    Does Anyone Have Experience Trademarking?

    IDEA 
    Shoutouts to @inputchip and @BrightAhead for the kind offer to help out. I'll most likely ping you guys myself. I'm in the process of trademarking my logos and slogan. Surprisingly USPTO has a lot of resources. They just launched a weekly webinar series on this whole topic. It's ongoing...

    How to Build and Grow a Newsletter as a Business Model

    GOLD! HOT! PUBLISHING 
    Our software is catering to college students. I'm looking at creating a newsletter for them to help get the word out. The attention span of college students are totally shot so I was thinking about this. I don't know how many of them will actually read newsletter? If so, how long will they...

    How to Build and Grow a Newsletter as a Business Model

    GOLD! HOT! PUBLISHING 
    I'm only on page 2 of the thread so excuse me if this has been mentioned. A friend and I are creating a software to help students. I'm thinking of creating a newsletter to offer help and guidance to the students. This will help get eyeballs on the software. I know Parr's The Hustle was...

    Ask Me Anything About SaaS ( I'm building my 7th )

    GOLD! HOT! SAAS / APPS 
    My friend and I built our first web app. We are working out the kinks before moving onto beta testing. It's on Heroku at the moment. There is a video component to it and we are just using YouTube at the moment. Are there any affordable platforms for hosting? Heroku will get expensive...

    AMA - I built a software company worth 8 figures

    GOLD! HOT! EXECUTION AMA 
    @Ravens_Shadow I love the journey, man! Big ups to you for paying your employees well along with exercising regularly and eating healthy. Working out is my stress reliever too. This is a hindsight question, but what would you do if you didn't find your cofounder on the Discord? My friend...

    Reaching $500K building a Google Analytics alternative

    NOTABLE! WEB/DIGITAL 
    Thanks for posting this. Our MVP just launched and the bigger competitors (within the last several months) ramped up their game plan and released exactly what we're doing...so it got us a bit down. Appreciate the story, and appreciate MJ for sending this out in the text some days back :)

    Ask Me Anything About SaaS ( I'm building my 7th )

    GOLD! HOT! SAAS / APPS 
    Hey @eliquid Thanks for the helpful thread. Admittedly I'm asking this question without reading all the pages (planning to sometime this weekend when time permits), but would like to ask you this question for now: A friend and myself are building a VR software (B2B). The first version is...

    A billion-dollar opportunity: Shopify for SaaS

    SAAS / APPS WEB/DIGITAL 
    I'd like to know this as well. A friend and myself are building a VR based software that will be distributed via SAAS, but we don't have domain expert in SAAS or web based app building. We're still testing out the MVP on Wordpress and getting the software to be as good as possible, but at some...

    Escape Room Business

    I agree with what @biophase said. I've done a couple myself. All were organized as a team building event with my colleagues. All were in industrial parts of town too, guess rent is cheaper. It was really fun, but the work that goes into setting up the room seems expensive and time consuming...

    Tony Hsieh, former Zappos CEO dies at 46

    I found out on Saturday morning and it absolutely ruined my day. He was a favorite of mine. The book is absolutely wonderful and his company was one of the pioneers on putting customer service first. I remember going to a talk he held while he was in town. He and a buyer for Sketchers were...

    2 hours of cold calls a day

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    Haha. I used to be very self conscious. I moved to the states when I was 9-10 and had to learn English from scratch. That meant I had a strong accent for years. Some people still say I do now slightly. I was always shy in school too. Learning to talk to strangers was frightening to me...

    2 hours of cold calls a day

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    And you're still younger than me. I turned 35 earlier in the month :) Life is all perspective, man. 8-) I'm happy for you. This skill is important because it allows you be comfortable talking to strangers. We all sell at some point, be it asking your kid to eat vegetables, asking for a...

    100 Unsexy Business Ideas: Name as many as you can!

    GOLD! IDEA 
    Here's an idea NOT to take on...at least at the moment. I met with a client/friend today. He owns a die casting company...it doesn't get much more blue collar than this. They buy metals (primary aluminum and zinc) in bar shape. Those bars are heated to 2000+ Fahrenheit and pour into desired...

    I've Read UNSCRIPTED!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    I read it for the 2nd time and took notes throughout. This made it more time consuming but I was able to pick up stuff I missed the first time around. I crashed at the beginning of the year and felt lost after a couple years of going 'rogue'. After reading Unscripted for the 2nd time, I was...

    From Flat-Broke to Financial Freedom: How to Get Started When You Have No Money

    GOLD! HOT! 
    Great video, MJ. Like before, I'll buy the hard copy ASAP and give that to a friend and buy a digital copy once available. I assume that whatever you plan to do for your specialized unit will have to pass the CENTS test? I work with a lot of trades and this question always haunts the back of...

    100 Unsexy Business Ideas: Name as many as you can!

    GOLD! IDEA 
    Absolutely. (In a non pandemic situation), go to your local Apple store at night, and there's a good chance you'll see a cleaning crew. A lot of cleaning and maintenance is done off hours to reduce the interference of business operation. A client of mine paid us almost $1M a year in...

    100 Unsexy Business Ideas: Name as many as you can!

    GOLD! IDEA 
    One of my painting client does this. The guy moved to the US in the 80s and just started painting. He lived in his car for a while, eventually worked his way up to buying a van and doing it on his own on weekends and grew the company. His payroll is about $5M now. Their USP is they paint...
