    Books that blew my mind (Like getting an MBA in less than a month)

    BOOKS 
    How would you categorize the information in those books? Like sales, execution, etc.?

    MARKETPLACE 
    I have a friend who is looking for a technical lead (CTO like role) for his startup. Paid in equity only. Any thoughts?

    Instagram Ad Marketplace

    HOT! SOCIAL MEDIA 
    Okay I get it. I'm excited to hear what kind of validation your go through, what kind of research you do, etc. Your sales pitch and strategy to influencers and advertisers. And how the development of the software platform goes. And if I may sideline the question, you said "we." Do you have a...

    Instagram Ad Marketplace

    HOT! SOCIAL MEDIA 
    What I'm imagining here is an advertiser will post a promotion request (with any collateral or details or whatever), and then instragrammers accept it, and then you facilitate money exchanges? If it's automated, how do you ensure that influencers follow through and actually post something, and...

    GloryDogs' Bootstrapping Diary

    EXECUTION 
    Why do you think the people who sell you something (like an iPhone) don't just sell it at the higher price that you do?

    Diary of Opening A New Business

    NOTABLE! 
    I agree with a lot of what you said. How to Start a Startup was very valuable and detailed and more in the muck. But this to me is a bit of a different view from somebody who pulled it together on a shoe string, stayed lean, found a boring business, didn't need VC money or to build a fancy...

    Just gave in my 2 weeks notice.

    HOT! 
    How did you identify and validate the need you went after? Was it related to your Big 4 job?

    I've Read The Millionaire Fastlane!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    I've read the book (which is what brought me to this forum). Loved the frameworks it laid out. Fantastic book. Really clarified a lot of things for me. Hasn't quite gotten me over the hump of taking action -- I'm still hung-up on the identifying a need portion. The one curiosity is how much you...

    Infopreneur

    Here's how I'd do it as someone who has bought info products. It's all about personal brand. And this takes time. Ugh. work. Start building up authority. Show me that you are an expert in that topic. Give away a lot of free (but vague) information and save the specific details, how-to...

    Feedback small biz app

    I think it's a decent idea. Here are some thoughts off the top of my head: It's like building a digital suggestion box (Suggestion Box isn't a bad name either, come to think of it) Allow users to post ANONYMOUS feedback. Why? Knowing my name is not attached to it makes it more likely I'll leave...

    Total Business Communication App

    Cool. How is it 10x better than any of the competitors? (Asana, trello, Basecamp, etc.)

    Total Business Communication App

    If you had to pick, what is the one thing this app does very very well? A solution that does everything kind of well will probably do no one thing very well. Doesn't sound very focused. And maybe pick a niche market to go after -- like Dan from the Foundation who made a lead management system...

    I have just published my new blog. Would love some FEEDBACK

    PUBLISHING 
    Here is some brief feedback: the overall vibe I get from you blog is that it could be written by a bunch of different people, like a Business Insider blog for meditation or something. What do I mean? Almost all of the posts are lists: "10 ways to..." "22 things that ..." which to me is more...

    Welcome Noah Kagan from AppSumo/SumoMe

    AMA 
    For the first customers in the first 48 hours, how do you target them and what is the sales process? Say I want to create a "The Next Great Project Management Software." 1. How do I identify whom I want to talk to? Do they need to be decision makers/have a budget? 2. Am I going for dollars in...

    Magic... A Nice Lesson in Market Validation

    EXECUTION 
    A big win would be in machine learning and automation. Or like Cha-Cha did it where you hire contractors to answer texts for 5c a piece. But I bet there's a lot of errors, people getting the wrong thing, bad customer service, etc...

    SAAS Startup, $100K+/mo, $1M+/valuation (ASK AWAY!)

    NOTABLE! SAAS / APPS EXECUTION 
    A little late to the party, but something I've wondered about the pre-selling phase: When trying to pre-sell, are you only speaking to decision makers? What do you do when the person who likes your product needs to kick it up to his/her boss for approval?
