    Can a custom engineering business scale to fastlane, or is it just another job?

    IDEA SCALING FEEDBACK 
    I’m 23, working full-time as a mechanical engineer, and have been trying to start a business since I started working basically. I’m still very early in the process for this one, but I’d love to hear from people who have experience scaling service businesses. The business is called...

    Increasing Value but going against the commandment of TIME and SCALE?

    SCALING QUESTION 
    Thank you! I’m going to be honest about the 300 units, it took roughly 4 years. BUT I had no marketing, listing optimized maybe twice. I was working on a bunch of other things and never realized these were passively selling decently well. I know it’s not amazing but it proves theres a flicker of...

    SCALING QUESTION

    Increasing Value but going against the commandment of TIME and SCALE?

    SCALING QUESTION 
    I should have explained a bit better. So modern graphic cards are getting larger and heavier each generation. Slowly over time they sag inside the computer, this can end up bending connection pins and damaging the motherboard slot. My product is an adjustable support that prevents this sag...

    This is a very good point. Thank you for replying. I completely missed mentioning that it could indeed be a real health issue for some people. I wouldn’t want anyone ignoring that.

    How I Beat Anxiety

    MINDSET 
    Hi everyone, I just recently joined this forum and decided instead of just asking and taking that I will give when I can. I can only hope that my story is useful to someone; if not, that’s okay too. Before I begin, I would like to make clear that 1) I am not a doctor and can’t give actual...

    Increasing Value but going against the commandment of TIME and SCALE?

    SCALING QUESTION 
    After my introduction post, I decided to listen to unscripted. A lot of valuable information there, I learned my biggest issues holding me back right now are execution and shiny object syndrome. I don’t like making empty promises, actions and results are the only things that prove growth to me...

    It’s definitely a possibility and something I could do. My recent struggle has been with validating demand and deciding when it’s worth pivoting away from an idea or to keep pushing it. How would you validate this idea before investing into manufacturing? A more luxury style plate I feel would...

    I don’t have my own Shopify store, honestly I never really thought about when to make the move from Etsy/Tiktok to Shopify. I guess I’ve been waiting for the right product to do that.

    Thank you for the reply and your thought, it means a ton. Among the products I offer, the ones that sell the second best genuinely solve a problem. They are graphics card holders that prevent the GPU from sagging inside the PC. As GPU’s get bigger every generation the port is having a tougher...

    Hi! I design my products through Fusion360 which is a 3D modeling software. As for manufacturing I usually print my orders on the spot when I get them. But for my bestsellers I try to keep a decent amount of stock ready since I know they will sell. Shipping is handled through the platforms I...

    Hello everyone! My name is Ryden. I am a 22 year old that just recently graduated college as a mechanical engineer last year. In what is probably the greatest surprise to you all, I despise working 40 hours a week for a paycheck. Do I hate engineering? Hell no, I have always loved it and have...
