    Official 2014 Beer & Pancakes Topic Thread

    MEETUPS 
    Please use this thread to tell us what you plan on presenting at Beer & Pancakes. We are shooting for unique presentations, so if someone is already covering a topic you'll have to choose a new one. If you're coming to B&P, you absolutely MUST present; no excuses. Plan for a 20 minute...

    Sunday 8PM EST B&P 2014 Tickets

    Your B&P ticket covers Lunches and Dinner for Friday and Saturday, and the Hotel offers continental breakfast. Last year I spent around $700-800 after Flights, Hotel room, B&P Ticket, and booze. It was well worth it, and I'm sure you can get away with spending less. Hope that helps.

    Why should one join the Fastlane Insiders?

    HOT! 
    There's multiple reasons, but as Z said, the more serious crowd hangs in there. Honestly, $5.99 is 2 Starbucks mochas. Try it, if you don't like it you almost have nothing to lose. Just the other day some advice and an idea was posted, which could potentially make me $10k or even more.

    IDEA 
    The Authorizations tend to drop off after a month...so if you aren't ready to ship in a month, no point in even authorizing the credit card.

    MEETUPS 
    It really is a tight-nit group with a limited time for presentations. I would make sure that you monitor the forum so you can get in on it early. That being said, there were a few last year who couldn't end up going, and sold their tickets. One thing I learned from last year's B&P, is that...

    I'm Switching Lanes

    HOT! 
    I'm moving over from the Slowlane to the Fastlane; I can see the road now and I'm driving it. The feeling is amazing, I've been on Cloud 9 for the last two days. I've got a product that's selling well, and that people love. My advertising efforts are paying off (I've spent thousands testing)...

    The most stupid gadget i've seen.

    FUNNY 
    This thread goes to show you that, personally, we usually have no idea what will sell or won't sell. You may think you have a good idea, and it's a dud. Or, you dismiss a product, saying who will buy that, when in reality the market loves it. Let the market speak. Remove your personal bias, and...

    Minimalist lifestyle?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    This thread is a good read, some very valid points from a few people who have clearly "made it," with differing opinions. For me, I used to be all about stuff. But now I just can't stand to have shit around I don't use. To me it just feels like a waste. I do want some nice things, such as a...

    Fastest hosting companies? Anyone use bluehost? Which one do you use?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    No, they both are awful. Liquid Web or Beyond Hosting. I have used both, and they both have excellent customer service. I am with Beyond Hosting right now. Liquid Web has 24/7 Phone and email support, Beyond Hosting only has 24/7 email support. Other than that, they're basically the same. I...

    IDEA 
    If you can execute your design and deliver on your promises, I see you doing very well with these. Glad to be a part of the thread. Can't wait to see the first real prototype. Unfortunately, I can't buy these online, because I have to see the sunglasses on me before I buy. Can you offer free...

    One thing, that I haven't seen mentioned in this thread, is that you know how to market products and services. When you start your own business, this will be HUGE for you.

    Mark Cuban Made Shark Tank Change its Contracts

    On a serious note, I really respect Mark Cuban, and think he's a good person. He doesn't deserve the bad press/hate he gets. His books are a good, quick read as well.

    Hit by Penguin Update - Need Recovery Help

    MARKETING 
    Diversify. Utilize paid traffic. Get some sales coming in ASAP so you can pay for the SEO mistakes. First, open Google Webmaster Tools and see if any manual penalties have been applied. If so, good freaking luck with that. I just killed a site I was experimenting with after a manual penalty...

    Holy crap, thanks. I'm new at direct marketing, and was wondering if you could point me in the right direction regarding dog products. Is there a particular traffic source you would start using, or is it just guess and check and spend? My demo is 30+ Women, in the US, moderate income, with one...
