    Welcome Rick, You've found the best source of information on the planet for entrepreneurs. Read the book if you haven't, read all of the gold threads, but most importantly just start. Your plan has been used by countless successful people before you and is certainly a good one. Looking forward...

    Axiom's Supplement Company

    EXECUTION 
    Yeah, that's my bad. I meant markup, as in I buy for $5, sell for $15-$20 (not real numbers).

    Axiom's Supplement Company

    EXECUTION 
    Well my first order was only about $500, which is far less than most people think. Of course, I designed the label and logo myself which saved me some money (probably around $200). However like I said above, supplements are all about the branding, meaning the real costs will start racking up...

    Axiom's Supplement Company

    EXECUTION 
    Hey guys, I figured its about time that I created a progress thread. The plan is to make this a place to track my progress and write down little pieces of information I learn along the way. I'm starting a supplement company--yes I know, nothing new or revolutionary. But the supplement market is...

    What is your morning routine?

    MINDSET 
    I just toss n' wash. It isn't as bad as you might think and it gets the job done in three seconds as opposed to an hour for the tea.

    What is your morning routine?

    MINDSET 
    5 am- Wake up. I kept my alarm at the other side of my room to make sure I had to get up to turn it off, but now I can get up no problem. Even if I stay out late the night before, I get up at 5--I prefer taking a nap if need be than sleeping in. 5:00-5:15am- Shower, get dressed, shave with a...

    well after the six months or whatever one of two things will happen: 1. They have followed your plan (assuming its quality) and have successfully started their freight business. or 2. They realize its not for them. I can tell you for sure that the lazy ones will drop the whole thing before six...

    Without knowing too much about your business, I'd say a subscription content deal could be a good option. You say they want the magic bullet, yet they are still in the dark about actually implementing the things you taught them. So what I'd do is create a membership-only site/guide that gives...

    Your take on launching 2 businesses with a friend?

    HOT! 
    I'd give it a try, because having a business partner you like could give you the motivation to keep going when things inevitably don't go as you planned. On the other hand, figure out which is more important to you--keeping your friend or your business--as it very well could come down to that...

    That "ONE SECRET", Your Best Advice for the Aspiring Entrepreneur

    GOLD! 
    There’s the life you want, and there’s the one you have. The secret that only the extremely successful know is that the only barrier between the two is yourself.

    Should I focus on high school or business?

    I can relate. I'm 17 and I'm a senior in HS (only because I skipped junior year). Once I realized that the only thing I was doing there was absorbing meaningless information and spitting it back out onto a test only to forget about it a day later, I reorganized my priorities a bit. Now I sit in...

    Why do i feel like shit

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Dude, don't trust anything you see on Facebook. People can post anything they want, so you can bet your a$$ that they are posting things that will try to gain attention to their "great lives". But its artificial. It helped me a lot when I simply deleted my personal social media.

    Fear of Not Doing Enough

    MINDSET 
    I know the feeling. I'd say the best thing to do is identify the most important, big picture stuff, that will take you where you want to go in the least amount of time possible (80/20 rule, look it up). The most successful people in the world don't work hard--they don't just fill up their...

    noob question!!

    MARKETING 
    Totally agree with Mr. B, the best way to 'learn how to sell' is by selling, a process I'm devoting the majority of my time to at the moment. I would add though that the key to selling things is by getting inside the head of the person you are selling to. You have to have an incredibly clear...

    This forum is very impressive!

    INTRO 
    Welcome man, I totally agree with you; this forum is a goldmine for information, connections, and overall motivation. I have found that other forums catered towards 'entrepreneurs' are just full of wannabes that get jealous when someone else experiences some semblance of success. Here, there...

    Luxury Brands

    EXECUTION 
    No, I definitely don't think a celebrity is necessary--at least in the beginning. To me, it seems like the best and strongest brands are created not from the product, but from the feeling it gives you. As humans, we are naturally attracted to better lives, for obvious reasons. Luxury brands...
