    ROI website tools

    MARKETING 
    I am currently doing research on how to calculate ROI for a website that will generate revenue off of advertisements as well as e-commerce and digital downloads. Is Google Analytics sufficient, or what other tools are worth the price of integrating into the website? Since some of the revenue...

    How to go out of business

    A few years ago I had my car wheel bearing fixed at a Meineke down the street from my home. The repair came with a 1-yr. warranty. Just under 12-months later, it started making a noise again which is what it was doing prior to the repair. I took it back in to have it repaired under warranty...

    In a really weird place.

    MINDSET 
    Firstly, this post is more for me to clear my thoughts. For those that have read my previous posts you may already know a bit about my story. The good news is, I have a prototype product finally and a good contractor who can produce the results I am looking for, which is a major hurdle I've...

    50 cents lifestyle is an illusion

    I almost didn't want to post this, given what happened in a previous post. http://www.usatoday.com/story/life/people/2015/07/22/50-cent-says-flashy-lifestyle-illusion/30503943/ There's other articles out there, but in short he said he returns a lot of the items he shows on his twitter account...

    In defense of the slowlane

    SLOWLANE 
    I wanted this to be great progress thread, instead it's turned into frustration. I had a great idea, went to execute it and many people said I should "sell before I had a product". Now it's almost months later and I still have no product. The idea is still there but I've almost lost all...

    How to Stick With Good Habits Every Day

    MINDSET 
    I found this article interesting and follows MJ's method of putting change in a jar every day. Visual queues can be powerful to helping you develop good long term consistent habits because you can see your progress. http://jamesclear.com/paper-clips That's it. 120 paper clips. 120 sales calls...

    Good idea or not?

    IDEA 
    As some of you may know, I've already been working on something, but here is another idea that with proper execution can possibly be the next big lead gen. market. I've done a bit of research on this and there are a few companies out there doing it but it's more just some directories and the...

    Increase conversions with pictures of humans

    MARKETING 
    One of the major hurdles for online sales is trust. One way to overcome this is through the use of human pictures according to some research. https://vwo.com/blog/human-landing-page-increase-conversion-rate/?__s=euforzhs9qm42vmuyir6

    Multi million dollar idea comes to life

    IDEA 
    No, it's not mine, but it IS a place I like to go to work on my business. I get free wi-fi, lots of successful people around me and just all around good vibe. You haven't heard of it, yet. TopGolf. They just opened in Alpharetta, GA the past year or so. (The original idea was actually born in...

    No, Robots are not taking your job.

    HOT! 
    There's been a lot of talk about robots in the workplace recently. As an IT Engineer -- no robots are not taking over the workforce anytime soon. Before you sigh in relief, this could change on a dime. Robots are restricted to what we, as humans, can currently program. Think of it this way. If...

    Fastlane legal BS

    EXECUTION 
    I lied to you. This isn't the fastlane. This is the legal BS that comes with the fastlane. I recently, just out of sheer curiosity went to limos.com. I put in the details, what limo I wanted, etc... I got an email. I didn't want it. A few months later, I checked my spam mail -- limos.com was...

    Maximizing your time

    We are all given the same exact amount of time in the day. 24 hours. No more, no less, but if you can figure out how to get more done than anyone else in the day, congratulations you've just given yourself a huge advantage over every one else. Having a job means if I want to run a successful...

    Is this guy f*@%## serious?

    MINDSET 
    Just found this gem in my newsfeed. We've now been reduced in society to not only an endless supply of victims, but none of us really have any choices in life. Everything we do is outside of our control. Criminals have to steal. Cheaters have to cheat. It's all outside of our control and that's...

    Looking for advice for a slam dunk

    MINDSET 
    I've been in the IT industry for a loooooong time. I'm also a card carrying member of a popular sub-culture that's exploding right now. This is one of those once in a lifetime opportunities with new tech to integrate it into a popular subculture that I absolutely know has a HUGE need and it...

    What's really holding you back?

    MINDSET 
    J.O.B Jobs can make you comfortable, or they can motivate you, they can give you a small inkling of hope that one day, you can retire with a modest amount. This is true. One day, possibly, you can retire from that 9-5 and live in mediocre years no longer working. Put in 40+ years just like most...

    You're just lucky

    Just as an FYI to all of those that have made a decent amount of money here, you're just lucky little shits. All of that stuff you did? Lucky. In fact if you check out the amazon reviews of MJ's book...

    Disagree with some of the book

    I apologize if this is the wrong area as I didn't see a specific area to discuss the book. At least for me, what really stood out was the bashing of the business plan. I get the whole "charts and graphs" thing that people like to do which usually just ends up being worthless as the market takes...

    Question about venture capital

    Firstly this is not a thread asking for investors, but rather seeking advice about traveling down that road. I'm beginning to put the pieces together of my start up that fits all five qualifications in the fastlane, ironically since I thought of it before I ever picked up the book. I've already...
