    AMA: New Supplement Biz, Profitable in Month 1

    AMA 
    We've considered doing sample packs, but since we're self funded we didn't think it was the best idea to put a bunch of capital into something that we wouldn't make money from. We'll get into smaller sizes soon for distribution at college campuses and startup incubators soon though.

    AMA: New Supplement Biz, Profitable in Month 1

    AMA 
    Hey fastlaners, I've been posting here for a while on blogging and internet marketing strategies, but I just launched my new business @ naturalstacks.com and after less than one month we are profitable and are clearing XX,XXX this month. It's enough to buy a ton of MacBooks. As an...

    Case Study: How I make 4K monthly from an "UNPROFITABLE" Blog

    We were targeting independent automotive repair shops. Why did it fail? Lack of oversight with the programming lead. A lot of trust was built into the relationship and we were let down. We had the product pre-sold but were unable to deliver to consumers. It was embarrassing. After losing...

    Making $500 Per Month on New Adsense Site (But That's Not The Major Win)

    MARKETING 
    Easter Eggs are little hidden nuggets that only people who actually want the job will find and reply to. Here are a few that I use: Reply with your favorite sports team (inserted in description) Attach a picture of an elephant (somewhere random) Explain why [recent news item happened] (for...

    Making $500 Per Month on New Adsense Site (But That's Not The Major Win)

    MARKETING 
    I wouldn't say it's magic and the only thing you have to do, but it's a good amount of base links that you could do for 30% of the price with a good freelancer + ultimate demon or something like that.

    Making $500 Per Month on New Adsense Site (But That's Not The Major Win)

    MARKETING 
    This is difficult. It's easier to work off of referrals from other people who have used them before, but when finding them yourself there's a lot of things you can do to eliminate the bad ones off the bat. Look at the hours, body of work and throw like 3-4 easter eggs inside of your job...

    Making $500 Per Month on New Adsense Site (But That's Not The Major Win)

    MARKETING 
    I built a new niche site back in June and last month it made over $500. That's an incredible amount of money for a small niche site competing for 2-3 main keywords and a ton of longtails. I spent a little over $350 making it, but I've already doubled up on doing it. So yes, even though there...

    Are You Profiting off the BITCOIN wave?

    HOT! INVESTING 
    I did the same thing as well. Had some fun and currently waiting for the next crash to buy in a little bit more. With all of the government info leaking and TOR usage going through the roof, you know that a silk road meltdown is coming and the market will tank.

    Case Study: How I make 4K monthly from an "UNPROFITABLE" Blog

    It was always an outsiders thing, never accepted into the mainstream. Popular EDM songs are in commercials and played at major sporting events now. This never had such a scale before.

    Case Study: How I make 4K monthly from an "UNPROFITABLE" Blog

    Major music movements start out as little rebellious periods and slowly grow until they reach the mainstream, then corporate interests get involved and it explodes! You can't watch a commercial without hearing some serious bass music or go to a mall without being consumed by neon. We had hip...

    Case Study: How I make 4K monthly from an "UNPROFITABLE" Blog

    A few months ago I quit my job. In the time since then, I have gone from a minor depression and questioning whether I could find the fastlane to monetizing an unprofitable asset. Now I'm back risking it all on a joint venture e-commerce business with a partner that I've never even met in real...

    Nootropics & I (Progress Thread)

    EXECUTION 
    I have been taking Modalert (generic) for the past two weeks. I don't think that everything is true about it, but it's still a very powerful tool. I've found it lasts for about 7 - 8 hours solid ability to focus with full clarity. I can still eat on it and get even better when I'm in social...

    I don't think everyone is talking about it yet. Maybe people who are hooked into the web, but when your neighbor says HEY HAVE YOU HEARD OF BITCOIN? That's when the bubble is here. I'm having a good time playing around with it now. :coolgleamA:

    Are You Profiting off the BITCOIN wave?

    HOT! INVESTING 
    I've been following Bitcoin for a few months now and have just been able to get over missing out on taking a position in January when it was roughly 10 USD = 1 BTC. Now depending on the day, hour or latest news article the price can vary dramatically. I'm not involved with too many stocks, but...

    Are You Visualization to Achieve Your Goals in Life and Business?

    MINDSET 
    For me visualization started at the basic level with skateboarding. I was obsessed with jumping down stairs and grinding rails and would always see myself doing the trick before attempting it. My short lived career in skateboarding is over, but I do use visualization everyday in my business...
