    The Great Rat-Race Escape by MJ DeMarco, Now Available (All formats!)

    HOT! 
    Just finished it! Beautiful piece and really enjoyed the mix of fiction with a progressing timeline and the intermezzos / reflections, in which I constantly looked forward reading further about the Trotmans. This was a real pageturner for me.

    How do you sell a product that ISN'T a commodity?

    Is the product category/niche dying? So are your competitors sales also dying? Is it a niche you understand very well? You might establish yourself in the niche. I know a guy making a very good living in a dying market with only 1 competitor in the country. Do you sell one SKU or multiple? And...

    I would buy the hardcover as a collectors item, like vinyl. Then a 39.95 or higher price would be very okay. I don’t know if there is a market for this, but TMF is a classic that changed many lifes. Maybe you could do something special with the cover design and marketing? And maybe make it...

    Fed Up With Your Country? Where Is Left to Go?

    HOT! 
    Thanks for the info! I heard from people being there right now, that it really depends on the area you are located. The upper right, more surfy area is worse then on the westcoast I recall. I will do the research!

    For the last years - from januari > March - I escaped the winter, living and working in co-created communities. Initiated by and for nomad entrepreneurs. This year we picked Lanzarote. While the rest of Europe had lockdown, I eat at a restaurant as nothing was wrong. Lonely beaches and san...

    My notable reads of the last 3 months are: Profit First by Mike Michalowicz - Got this book years ago from our then bookkeeper. It never attracted me, but I was desperate to read something about accounting. COVID made our e-commerce business grow more rapidly then expected and we where in...

    What makes a good CEO

    EXECUTION 
    Sounds like an invaluable insight. Good luck with the process. Recommended reads on delegating are "It's Okay to Be the Boss: The Step-by-Step Guide to Becoming the Manager Your Employees Need" and "Real Power: Business Lessons From the Tao Te Ching"

    The Netherlands Food For reference, a McDonalds burger costs around 7 USD, which seems high. Housing Consumers bid at least 10% over the asking price, depending if you're in villages or hot area cities like Amsterdam or The Hague. For example a good friend of mine bought a house with an asking...

    What makes a good CEO

    EXECUTION 
    I recognise that and struggled a lot with it. I learned that delegating and creating a kind of hierarchy puts me in the best space. I like building the business and not managing the day-to-days. I made one eager employee more responsible as head of the team and besides that I created a Trello...

    The first sale for our latest brand was in Januari 2017, via an email bomb to all kinds of art stores. After reading the millionair fastlane, we quit our branding agency and decided to launch our own brand. We created a brand that produces stencils and it's a niche thing for the paint/artist...

    3D Printing as a business...does it make CENTS?

    HOT! 
    If I were you, I would start of with a printer that's not yours. Here in the Netherlands we have businesses that rent them out. You can borrow or rent one, this gives you a feeling about what's it all about. I've heard stories about 24 hours of printing for a really small object - which is not...
