    What's The Best Route?

    IDEA 
    What makes you think soap isn't oversaturated? Everyone from Dove all the way down to your local hobbyist who sell their crafts at the local farmers market are making soap. It has a very low barrier of entry. You can buy everything you need in bulk to start for less than $100, just look on...

    Andrew Tate's Hustlers University, Will it Benefit Me?

    GURUS 
    Tate is pretty known in the red-pill/manosphere community. He's a regular guest on Fresh n' Fit podcast, the beta males eat up every word he spits out. As far as business, I read somewhere that most of his money now comes from owning several casinos in Romania. He must've invested his money...

    INTRO 
    Sandman, you and I are a lot alike. I also have my bachelors in Industrial Engineering, MS in Industrial Management. Spent the last 11 years working for two Fortune 100 companies, currently work for a private manufacturer of commercial products. I've done everything from production supervision...

    Overseas Workers Taking Over Our IT Jobs

    In 2006 when I was starting college this was the exact fear that I had. I ended up going into Industrial Engineering. Do I regret it? no. But then the smart phone explosion happened. And Facebook. Sometimes I wonder where live would've taken me if I ended up studying computer science.

    Pooper Scooper Service

    I see you're in Ireland, so that market might still be untapped. There's companies already doing this in the US. Pet Butler is one of them I could've swore I saw a pickup truck years ago with the same name on it "Pooper Scooper". They might've sold or merged with a different company. The...

    Looks like there's some new tool now, Logan Shippy. I just started seeing his sponsored ads in my newsfeed too. Talking about trading "time for money" and starting an online business.

    Need a website, should I do it myself or outsource?

    EXECUTION 
    I have someone working on the site now, not sure exactly what they're using. Yes, we show up on maps, but not until you zoom in a little bit first. I think you're right, once we get some reviews we'll be displayed more prominently. That's what I told my dad to focus on for now. Remind his...

    Need a website, should I do it myself or outsource?

    EXECUTION 
    Yes! I plan on using some Facebook ads once the website is finished. This will direct traffic to the site and look more professional in my opinion rather than linking to a google listing.

    Need a website, should I do it myself or outsource?

    EXECUTION 
    I think I'm going to order new business cards, double sided, and on the back have "Find us on" Yelp and Google. This is OK according to their policy, as long as you're not blatantly saying "HEY! LEAVE US A REVIEW!"

Social media >>>way too many loose ends I started with Googling the business name and really didn't know what to expect, I was just hoping not to...

    Getting Into Real Estate With No Money

    From your experience, does this work in every type of neighborhood? A/B/C class? A few towns over from me there are builders knocking down $1 million homes to build $3 million homes. In my parents neighborhood there are empty lots going for $250,000 and up. Just wondering...

    Both Feet First

    I'm sure @lewj24 didn't mean to offend, but he is right, you're kinda starting your business backwards. You've established a domain, thinking about an LLC, PO Box, invoicing software? For what? You're acting like you're preparing for some kind of Black Friday sale where you're expecting...

    Anyone use an answering service/call center?

    EXECUTION 
    458, I think I'm going to give these guys a try, they have a 30 day free trial. Do they charge on a per monthly basis? Any contracts/commitments?

    Anyone use an answering service/call center?

    EXECUTION 
    I'm looking for something simple, when customers call our business number I just need someone to take down their name, contact info, and brief scope of work. Then this should be forwarded as a text or email. I've researched this a bit and became overwhelmed, there's a lot of companies that...

    Need a website, should I do it myself or outsource?

    EXECUTION 
    Yes, this is exactly it. Most of these mom and pop companies have minimal or no web presence at all. I looked at some other local companies nearby and they either have no web site or if they do it looks like something put together in the 90's (which is probably the case). I'm currently working...
