    Do you think a patent is required?

    Yep, what @Kak said. I went through the full cycle here with provisional, then full app + design patent for my product. Each case is different though, and there isn't always a straight answer as to why or why not you should patent. But it doesn't hurt to do at least a provisional (which you can...

    What if you could live at the Starbucks in say...Scottsdale.

    OFF-TOPIC 
    No shit, lol. THIS x 1000! For me, it has now been just over a year since I made the big leap and moved to Scottsdale (which I talked a lot about here; https://www.thefastlaneforum.com/community/threads/finally-moving-to-scottsdale-arizona.53494/ ) 10 / 10 would do again! ;) It was one of...

    Eskil's Progress Thread: Starting a Supplement Business from Scratch

    EXECUTION 
    LOL... I realize I must look like an alcoholic with some serious issues with that background.. :D I've never been drunk in my life actually but I do enjoy my casual drink now and then. To me, nothing beats a good rum and coke, so yeah - rum will always be my favorite. :) Try Blue Chair Bay rum...

    Eskil's Progress Thread: Starting a Supplement Business from Scratch

    EXECUTION 
    I love Shopify and can highly recommend it. I'm just about to start up with ReCharge, so I can't say for sure yet how I will like it. It seems decent though, and I think you will be hard pressed to find a better combination at a price that low. $50 isn't really anything to sweat over, even if...

    Eskil's Progress Thread: Starting a Supplement Business from Scratch

    EXECUTION 
    I have my main one and two in the pipeline that are not launched yet, so just one active. No need to wait for more products before you start using Shopify. Remember that is also what I use to sell my other main product, and aside from upsells in my cart there, I don't have it set up yet with...

    Berkeley study shows announcing your goals might defeat the purpose..

    MINDSET 
    MJ recently moved a bunch of nonsense-threads (like "Watch me become a billionaire in 2 months..." type threads) to a dark corner of the forum where they belong :) Well I saw this study today and couldn't help but think of this. It really supports why these types of threads are a waste of...

    Eskil's Progress Thread: Starting a Supplement Business from Scratch

    EXECUTION 
    I guess I should update this thread too, lol... I have sold out a few times now, but yesterday received another shipment of bottles so i can restock yet again; I have also decided to make the switch from UltraCart to Shopify. I really do like UltraCart, but it does require a bit more time to...

    Effective Immediately... (Re: Declaration Threads)

    IMPORTANT! 
    Thanks MJ for cleaning up! Threads like those can really drag down the first impressions of the forum as seen by casual visitors, and to old members they're just annoying as f*ck. You hit the nail on the head there. That's essentially the core essence of quality content. It's great having a...

    Case Studies & Resources for Dominating Social Media Marketing [MasterThread]

    MARKETING SOCIAL MEDIA 
    Came across this new Shopify addon (still in beta) that looks to have potential for expanding on your social media, semi-automatically; http://www.discoshare.com/ At checkout, it gives every customer an incentive to get a rebate if they post a photo of your product(s) on Instagram after...

    New Forum Sponsor (Global Wealth Protection)

    MARKETPLACE 
    Just came here to say - to anyone who doesn't know Bobby / @GlobalWealth - he is an extremely knowledgeable guy in this field. Having personally seen a few of his presentations on this subject at the Fastlane meetups, there is no questioning the value and expertise that he and his services...

    Fastlane on the Golf Course

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Yeah I wish I could have joined this time too, but maybe next time. Any similar golf events coming up this year other than this annual thing?

    The 1st Fastlane Poker "home game" Is In The Books!

    MEETUPS 
    Wow, I made it to 2nd place last night in the first Hold'em Poker Tourney! :) Only beat by @biophase after all the other players got eliminated one by one into the late hours of the night. For the first time I really felt like I knew what I was doing and could grasp the game fully. Hey this is...

    Ethan's First Product Licensing - From Start to Finish

    Hey there, Yes - just file for a PPA either way. It's cheap ($65 - $125) and pretty quick (2-4 weeks), and better to be safe than sorry ;)

    So you want to move to Scottsdale?

    MEETUPS 
    We decided to rent at first, as it gives us time to get to know different areas better while we live here for a while. The goal is to eventually buy though, once we have familiarized much better with the various neighborhoods, market pricing, etc.

    So you want to move to Scottsdale?

    MEETUPS 
    How did I miss this thread...? Lol.. Well for those who need a testimonial from another Fastlaner who took the leap, take it from me. We made our move here last August (at the hottest time of the year), and we *LOVE* it here!! Here's the thread I posted about it, with more pros / cons (pretty...

    The 1st Fastlane Poker "home game" Is In The Books!

    MEETUPS 
    If there's anything I have learned now after numerous poker nights, it is that I did better the very first time (I actually didn't lose it all the first time believe it or not) - when I had ZERO clue what I was doing, and basically did random actions and bets (lol). 100% of all nights since...

    2016 Fastlane Summit (Pre-Hype Presentations Possibilities!)

    MEETUPS 
    Challenge accepted! And yeah I would also love to hear from some of those who couldn't make it this year that you listed. I like your idea too, @thorn about checking in on a select group of people who did what they could for big changes from 2015-2016.
