    Progress Thread - Long Overdue

    SAAS / APPS 
    An update. I have all of the technical requirements in hand and have been driving hard. I still have some items to expand the CRUD calls to all tables, but all the tables; relationships and hydration of those tables are done. I have the UI well underway as well. There are a few security...

    Should i learn the basics of code & then use A.I to code?

    IDEA 
    You should use AI to learn how to code. Open up ChatGPT and tell it you want to learn the basics of .net core 8 (or whatever) and its going to spit out a bunch of stuff you do not understand. Start at the first thing you do not understand and say, "Explain this to me". Be clear to it that...

    Progress Thread - Long Overdue

    SAAS / APPS 
    Thinking about it; I suppose it really solves his problems with the industry and will serve his immediate needs when we launch. Some of that existing need/business will apply directly to what he is already doing, but our platform will have extra elements and opportunities for that business...

    Progress Thread - Long Overdue

    SAAS / APPS 
    I have been lurking on this forum for a long time now. A couple of posts with false starts. This will be a first for me on here as its actual execution time. I can get into the FTE and all the other background later on when I have a bit more breathing room, but I have officially gotten...

    Mentorship

    HOT! PEOPLE 
    Please read and re-read the books MJ has provided us. This forum is intended for those who want to BUILD mentorship programs, not join them. I would recommend not burring bridges before they are even built. Much of the feedback you will face here may be harsh and to the point. They are...

    Tennis Database Business

    IDEA SOURCING SCALING 
    At the very least, you could look up the business on google via api and determine if the traffic is heavy or light atm. That won't guarantee open courts but a higher probability of being able to play.

    Getting Traction - Consulting and long term SaaS

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    Andy, really appreciate your input. Good to hear from you sir! The client brought up the hourly idea. He also indicated if I wanted to present an overall price that was fine as well. It was me being unprepared that brought up the limbo. I admit, I am very nervous with this being my first...

    Wanted to create this thread and plan on updating as often as something interesting happens. After much sidelining, I finally took the advice of of multiple people on this thread, and started reaching out to my immediate network to get the word out about what I am trying to do. Did not take a...

    Hey Noah, I just finished up your book and it was awesome! First, I wanted to thank you for being honest and transparent about how you felt working along side some of your co-workers at facebook. I do not work at a 'facebook' sized company, but I often do compare myself and my work next to a...

    Finding A (Fastlane) Need Is This E A S Y

    IDEA 
    Updated my idea list to include the above. Thanks for the perspective I really only have 'need' as a current criteria. I think Need needs to be included but its keeping me deadlocked on ideas. I can go back and forth on if something is 'needed' all day.

    Starting a web design agency

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    I admit I am doing something similar. I am a software engineer by trade but usually the companies I work for hire designers for front end work, I just supply the data. Taking a bit of time to make pure HTML and CSS templates for static websites to earn some side income for when I can get a...

    Looking for Directions and New road

    FEEDBACK 
    I don't fully agree with the dropshipping being slowlane, but I know it is def. not for me either. I was simply using it as an example to show you can sell outside your physical location. (There is a gold thread here where someone did that (or ECom and held storage) and made a great amount of...

    Online vs Offline Business

    HOT! 
    Oh also I wouldn't pay any mind to the "you can't do it" esp. from potential competition. They don't want you taking market share so of course they will nay say. Let the market decide if it is viable.

    Online vs Offline Business

    HOT! 
    Trust me I get it, I am in the same stage as you are. Your anxiety and head banging are not done alone. I have a rather large dent in the shape of my forehead on my wall that I have been adding to for a while now. I have had multiple failures already. In my failures I have asked: Did the...

    Online vs Offline Business

    HOT! 
    @Andy Black helped me with a similar thread to this. Try shifting from the "online vs offline" mindset to the "Value add" mindset. Find something that is painful for you, or family, or a trend you spot and fix that issue. Focus on adding value rather than starting a business. If you decide at...

    Landing page?

    Check out Squarespace.com, Wix.com, Gatorhost.com, Bluehost.com. They all have templates to build websites. May take some time to check out, but you can generate leads off of them as well. If you have a custom idea for a website, you may need to hire a developer. I think all services are...
