    First time importer

    EXECUTION 
    Found a product, found a supplier with good prices, communication and sample. Paid a 30% deposit for 200 units via Alibaba Trade Assurance. Supplier told me that I should pay 100% upfront as Trade Assurance holds the money until goods are shipped. I doubled checked this and its as not the case...

    I want to live X but how's the internet speed?

    The problem in the UK is the 'last mile', we are bottled necked with our speeds currently because the last bit of cable running from the cabinet is either copper or coxial and very few residential addresses have fibre to premises. Top speeds here are around 200Mbs, having said that I am on 70Mbs...

    Instagram Marketing ($100K+ profit, 4M followers)

    MARKETING SOCIAL MEDIA AMA

Looking at my most recent account I created yesterday I have 34 followers and manually going through them I can see at least 30 are just trying to sell something. On my Facebook...

    Am I getting scammed?! Alibaba (Overseas Importing Payment Options)

    NOTABLE! SOURCING 
    I could not find a way to pay over any other method, I couldn't get WU to work it wouldn't let me select USD as receiving currency. Me wanting to use a credit card was not for protection but a way to fund my first order.

    I have just ordered a sample from a supplier, they wanted the money in USD. I had to do a T/T which cost me £40 in fees, pain in the arse.

    Paying Suppliers from Credit

    Is there a service I can use to send money to China suppliers that comes off my credit card? This particular supplier does not use Paypal. I am interested in a product but I don't have the money in my checking account but I do have a credit card.

    Manufacturing question

    No experience in manufacturing but I have an idea for a product that doesn't exist. It’s not ground breaking and could easily be copied but I do believe there is a gap in the market. I think the market is validated already because I have found lots of DIY solutions online but no one is selling...

    JimD. I dont know a lot about social media but have dabbled in twitter. Is the best way to gain followers in Twitter/Instagram to follow and unfollow which is what I was doing manually on twitter. If so I guess you're limited on your daily followings depending on the algorithm of the social...

    Why do you want to code? To get a job as a coder? It seems like you have run out of idea/creativity and settled for the idea that learning to code will bring you wealth. Code for a reason, do it for your own software/website business and you will be motivated to get your project finished, you...

    Hello! 18 Y/O from London :)

    INTRO 
    First of all read the book and others. (look in the book forum for ideaS) I would take your A levels seriously and get a degree. Not because you need a degree to succeed but you can fall back on it if you need to get a job. The uni life style is a life experience as well. Work on a business on...

    Financing a Car Has Put Me in More Debt Than I Ever Thought

    You have learned a valuable lesson about spending money with your emotion. A good rule is to try and delay any big buying decisions and not feel pressurised into having to make a quick decision. I have lost lots of money spending with emotion, it’s very easy to convince yourself as a consumer...

    What did you do in 2015?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    2015 was the year where I thought to myself ‘There must be more to life’. Fed up of going to work in the same office day after day, aspirations of being financially free so I can see the world. In 2015 I discovered The Fastlane book and other similar books. While I am not financially free yet I...

    I have just launched a new website, got quite a few hits in the first couple of weeks mainly from social referrals. No organic traffic yet. Now from the data gathered I can see that the UK is my main geo market with 40% of visitors, however the remaining 60% is spread out across the world with...

    The tor browser its self is not illegal, the technology allows the user to be anonymous because of the random way the packets move from node to node. I used it once but I am not that exciting and didn't have any dodgy to look at! I do use a VPN though.
