    Congrats! I also just graduated. I majored in finance and minored in accounting and project/operations management. My short-term plan is to get more customers for my online service business so that my profit doubles from where it is currently. I was able to grow it enough while in college that...

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    It sounds like writing might be a good place for you to start since you have some special experience in that area and seem to enjoy doing it. I'm not sure how difficult it is to get traction on Fiverr or Upwork, but offering a writing service with the specializing of story-telling or something...

    Is calling necessary for a web developer?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Yes, pretty much everyone will want to talk with you on the phone. Talking on the phone will also increase trust if you're doing it right. Is there a reason you want to avoid doing phone calls? Most business owners are bombarded with emails trying to sell services.

    Colleges and universities in my city shut down yesterday. We have no cases in our city or region (I'm located in the U.S.). My university was canceled for the week and classes are moved online for the entire rest of the semester.

    Why are you vegetarian/ vegan?

    HEALTH 
    I'm not vegetarian or vegan, but I've found myself getting closer and closer to that point. For some reason, meat has been starting to gross me out more and more. Finding a tough bit in my food or something like that has always turned me off. Recently I've been doing a lot of cooking. I've...

    How to create a team and how much pay them

    PEOPLE 
    You could offer them a small stake in the company, maybe. Even if it's 5% + "promised" increased pay in the future. That'll encourage them to work for the good of the company, rather than rushing through their 10 articles to get the highest possible hourly rate.

    Bootstrapping, initial capital-building failed! What now?

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    Do you have a plan to diversify your risk by bringing in traffic from places other than Facebook? Let's say Facebook decides to delete your page for some reason. How would this scenario affect your business?

    HOT! MARKETING 
    I see what you mean. It's actually not a term at all. It is solely referring to a company/website and has no other meaning outside of that. So let's say I have two keywords: livestock transportation services - 110/mo livestock transportation - 1300/mo If my page is titled "Livestock...

    HOT! MARKETING 
    What would this achieve though? People searching "Livestock Network" are solely searching for a popular website called livestocknetwork.com, as I mentioned before. Let's say I am able to rank #1 for "Livestock Network", why would click my link? They don't want my website, they want...

    Isn't that what I'm am doing already? I have these keywords in the titles and throughout the page in various different forms (livestock transporter, livestock hauler, etc.). Sorry if I'm misunderstanding. As mentioned in the previous post the data is coming from Keywords Everywhere. Can't...

    HOT! MARKETING 
    The idea was to get the page showing up for searches such as: "livestock haulers" - 720/mo "livestock transportation" - 1300/mo "cattle transportation" - 480/mo "cattle hauling" - 1000/mo "goat transport" - 320/mo (data from keywords everywhere) The goal would be for the page to capture a lot...

    HOT! MARKETING 
    Is it bad to reuse sections on multiple pages? I made this landing page called "Livestock Transportation Services" (Link) I was going to duplicate the page and swap out "livestock" for certain types of livestock, therefore creating several pages with similar content, but different keywords...

    When Do You Take a Break?

    I wasn't really asking these questions for advice for myself. More just to hear about how people give themselves breaks. I had a quantifiable goal/deadline which I wanted to complete by Jan 13th, 2020. I just completed it today. But to me, this doesn't mean I should stop working until the 13th...

    When Do You Take a Break?

    I'm in the final stretch collecting data for my current business idea. This project has required me to do over 18,000 Google searches by hand to collect information (data could not be accurately scraped with a bot). This work is terribly mind-dumbing, but it's got me wondering when I should give...
