its because they're getting sh*t done. They're building. They're working. They're growing. I think I've...

    Here's an idea that some VC's and startups are currently doing. Do an equity earn back. It gets a little more complicated and do not do this without a business lawyer involved. It looks something like this. VC funds you and gets overwhelming majority of ownership. Something like, 90%+ You...

    I’ve blocked all his content on FB. I clicked his page like, a year ago from this thread. I haven’t seen any network or google ads from him in months. It eventually died out.

    As a follow up to that, I only expect this email campaign to have a 1-5% conversion rate. This was simply a “do a few hours of work for low hanging fruit.” If you only have 15 targets you’re going after, you should be picking up the phone or going in person if you really want to convert these

    As far as MailCheat(Chimp)’s TOS.. what mama don’t know, won’t hurt her. Since you’re sending to 15 ish emails, the odds of one or more reporting you for improper emailing are super rare. If you dumped 1,000 emails, yes. However, plain text emails may not be a bad idea either. An app like boomerang...

    I only expect that from a lazy automated email campaign. Once I start sitting through the list and building a targeted calling campaign, I definitely expect the close rate to go significantly higher.

    2019 Fastlane Summit: Preliminary Speaker Call

    If this is like last year, there is a post in the Inside only that has a link to buy tickets. After a set time, he posts it on the outside. There was not an email sent out last year. You pretty much had to keep you eye on the forum all day for a week.

    Thanks for the recommendation @Raoul Duke. @Vigilante made mention of me speaking this year, so if y’all want me to, I’ll throw my hat in. My most likely topic will be on wholesaling to traditional brick and mortars. Hopefully by February I’ll have more exciting things to add into the talk.
