    Starting a local sanitation business. Thoughts?

    Yes. The concept would be quite close to that of Zerorez. This will essentially be a service that will be of interest to germaphobes. Can be thought of as elimination of germs, bacteria, allergens and viruses. It will not be limited to carpets alone. Any surface in residential (or commercial)...

    Starting a local sanitation business. Thoughts?

    Hey guys. I've been thinking of starting a local sanitation business, serving a major North American city with a population of 3+ million people. The idea is to start small: purchase a capable commercial steam cleaner - such as this one, priced in the $1,000-$1,500 range - and get things...

    Sell advertising to local retail stores

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    The reason I have decided against offering a free trial is that realistically, the result they will see in a month will be nothing to brag about, and then getting them to sign up will be difficult. People usually need to see new ads multiple times, getting familiar with new brands before they...

    Chasing Freedom - Creating My Own Digital Marketing Company

    MARKETING 
    Once you've determined that a prospect is a good lead, how do you go about getting in front of the decision maker? In my experience, the biggest challenge with selling advertising/marketing services to local businesses has been the inability to get a hold of the DM efficiently. Most of the...

    Starting a cleaning business

    EXECUTION 
    Sweet. How did you find the part-time cleaners? It also looks likes that an average person working at McDonald's earns about $13/hour in Stockholm. With that in mind, $24/hour (you pay your cleaners) is almost twice as much. There's definitely room there for reduction should you wish you...

    Starting a cleaning business

    EXECUTION 
    Great job on getting started. How do you go about managing the staff? Are they all on-call, waiting to be assigned new work? Also, $4 CPC isn't bad at all for this space. Over time, you should be getting that CPA down which would increase your profit margin quite a bit.

    Why is everyone forcing me to get good grades and saying I won’t be successful otherwise?

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    Howdy y'all. Hope everyone's doing well. I currently own an email list of people interested in local discounts from the stores in their city of residence. The list currently has 1000+ verified members who have voluntarily double-opted in to receive the exclusive discounts. Starting next...

    SaaS Startup Thread, 2nd Time Entrepeneur

    EXECUTION SAAS / APPS 
    Excellent point, ReubenA. This has undoubtedly been the biggest thing I have struggled with on my personal entrepreneurial journey. Finally, I have come to learn - the hard way, sadly - that regardless of how good (or average) your idea is, marketing and making sales determine whether or not...

    Mind sharing what you sell? Obviously no specifics. Tell us about which industry you're in.

    MINDSET 
    Great read. You do make a few good points, and the gist of what you're saying makes perfect sense. However, it is critical to keep in mind that there is a fine line between a luxurious "VIP" product, and something that's just overpriced for the hell of it. Either way, glad to know you're...

    Opening a restaurant! (I'm 17)

    HOT! 
    The process? Get these 2 right: 1) Location. Location. Location. And again, location. 2) Food that simply tastes good. Open a restaurant at a busy and highly-visited location, and get the recipe right: feed your customers addictively delicious food. You do that, and your chances of swimming...

    Opening a restaurant! (I'm 17)

    HOT! 
    Go ask the owner(s) of Burger King, Pizza Hut, Boston Pizza, KFC, and McDonald's if their highly-successful restaurants are doing the opposite of separating time and money. Be sure you are getting lied to if they say so. Obviously, those are very much popular restaurants and franchises, but...

    Opening a restaurant! (I'm 17)

    HOT! 
    Does the opposite of separating time from income? How so? Beauty of owning a successful restaurant lies in the fact that once you go famous, you can hire people to do the hard work for you.
