    MARKETING 
    I did the same experiment last year with my product - found the same thing. I ended up doing an adjusted ACOG spreadsheet looking at pure organic sales vs advertised sales as a function of PPC in Amazon. I found total sales decreased, but organic sales increased (as expected) when I turned off...

    Never been good with money..like ever!

    Not at all. It is all about value of return on the money you do have. Let's say your loan interest rate is 5% - the question you should ask yourself is if the money you put into your student loans can give a higher ROI per year than 5%. If the answer is yes, then the smart move would be to...

    How To Prevent Clients From STEALING My Workers?

    PEOPLE 
    Create a working environment that any other company can’t compete with. Hire people who are in line with the values of your company and who find the work rewarding and fulfilling - people will leave companies because of leadership and culture, but they will also take less salary and pay because...

    PSA to Ecommerce Business Owners Selling on Amazon

    I've been doing a bit of research lately into some strategies to reduce Amazon cannibalizing ecommerce sales and stumbled on some really interesting information I was not aware of. Since the beginning of time, Amazon included a price parity clause in their seller ToS that stated that...

    Why Amazon Sucks: The Master Thread

    Amazon social proof is a powerful thing. Funnily enough, I recently launched my website and started driving PPC via adwords and facebook. I am getting a fair amount of impressions & views through to my site, but the conversion rate is far lower than I expected it to be. Flip over to looking at...

    The HyperDoor: Automatic Sliding Door Opener

    First thing that comes to mind is to pair this type of device with a suite of hardware products tailored to dogs. Get people to buy into the ecosystem and increase the lifetime value per customer. You could create a collar which could be RFID based that enables the use of these devices (food...

    An update on the last 2 years - A return to a corporate startup to do some of the best work of my life.

    What have I been up to the last 2 years? The last 2 years has been a period of self establishment (student loan, debt, moving out into my own place, etc) and self-understanding in how I really want to spend my time and what kind of work I truly want to do and be a part of. I’ve spent many days...

    HOT! SLOWLANE 
    28yr @ ~300k/years as a lead engineer in the Silicon Valley. Fortunately, it is in a very fascinating field where I’m growing and learning a ton on someone else’s dime - doesn’t stop my business from running in the back either.
