    60% LTV or 100% Cash

    REAL ESTATE 
    Would you be able to sleep well at night with a 40% cushion? 20%? 0%? Would you prefer to have no debt?

    60% LTV or 100% Cash

    REAL ESTATE 
    There are entirely too many variables for anyone here to give you an answer. We can help you consider different options, but asking what you should do “to be fastlane” isn’t how it works. My response to every question above is, “it depends on what makes you comfortable.” Please read this...

    How to value a website for sale?

    INTRO 
    I hope you eventually share how much you sell for and what you did to get that price. It will be a great case study for others. There are always outliers. I honestly hope you prove us wrong.

    How to value a website for sale?

    INTRO 
    You might be right. However, you have to find someone who also thinks it is worth more AND is willing to spend that much. You might find a newbie on Flippa willing to buy it for more than it is worth. If I think it is worth more, but the market disagrees, then why would I pay more? That would...

    AMA: Affiliate Marketing

    HOT! MARKETING 
    I’m not in PF, but still in a niche that will be hard to rank for typical reviews for the main products. They are a dime a dozen. This helps a lot. Thanks. I’m going to focus on building the overall information section (“getting started”) and then dive into reviews for some less popular...

    AMA: Affiliate Marketing

    HOT! MARKETING 
    A new site I am working on is following this advice. I am actually stealing a bit of your funnel strategy so thanks. My competitors are going for sales and they crank out tons of content. I’m leaning toward fewer articles and focusing on quality help. It may be the wrong approach, but we shall...

    Hello from Boston! I did everything "right" and trapped myself in the slowlane. BUT...

    SLOWLANE INTRO 
    Biomedical Research is filled with entrepreneurs. Don’t lots of university faculty/PIs turn their research into patents or companies? I’d find an entrepreneurial PI and latch on to them so you can learn how they do it. Learn how to turn research into a product and spin off a company...

    Building A Business To Fund My Dream Of Playing Pro Golf

    EXECUTION 
    You are wrong. Some people like learning from someone a few steps ahead of them. If you really explain something well then you can teach...and get paid for it. Plus you can take people on your journey and share your struggles with them. It makes you more relatable than Tiger or Phil. If...

    Building A Business To Fund My Dream Of Playing Pro Golf

    EXECUTION 
    Can you teach people golf skills online? Maybe film your practice sessions and talk through what you are doing. Then turn that into a course or paid membership site. Serious hobbyists spend lots of money. Then you are working and practicing at the same time. 2 birds, 1 stone. Also, you are...

    Stuck deciding between multiple business ideas

    GOLD! 
    Wow. If you wrote all of the articles that have your by-line then you are an epic writer. Nice work and congrats. It is interesting to see that you feel like the finance space still has a lot of openings. That is where there is money to be made “blogging” but the competition is fierce. We’re...

    Need help with ideas for product to produce

    IDEA 
    Bike racks. Bike shelters. You’d probably need the ability to galvanize. We can’t find a double-stacker bike rack that is sturdy, safe, and easy to use. They all have something that doesn’t quite work. Or develop a modular line of your custom shelters. They would be cheaper and “off the...

    Lex DeVille's: Guru Cults Exposed: The Tactics "Experts" Use To Pull You In & Suck You Dry

    GOLD! MARKETING 
    This thread is depressing. I was starting to feel slimy for running a website that sells workbooks and other “info products” to help people advance in their career or to make their job easier. This quote from MJ helped immensely. I’ve had to issue refunds for a software plugin due to...

    Fake It Until You Make It - Where Is The Integrity Line?

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    My side gig is a website that I run alone. I’ve hired some writers in the past, but otherwise it is just me. However, I don’t want the site to be a personal brand. This could be helping or hurting the business. Who knows, but that isn’t the point of this post. When I write on the site I...

    Anyone here who donates part of their earnings to charities?

    I noticed this in the shower this morning... Edit: sorry for the crappy quality...I just gave myself a headache.

    Anyone here who donates part of their earnings to charities?

    When I started my website, I made a pact with myself to donate 25% of my year-end distribution to charity spread among 5 charities important to me, but irrelevant to the business. At first it was very small sums, but it has grown to the point that I get personal hand written thank you notes...
