    What Are Your Most Painful Tasks Currently?

    Seems like focus is the biggest issue with us, including myself. I've been using sites like HabitRPG to gamify my life and what I want to achieve. I also limit or create restrictions for myself each year. I can only work towards 3 things in any given year. If I want to switch something out...

    What Are Your Most Painful Tasks Currently?

    I've got some time on my hands over the next week or so as classes become a bit more automated. I want to know what you're struggling with. More importantly, if you could wave a wand and solve one thing within your business or life, what would it be?

    I agree. I've never worked with someone else before and it drives me insane. Unfortunately, we are great friends so I have to tread lightly in how I handle this because I don't want to lose a friend over an idea.

    Quick Update: Received our second order (secured it so it doesn't get stolen) and focused on creating a few more designs before we launch. I really want to get our eCommerce site launched this week so we can begin taking orders and sell out of our initial inventory asap. Once we are launched...

    Kosta-B, I love it man! We are on the same wave length when it comes to investing. I cannot even sum up what you just said because I would dummy it up. Well said :)

    Traditional Investing or Invest In Another Company?

    EXECUTION 
    I've always been interested in investing, but I quickly learned how there are much better ways to increase your means and accounts. I've heard countless times you don't get rich by saving $1 by avoiding Starbucks but by increasing your income. So, would it make sense to invest my savings in cash...

    Quick Update: We received our first inventory of clothing and have built a massive following on Instagram. It seems as though social will be our main focus when it comes to marketing and keeping expenses low. The worst thing happened. We spent the last of our money on inventory which was then...

    EXECUTION 
    Sorry it took so long for my reply, for some reason the Alert and Notification system isn't working like it should be. @Laverdure - Your initial post containing your market research is incredibly helpful and has helped me make a mental shift as to the kind of product I could create. I could...

    Discussion Of Chapter 31 "The Commandment of Entry" and MLM Companies

    Good point :( My goal wouldn't be to milk them further but hopefully find a real solution to a problem they have. Perhaps just wishful thinking but something worth thinking about for a night lol.

    Discussion Of Chapter 31 "The Commandment of Entry" and MLM Companies

    EXECUTION 
    I don't want to think directly about their business but what opportunities are there for this group. Obviously the biggest would be to build their businesses for them but that's not going to happen lol. Could there be something else related to what is required of them that someone could help with.

    I finally got around to reading the book again so I can finish it and reread it while more focused and taking notes. In chapter 31 MJ talks about Network Marketing (MLM) and the low barrier to entry. He also states in order to succeed in this low barrier to entry "business" you must be...

    It is a learning experience and something we need to work through as entrepreneurs and come out on top. Keep fighting and working towards your goal man. We are going to get our asses kicked more times than one so get ready for a journey haha.

    @Envision - We are going to wait until we have proven sales and revenue before we jump all in and form the legal foundation of the company. It just doesn't make sense for us to pay for all of that right now.

    @Funky - This is all new to us so we just learned about a heat press not too long ago. We are chatting with a local company with no minimum orders that can produce high quality shirts for us. My partner is still on the fence about outsourcing the production so I am having to battle with that...

    Hey guys! Sorry I haven't posted here in a bit, I have been studying my a$$ off for my personal trainer cert. So we got our first design in, began printing and it was awesome! The quality of the print is perfect. Yet, we ran into a little problem: When we washed and dried the first batch...

    You bring up a very good point. Eventually, with thoughts of scaling and growth, we would need to grow our production. That would mean more machines, which are not cheap and more people to hire. What would you advise as far as finding some production for our shirts? I would really like to not...
