    Idea for a tourism/retreat business (does not exist but I'd be a customer if it did)

    IDEA 
    I've written the below in a way that sounds like an advert because the idea is best explained like that. I want to reiterate, as far as I'm aware, this does not exist. I came up with the idea after a meditation retreat that I thought would have been a better experience had they included some...

    Using Public Relations to Raise Funds or Sell Your Business...

    IDEA 
    After spending some time learning about the different stages a company goes through during an investment cycle, the thought occurred to me, could you create a kind of blueprint for a public relations strategy that supports businesses during each stage of the cycle. For example, a startup...

    Perry Marshall's Espresso Machine Principle

    MARKETING 
    I recently read Perry Marshall's book 'Detox, Declutter, Dominate: How to Excel by Elimination' and thought it was pretty good. In short, it's about focussing your time and energy on the small percentage of things you do that yield the highest return. It's very short and takes about an hour to...

    Why would a business voluntarily buy carbon offsets?

    QUESTION 
    Personally I believe carbon accounting and purchasing offsets while reducing CO2 emissions is the responsible thing for businesses to do. But my question is, why would a company spend money on these technologies aside from ethical reasons? What are the financial and commercial arguments to be...

    Kitchen Porter Staffing Agency (UK)

    IDEA 
    I've been working in a restaurant in London since the beginning of the year and one of the biggest pain points I see for the owners and senior management is how unreliable the kitchen porters are. Sometimes they don't show up and we have no idea why, sometimes they cancel 30 minutes before a...

    Recruitment Agencies; an underserved niche?

    MARKETING 
    It dawned on me the other day just how little mention recruitment agencies seem to get online, especially in forums like this where business owner/operators (many of whom sell services) discuss and talk about their niche specialization. Have I somehow been blind to conversations around...

    What to put for 'Clients Who Trust Us' before you have clients...

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    Just a quick question to the forum for anyone who's dealt with this previously. I'm in the process of building a landing page and am following a pretty standard format that I've put together by looking at competitors' websites. One of the sections that they all feature shows a list of around 4...

    When niching down, how narrow is too narrow?

    MARKETING 
    First off, it seems like the prevailing wisdom today is that service-based businesses must choose a niche and serve them as a specialist in that space. I'm of the mind that this does make sense. Do you agree; yes, no? If not, why? If you do think that niching down should be a principle of...

    Are there agencies that help professional coaches build the online part of their business?

    IDEA MARKETING WEB DESIGN 
    I've been looking to see if there are agencies that build out the whole digital side of a professional coaching practice. From working with the coach to create a concept, validating it, filming and editing the material (for an online course or mobile app), launching the program, marketing...

    Ways to reward yourself for meeting goals.

    MINDSET 
    Working on your business by yourself can be a pretty lonely experience unless you take measures to counteract its solo nature. Because you have no manager per se, I think it's important to reward yourself for meeting certain goals or markers in your plan and in doing so build a positive...

    Video eLearning Agency

    Hi everyone, It dawned on me that the difference in quality between the courses of Masterclass.com, Udemy, and Skillshare, etc is huge and must surely be one of the main drivers in a programmes popularity. Teaching skills in this way has giant earning potential so it isn't hard to see why so...

    Should I become a partner?

    I've been asked if I want to buy a third of the business I currently work for. I joined shortly after the company was started and there are just 3 of us at the moment working on it full time. If I buy in, it would be an even third equity owned per partner. I'd take the same pay as I currently do...
