    How can I virtual address in the US together with opening a US business bank account?

    QUESTION 
    iPostal is a pretty decent virtual mailbox company. The app alerts you when you get mail, and for a fee they'll open it and scan a photo to you or they can forward it anywhere.

    Spent too much time learning about completely different topics.

    INTRO 
    Hav When you learned specific things, what do you mean? Like really specific on that product/market, but not much on the marketing/sales end of the equation? If that's the case, maybe it's sales & marketing that you're missing. There's tons of info out there and without knowing it, businesses...

    Digital Meetup - Anyone up for it?

    MEETUPS 
    I met with some Fastlane guys in Florida a couple of times and it was always incredibly valuable. Seems like there are not a lot of conference calls on here (unless I'm missing it), so I'd like to organize some myself. I'd love to hear everyone's ideas/execution, we can do some roundtable...

    Your First Selling Experiences?

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    You learn through desensitization over time. When I first started doing sales about 5 years ago... I was scared. I thought people would chew me out, and it did happen from time to time, but I eventually stopped caring so much. Most of the time, your prospects aren't going to answer their...

    Hey, can anyone suggest a good FREE CRM (for starters)?

    Hubspot has a decent free version, PD I think does too... but if you want to get full function Pipedrive is so great and super simple, and only like $12/month. Lots of integrations with other apps, easy to import/export/get started, etc. Salesforce/hubspot are a little more powerful and a...

    Nice guys. I've been in B2B ad sales for about 5 years if you want to get a guest on. I work in a tiny company that makes us wear many hats, and it's very untraditional. We don't have quotas, no working hours, the boss treats us super well, no training, figure it out on your own, and learn to...

    My idea is to create VR training simulations for the industrial segment. I have 5 years in B2B sales, but no experience in this sector (except some training and dev courses). I was thinking of finding a client to do either free or super low cost work just to get my foot in the door. Then I came...

    IDEA 
    My plan is to make healthcare based VR education apps, still working on where I want to aim. I've got a few years of B2B marketing & sales experience, and this idea has been bothering me for years. I've been working at a VR dev company for free for a few months getting some great knowledge...
