    MEETUPS 
    I didn't get a ticket, but will be in town and hanging out after hours. If I can grab a ticket if someone drops out I'll probably do that.

    2020 Fastlane Summit at Talking Stick Resort... Event Info

    MEETUPS 
    I was broke at 22 too, so I feel your pain. However, you'll later realize that the ticket prices are very cheap. I just paid $1500 for VIP early bird tickets to another event, and I'll spend another $1k+ on hotels and $2-3k on airfare. My first Fastlane Meetup I put it on my credit card...

    2020 Fastlane Summit at Talking Stick Resort... Event Info

    MEETUPS 
    I'll likely attend as I'll already be in the states for another conference in Texas. Not super interested in speaking this time around.

    Ask me anything about eCommerce (Ongoing)

    GOLD! 
    I wouldn't even worry about this. Any site that gets any traffic will get spam and crawlers of some sort. Focus on selling/getting your business up and ignore all the other noise, like this.

    How many products should I start with for a new cosmetic business?

    What's unique about your products? Skin care is one of the most saturated and competitive categories out there. Are you sure you can compete?

    Emergency Fund, Do You Have One?

    MINDSET 
    Yes, I have more than enough to live on for 1 year - the rest I invest. 6 months is probably sufficient, but it's nice to have more of a buffer. I also don't have a lavish spending style. I spend way less than can afford, on purpose. I spend a small amount on "toys" - motorcycle, watch...

    [GUIDE] Facebook Ads Made Simple (That Even Your Mom Can Understand) 2019 Edition

    NOTABLE! MARKETING SOCIAL MEDIA 
    Please go into more detail. I feel like you're brushing the surface with this guide. What do you define as a "warm lead?" How do you target these people? Is a warm lead someone who watched 40% of your first video, etc.? These metrics are just as important as your actual creative. This is...

    Ecommerce and its Gurus: Does it work in 2019?

    I did forgot to mention one key thing - whatever you're doing you should be building your OWN BRAND - not someone else's. There are hundreds of brands that have sold for 7 and 8 figures that have been built entirely on Amazon. I'm not saying only focus on Amazon - but don't be scared to start...

    Where and how to find good virtual assistant?

    You need to create your own screening process for your own business and for what role they will be in. But I can share an example of what I did that got excellent results (amongst a bunch of horrible candidates that I was able to weed out quickly. When I was looking for someone to do admin and...

    Where and how to find good virtual assistant?

    I've found great people through Upwork and Onlinejobs.ph Often, an excellent screening process is required to weed out bad candidates and find a good fit for your company.

    Ecommerce and its Gurus: Does it work in 2019?

    So, I wouldn't normally comment on these "what's working now" sort of posts, but I can tell you really took the time to think and about and write your post, and you bring up a lot of good points. Others may search the forum - and they would be right - but I'll try to point you in the right...

    I've Read UNSCRIPTED!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    I bought the Audibook on Audible. My favorite part was probably the part where you lay out your investing strategy (paycheck pot, etc.) and how you invest. That's something I haven't heard about - when you've got money and you need to start making it work for you with taking acceptable risks...

    Ecommerce | Shopify/Amazon etc.

    Shopify is just an e-commerce platform - its a tool, nothing more. Amazon is a sales channel. Amazon has made many people very rich. Amazon is one of the most valuable companies on the planet. It's not going away any time soon. Food for thought.

    Major Quickbooks Price Increase. Alternatives?

    I recommend Xero as well. However, I don't have anywhere near the SKU count as you. Honestly, I think your tripping over nickels instead of focusing on the dollars.

    Why are we so vague about our businesses ?

    MINDSET 
    If you go to the summit and local meet ups, you'll find a lot more trust is developed and fostered by making real life, in-person friends. The forum is great, but I don't know how many people are lurking here - certainly there are tons of unregistered lurkers reading the forum. I don't know...

    My 2000th Post on TheFastlaneForum

    My comfort limits are the amount of capital I'm willing to risk. I'm risking much more capital and am looking at a time horizon of years (or decades) instead of month. Also - I've never taken outside money in my businesses. I'm asking for a significant investment in this business, which is new...
