    Working at an IT shop, About to start my own VOIP biz, Boss wants it under his umbrella? Any upside?

    QUESTION

    Why should they choose to work with you? What do you offer that others don't? Find a USP A better approach is to build relationships with people and see if there's anything you can help them with. For example, instead of putting them inside the mailbox, why not walk up to them and introduce...

    You haven't lost any money, this is simply a paid lesson - you're learning! As others mentioned, Brand Marketing is a BEAST.

    Considering the above statement, it seems like your main concern is simply online privacy. If that's the case, then I suggest a paid VPN. What is the use of running a Linux machine if you're browsing unencrypted and having all your queries logged? There's no doubt that running Linux is much...
