    Is Tim Ferriss a fraud?

    HOT! 
    Here's some more facts for you: 1. In one of his books/blog posts he put up some numbers for a deadlift of his. Some clued up reader realised this would make him a world deadlifting champion. He soon backtracked and said it was a rack pull instead. As if an "expert" on fitness such as ferris...

    Is Tim Ferriss a fraud?

    HOT! 
    Another Tim Ferriss shill/stooge reviving old threads of the fake "guru" to publicise his latest guru crap for sale. Do you really think we're that dumb? Take that shit elsewhere.

    Is Tim Ferriss a fraud?

    HOT! 
    He's been caught out quite a few times over the years from what I can recall. Said he had a huge deadlift in one of his books or posts, someone pointed out that it would make him the national champion...he soon backtracked and said it was a rack pull from above the knee. Quite a few of these...

    From 0 To $240,000 Per Year PROFIT In 18 Months (Acquisition Entrepreneurship)

    GOLD! HOT! 
    Don't worry, I almost got sucked into the dropship bandwagon as well. I'm convinced the only people making money in that area are the scammy dropship course sellers, shopify and facebook.

    From 0 To $240,000 Per Year PROFIT In 18 Months (Acquisition Entrepreneurship)

    GOLD! HOT! 
    I've been following this thread from the start. Found it quite interesting but now it's turned into the OP looking for investors I wonder if everything at the start was just bait and now we're getting to the switch. Feeling really uneasy at this. Hope the people on here willing to throw money at...

    INTRO 
    Good post and you shouldn't have to defend keeping your cards close to your chest. People like Vairavan will pose no competition to you in the long run, but trust me they will give it a go anyway, pumping up your costs on PPC ads etc in the short term so why even indulge them. Pretty sure I...

    FFS mate OP isn't an idiot and isn't going to share his niche with you so you can replicate it, and he politely told you to piss off so just give it up ok?

    How I will escape 9-5 job to work for my self and later build a team.. (journey here)

    EXECUTION 
    He's disappeared, hopefully he decided not to continue with dropshipping. Zero value add. Only people getting rich off dropshipping are Shopify, Facebook and the bullshitters with their "I make £10,000 a day while in bed" courses.

    If at first you don't succeed...

    EXECUTION 
    Started having huge doubts about dropshipping. I just don't think it's really a sustainable business model. It's basically chasing the next hot product while hoping your FB ad goes viral and even if you beat the odds and it does it'll be short-lived. Checking out previous video ads on FB for...

    Got knocked off my stride last week or so. Not a great deal of progress has been made. Getting back into the swing of things now though. Dropshipping app I'm developing works, got Paypal Checkout working. However I still need to implement product variants functionality. My existing site has...

    How I will escape 9-5 job to work for my self and later build a team.. (journey here)

    EXECUTION 
    Got a mate who's got a dozen brick and mortar shops. He imports a load of crap from China and sells them in his shops under his own brand at ridiculous markups. He's making a killing. You can buy the same shit on aliexpress 1/5th the price. I should tell him buying shit cheap from China and...

    Python, it's truly a joy to code in.

    EXECUTION 
    Still rapid progress on the dropshipping multi-site system, even building split testing into the heart of it. Reckon I'll be done by next week. Am setting up PayPal Checkout which greatly simplifies the payment side of things for me.

    EXECUTION 
    Absolute nonsense, sorry. You're a assuming every customer is a perfect customer with perfect knowledge of where to get the lowest price. Most people I know haven't even heard of aliexpress. A lot of people just see something they like and want it now. They aren't going to search every nook and...

    EXECUTION 
    Progress on the dropshipping multi-store system I'm building from scratch is moving along much quicker than I thought. Most the meat is already there now on the landing and product page. Need to implement a simple cart solution and do the checkout/upsell pages. Does anyone know a good free/low...

    EXECUTION 
    Ecwid is basically a cheaper version of shopify. Has an option to embed their store into an existing site. TBH I wouldn't use it for proper dropshipping sites, was just a quick fix while I sort something more permanent out. I'm same boat as you, not looking at making millions just enough money...

    EXECUTION 
    Dam I've decided to sack wordpress/woocommerce off and go back to the drawing board. I'm just constantly fighting everything, wordpress, woocommerce, plugins, themes. All I want is a simple sequence: landing page -> product page -> checkout page -> upsell -> downsell. I don't need all the...

    How I will escape 9-5 job to work for my self and later build a team.. (journey here)

    EXECUTION 
    I've just started pivoting from affiliate to dropshipping and I've already 2 dropship sales the last 2 days from a crappy ecwid ajax widget inserted into an existing site getting 20 visitors a day with no paid advertising just a organic FB post. Yeah no doubt it'll be a load of work, trial and...

    EXECUTION 
    Had another dropship sale yesterday from the rubbish ecwid store widget. If I can get sales from that then I can only imagine the potential with a custom high conversion set up. Continuing to build a Wordpress + woocommerce system. So many plugins to configure + theme modification.

    Good news had my first dropship sale on the weekend from a store page on the companion site to my FB page. Am positive about the dropshiping microsites am still setting up.
