    Mindset - a case of perspective or rationale?

    MINDSET 
    Bit of a long waffle that may not make sense, awake for 48 hours and well overdue a nap! So, something I've been thinking about lately after reflecting on places I've been in the past, things I think about daily and what I see in others and after having a conversation with a person I met who...

    What's stopping you?

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    I feel like my problem with my latest venture is getting out there. First hurdle syndrome.. Web sales are new to me, so I'm trying to overcome how best to market, trying new things, strategy and general reach however am confident when I over come that things will pick up with a big amount of...

    I've Read The Millionaire Fastlane!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    I read the book on my tablet. Good thing is it makes it nice and accessible and I often hit random chapters for a re-read and reflection under changing circumstances. I find it helps to reflect in different situations and I take different levels of benefit away each time..

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

    MARKETING SOCIAL MEDIA AMA 
    Great read and happy to have found this thread now as have just started two accounts on ig.. mind me asking how slow is 'normal' growth at first? I'm finding it pretty slow, 2 follows and around 6 likes a post but then it is a very new page so not concerned. Just not sure how much to expect...

    SEO, when is it worth paying for?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Thanks for the responses, all real helpful! I'm using Woo Commerce at the moment; when you say duplicate content do you mean in terms of duplicate pricing and descriptions? That's one issue I've flagged and am working through at the moment. Am trying to diversify whilst having an element of...

    SEO, when is it worth paying for?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Thanks for response; I have had a search around but to be honest got a little lost at the best way forwards. Still having a read through, just thought I'd ask incase I'm missing something glaringly obvious, will keep on digging. I have indeed; it's by design. One business is a long-term process...

    SEO, when is it worth paying for?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Hey guys, So I've started a small e commerce store, with the intention of learning the ropes before my "main" business is up to speed and requires it. My question really is whether SEO worth paying for in the early days? Is it only worth it at a certain turnover point? Is it something that is...

    Transitioning out of the slowlane..

    SLOWLANE EXECUTION 
    So been busy again, trickling along and laying some more foundations.. Have decided that rather than have a fulfillment / outsourced warehousing solution eroding my margins; I have completed a 2 year deal on a factory. This opens up a wealth of options, mainly to have sufficient stock which I...

    Money can't buy happiness. Or can it?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I do believe money can buy components of happiness. Cars are my passion, I would classify having a murcielago as having some happiness; it partly hangs on what you treasure in life. For the most part; Money doesn't BUY happiness; it FACILITATES it.. There are still other factors; but with...

    The biggest lie that you believed for most of your life?

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    1) Experience countable in years is the only mechanism for success. What really frustrates me is just how widespread that lie is being spread. Its all I heard for the first few years of my career, amd through school. Go to university, get a degree with debt, work and when youre 35-50 you'll...

    the sky is not the limit...

    HOT! MINDSET 
    I once heard the saying "don't tell me the sky is the limit, when there is a flag on the moon."

    Transitioning out of the slowlane..

    SLOWLANE EXECUTION 
    Daily tasks over the last 7 days :) Enquire into several premises'. One as a storage facility owned by my retirement fund, one as a facility to operate from, leased. Offer forms received, final analysis started - I want to make sure that if I am going to commit $20k PA, I am at least going to...

    Transitioning out of the slowlane..

    SLOWLANE EXECUTION 
    Yeah very much so - I'm painfully aware that for this business to start some exponential growth that I will have to complete the transition, but I'm also aware that doing so too soon, will just mean that the luxury of hitting the ground running is removed. I know many will comment that it is...

    Transitioning out of the slowlane..

    SLOWLANE EXECUTION 
    Sure, wasn't as tricky or as big a deal as it sounds - I basically played the perception of value. I marketted my product on forums, and at an event. On the forums I was known for long enough to have a good rep when people asked even though I'd never sold anything there, and at the event I...

    Take A Look At Their Actions. Not Their Words

    PEOPLE 
    I think in a relationship, the key question at any point is 'why'. 'why do I want to talk to her?' 'why am I still talking to her' 'why am I texting her?' 'why is she responding that way?' 'why am I still pursuing this?' 'why do/don't I see a future?' I could go on. It sounds silly and...

    Transitioning out of the slowlane..

    SLOWLANE EXECUTION 
    Bit of a rollercoaster few days.. I've unfortunately broken up with my fiance which sucks. But she was making me unhappy; which resulted in me making her unhappy; avoiding lengthy phone calls, looking forward to having me time, biting my tongue.. It was a vicious cycle and ultimately I came to...

    My new boss just extended my probationary period!

    INTRO 
    I couldn't agree more with that in theory, BUT it depends on the situation. I perscribe fully to not putting off what can be done today, but I'm in a position where I'm paid well enough to fund my ambitions directly. I don't have the 7 figure i come that I aspire to, but packing in my 6 figure...

    My new boss just extended my probationary period!

    INTRO 
    Working on it :) Have a few ideas - just having to play the waiting game a little and cash up to go full throttle with them. I don't entirely hate my job but I hate the concept of doing it for another 10 years.. But having a general plan has made it infinitely more bearable.

    Where did I go wrong?? Lost a huge sale

    HOT! 
    There's nothing more I hate than 'I'll come back with firm details tomorrow' or 'it will cost xyz plus or minus.. That's usually enough to make me go elsewhere if it's not too much hassle to do so I like to know exactly what discussion we've had (You might have, did he though?), what the cost...
