    Digital Marketing Agency, the new Podcasting?

    HOT! MARKETING 
    Just went through exact scenario a couple of days ago, I posted on a facebook copywriting group looking to hire a technical copywriter. BIG MISTAKE. The next morning I found my email flooded by "experts". So far, I've got 34 prospects but honestly, the competition is crap. Most of the guys are...

    Make $1,000 in 30 Days as a new entrepreneur

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    I think this was intended as a hypothetical question. So assuming you have NO skills, NO friends. Here's what I'd do: 1.contact some business owners, top quality freelancers etc 2.Ask them if they needed help with anything at all. While you're searching for people to help, join groups and...

    Firing brother and manager over email/text

    PEOPLE 
    After reading the other posts I realise that I spoke a bit too hastily. I simply pointed out how I would have handled it. I have always believed that no matter the situation you always do the right thing. But Honestly, your situation is unique to you and I don't know enough about it to provide...

    Plant-Based Opportunities / Vegan Business Opportunities

    HOT! 
    This reminds me. In India, a massive portion of our diet consists of vegetables and half our population does not any meat at all(dairy's cool though). Now when I was visiting New York, I remember really hating your veg dishes. And the difference in quality between the vegan dishes and the rest...

    Firing brother and manager over email/text

    PEOPLE 
    Sorry, disagree with you on this one. It doesn't matter if he's your brother or just some employee you owe it to them to treat them nicely. You seem to be trying to avoid dealing with them by talking on the phone but he's your brother. You're going to see each other later and he'll remember...

    24 y/o Copywriter, Lost AF

    Wow! Your post rings too true too home. I got started with upwork as a way to make some quick cash after reading @Sinisterlex's/ post on freelancing. But then unlike you, I failed miserably(In my first year on upwork I made less than $100 and that's with geniuine effort) Then after college...

    My opinion of the Amazon Marketplace

    NOTABLE! 
    Not sure if this is what you're talking about, but Lebron and his trainer just launched a company called ladder fitness. Now I knew Lebron was a great marketer( you don't make 800M without know how to get endorsements), but the branding on their product honestly blew me away. Just some context...

    Everything I Learned From Blogging $0 to $15k/month

    EXECUTION 
    Hey Jon, How important do you think picking the right niche was in your long-term success? My clients often tell me that they want to invest in creating a blog but I usually advise against it if there is a lot of competition in their industry. Do you think a blog can succeed in a crowded...

    Idea Extraction SUPER SIMPLIFIED

    IDEA 
    This. Those guys are super-underrated. I have re-watched old episodes multiple times. Always nuggets to be found. Posting the examples here should help others as well. But if you still have any questions that you don't want to discuss publicly feel free to PM and I'll try my best to solve...

    Instagram Management: Cold Call my way to 100 clients

    SOCIAL MEDIA EXECUTION 
    Have you considered changing your approach and cold-emailing the marketing manager first? I don't know much about marketing to Instagram but maybe that's just the process most businesses are comfortable with. Also, would a page with a dedicated marketing manager really need someone to manage...

    What are people NOT talking about anymore?

    HOT! 
    OUCH!! This reminds me of a conversation I used to have with my parents where I justified not wanting to go to college because I was gonna build the next Billion(Not million) dollar app. I had no problem to solve. No clue about the real world. Just that I wanted to build the next snapchat...

    Idea Extraction SUPER SIMPLIFIED

    IDEA 
    I've had a lot of success with sending extremely specific cold emails to prospects. A typical email would have 1. An inside joke or two, to keep things light. 2. Some advice on how I can help them 3. A simple yes/ no CTA I usually get a reply rate of around 60-80%. Being a freelancer, I can...

    Yet Another Productivity System

    MINDSET 
    Yeah, even I used to have the same issue. When I first joined the forum(i think back in 2014). My yearly goal was to retire a millionaire.(how wrong I was) But you don't become a millionaire immediately, you need to first earn $1, then $10,000 and so on. Breaking down my yearly goals not only...

    Yet Another Productivity System

    MINDSET 
    This forum has given me a lottttt of value over the years, and this is my attempt at paying it forward. If this post is useful to just one person I'll be really happy. I've seen a couple of successful fastlaners openly discuss their processes to be hyper-productive and becoming efficiency...

    The single most important entrepreneurial lesson: People buy emotions.

    It's not just taxi drivers. Almost 90% of the world wants their solutions laid out to them in exact actionable steps. For every post someone posts about how they achieved the Fastlane. There are ten from people asking for instructions and business ideas. I guess it's because we have always...

    How do I inspire my son to follow the fastlane?

    I agree with @GoGetter24 and @garyfrits. Going Fastlane is not easy, HE has to want it more than anything else. I am probably not the best example because I am have not yet reached my Fastlane destination but the road to it is pretty crappy. I spend 12 hours a day at my job and my weekends are...
