    Putting in the Work: Bootstrapping a Physical Product/Ecommerce Business

    EXECUTION 
    This is my first thread that I've started in a long time. To the general public on this forum, you probably remember me as that one guy who invented Setsign, the device that told people how many sets you had in the gym. Unfortunately, this was a failure. I learned many things from this...

    Fight The Spam! Bring Forth The Poop!

    OFF-TOPIC 
    So I've been seeing this type of spam post pop up occasionally, and I have no idea what it links to, nor do I want to find out. It's the same link every time, written in Korean, from different accounts, and I think posting relatively the same time every day. I'm just wondering, don't we have an...

    Just Got My First Clients

    SIDE HUSTLE EXECUTION 
    Hey all. Been a bit since I've posted. If you don't know me, I'm a product developer/inventor. I'm currently working on a physical product for the automotive industry. Recently though, I have had a problem. See, as a young adult I seem to be very broke, and I need funds to keep bootstrapping...

    Idea for a Service Side Hustle

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    So I've been attempting to bootstrap building my product for some time now, but working a standard job and being a time prostitute is probably not the fastest option. I've come up with an idea that may be more efficient at generating capital while actively providing value to others. I'm...

    Our Generation's Great War... Climate Change?

    MINDSET 
    The actual greatest "war" of our generation hasn't fully started yet, but it's going to heavily involve Climate Change as the main driver. The world is going to get chaotic and we need to do our part to stop this or mitigate the damage. This isn't a literal war that will be happening of course...

    Idea for Meal Replacement/Nutrition Brand

    IDEA 
    So this weekend I was doing a bit of traveling with my family to the world capital of baseball, Cooperstown NY. This town is absolutely beautiful, and the history there is rich, but it has a problem. There's nothing for me to eat. This is a common issue for wherever we travel to. While my...

    What Do You Fight For?

    MINDSET 
    I had a weird dream recently in which I was back in a high school math class (definitely my worst nightmare), and someone asked me "What do you want to do when you get older?" I said something along the lines of "I want to improve the world wholly and completely. Invent new forms of clean...

    Rate These Ideas on Their Usefulness!

    IDEA 
    Hey all, after this realization that I need to get concepts out there immediately as soon as I come up with them, I want you to check out some sketches/designs for products in my book and tell me if they're useful at all or not. First up, this one seems like a bit of a gimmick, but I think it...

    Am I in The Desert?

    EXECUTION 
    If you haven't been following my journey you can do it here. Essentially 5 months ago I built a product called Setsign. This product allows people to display their sets and their availability in the gym to others. I'm trying to market this to gyms on a b2b level so gyms can have these up...

    What should a solid b2b website look like?

    MARKETING 
    After this massive thread that you can read here, I decided that I want to mainly market to gyms themselves. So, what do we think is the best way to go about getting lead generation? Talking to gym owners in person? Online ads? Email marketing? Linkedin? Also, what's a good example of a b2b...

    How Do You Deal With Deconstructive Criticism?

    MINDSET 
    Hey all. Recently I have put my product out there for the world to see, and for me to act, assess and adjust as @MJ DeMarco said in UNSCRIPTED. On the forum, I have gotten some good feedback from you guys, but on social media I have gotten some deconstructive criticism, even making me question...

    Prototype done. Pre-orders or straight to sales?

    MARKETING 
    Hey all. For the past few months, I have been working like hell at this product I have created. I originally started the concept in mid-April and now have finally crafted the ideal version of my product. It's fully working and I am producing it using the resin 3D printer setup that I bought in...

    Finally made something happen.

    EXECUTION 
    I'm going to break this off from my progress thread because it's been so long. So after a lot of research and time, I think I have created something that has large potential in the market. I'm pouring every hour I can into this to make it happen. Essentially, it's male hygiene products, but I...

    What are the best books/podcasts for developing hard skills?

    BOOKS MINDSET 
    The title speaks for itself. As I was working on the website for my company, I had a sudden realization hit me. I don't know squat. Sure, yes, I have a general blueprint/plan for what I want to do, and a solid mindset thanks to books by MJ and other self-development authors, but I don't really...

    (Issue Resolved)

    MINDSET 
    (Issue resolved) I had a lengthy talk with my parents and it went well. I'm staying in college as long as it benefits my goals. I think they see my perspective now which makes me happy. Honestly, I don't think my household is toxic at all, it's just my parents put a lot of pressure on me, and my...
