    How do I get started with copywriting?

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    Screw the books. You don't need them. I never read a copywriting book that really taught me something. At best it told me the name of things I was going to discover years later on my own. Because you can't be taught copy, you can only learn it. Do this instead. Decide what you want to sell...

    Should I just go all in on Facebook Ads?

    MARKETING 
    It's always hard to give feedback in cases like this without sounding like you're just trying to be an axehole. But here it goes. The tl;dr is: Stop wasting money, you have no idea what you're doing, and you don't have the capital to make paid traffic work right now. Find a marketing channel...

    Is viral bad press good for sales?

    MARKETING 
    Yes. This is a single product in a huge store that most people won't even know. So the exposure it would normally have is microscopic. But by virality, it is spreading to thousands of people in their target market.

    Need help picking red pill or blue pill. Am I adding any value compared to the competition? (demo)

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Make sales. If you make sales, you'll figure the rest out. If you don't, you'll move on. Identify your value add. Is it the customization? Do they care? I don't know. You don't know. Other users here don't know. Only the market knows. So make up your offer and go for it. You're just...

    Dealing with a mans greatest distraction.

    Sure, everybody says that. So they become boring losers to get rich, and end up rich boring losers. Hey, you may be the exception. Maybe you make cash and then become fun. But this is what I have seen in the real world, having met many of such rich losers. Rich people who are fun to hang...

    In case of emergency, buy red lipsticks.

    INVESTING 
    Not sure if the answer has been given in this thread (have only read the OP). But. The reason is that women started using more video conferencing tools and therefore seeing themselves on camera more. This makes them more self-conscious about their appearance because a) they see their own image...

    What Is So Hard About Entrepreneurship?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    What is hard about entrepreneurship is the risk. Most people just can't live with the uncertainty. The actual stuff you do is not hard. What's hard is that it's a wager. People who think that stuff like hiring and managing is hard... have never done anything that is actually "hard" physically...

    Leverage - An Army Of Robots to Do Your Bidding

    MINDSET 
    I'm confused. Capital provides leverage? This is the "prophetic" observation that went viral in "startup twitter"? No wonder most startups fail. I swear, every time I get curious and come back to this board... > "business" skills (even though business isn't a skill) It is, and it's the...

    Great Marketing: Embellishment or Manipulation?

    MARKETING MINDSET 
    All communication is manipulation. All communication is manipulation. What you really mean is when it becomes lies. And the answer is that the lawyers draw the line, we merely paint at the edge of it. It depends. What do you mean by successful? What do you mean by manipulation? Is Apple's...

    First minute, it mentions the Marshmallow Experiment. Immediately closed the window. Now my day is ruined. I will just link this here:

    So why can't China sell direct and take out the middleman (us)?

    I started typing an answer, but I gave up because I can't make it not offensive. This is all I have:

    I've designed an innovative rhythm guitar course which solves a problem, but it doesn't sell as I expected

    I have three simple points. You have a specific solution to a specific problem, and that's good. But who is the market? Who has this specific problem? You don't seem to have identified who they are. Identify the specific segment you're selling to. Your sales messaging is confused. You're not...

    PR Suicide and You! Don't be this a**hole!

    SOCIAL MEDIA 
    This is what happens when you mix ego and business. But let's make it useful by making an important observation: If you are outraged about this, you're making the same mistake. Don't get emotionally involved in other people's business. Because if you do that, you won't be able to think...

    Should I accept or reject this "partnership"?

    All the stuff highlighted above are red flags dancing in red tutus on a red stage in a red building on Mars. My advice would be to negotiate a higher salary instead and milk the cash cow until the inevitable implosion.

    Will we see an actual war with China?

    HOT! OFF-TOPIC 
    The geopolitics in this thread get wackier with each page. Fantastic. We are now in an alternate reality in which Western Europe is a dystopia, the USA is about to go on a rampage against everyone because nuclear holocausts raise the GDP, and Putin gets himself wrecked by NATO to save his...

    Will we see an actual war with China?

    HOT! OFF-TOPIC 
    This thread is absolutely bizarre. Taking internal Chinese propaganda at face value? Taking any media reporting as if it was speaking to actual intentions of nation-states? Are you guys taking the piss?

    Professional/Branded Ads vs. Home Baked

    MARKETING 
    Me smells overthinking. Caveman brain no happy. They veggie people. Write like veggy people is brand. Video of veggies like grandma is brand. Fancy graphicky thingy is not brand. They local business. What else need? Super Fruitbowl Ad? How smart man know? Smart man know assumption danger? Bias...

    How To Market and Product Launch/Research On Reddit?

    HOT! RANT 
    The salt in this thread is unreal. If you all get so upset because you get some flak when you go spamming a subreddit, what are you going to do when you meet a real shark who wants to eat your dinner? Business isn't for crybabies. Reddit is great for marketing. But you need to know how to do...
