    Opinions wanted: After talking to my new friends @oldkevx & @JonnyC, I've got a new plan for acquiring more leads. Most of our work is due to referrals, so why not leverage the power of the referral? Check out this page: http://www.sk2buildingsolutions.com/free-vacation.html The summary is...

    TED Talks: Post your favorite videos

    Great perspective on stress and how stress may only be bad for you if you believe that it is bad for you. It speaks a lot about mindset. This makes sense to me, I believe stress is an exercise of sorts. If I look back on every significantly stressful event, I believe I've grown...

    You bet, that's in the works. I'm playing with copy, and there is a strategic delay in place. Hard to explain online. It'll happen soon! Thanks for your time and input @throttleforward!

    Great thread, lots of good info here! Depression is a bitch (although I've never been depressed I've dealt with family who has). I consider myself lucky. I've always been a knee-jerk reaction kind of guy, but I find I'm getting better at stepping back and analyzing situations before I jump in...

    Yes sir we have! I recently purchased a gopro hero 4 silver for this type of filming. I'm hoping the video production guy we are meeting with will also be able to show us some options. This kind of video would be great with our guys standing up walls and trusses. Awesome!

    I'm A/B testing a Facebook like bar from www.hellobar.com to see if we can boost our Facebook likes. We've been getting decent leads via Facebook, seems like a natural place to start. Next on the block is learning about Facebook ads.

    Thanks @throttleforward! Combination of the two I'd say. Custom 'modular' homes. We have very little competition in the market. Lots of 'modular' builders but very very few do a full turnkey job like we do. Choosing us leads to an easier experience for the client. That's what we push. I love...

    Quick update. What a kickass community. I had a 55 minute Skype chat with @oldkevx (thanks very much Kevin!) about marketing in general and websites. He's a smart guy with a lot of experience. He didn't have to help, but he did, because he wants to see others do well. He's pumping out value...

    Yeah that hurts but I expected it! That's why we're here. Thanks for your input MJ. I've been in touch with a few members here that have a much better grasp on marketing and I'm anxious to learn. We'll improve it. Does anyone have any suggestions or sample websites that they'd recommend?
