    Early Stage Startup- Looking for Feedback

    Let me clarify myself to better understand my decisions. I started this as a freelancer and got quite decent results. Then I realized I'm actually very good at strategy and started utilizing that skill (by hiring people, starting the company development). At one point I got over the fear of...

    Early Stage Startup- Looking for Feedback

    Hello Fastlaners, I'm working on developing my Market Research Agency and I would really appreciate some feedback from you, especially considering my target is digital entrepreneurs. To get the elephant out of the room- I do have clients and I'm not just starting and wasting time on...

    Shift in Mindset Causes Riches

    EXECUTION 
    An update- I got frustrated that I can't find a marketing strategist who understands what I want. So, decided to use my best judgement and try to do the funnel myself, potentially hiring copywriters and ad managers as part of the process. But I wanna test my own logic against the market and see...

    Shift in Mindset Causes Riches

    EXECUTION 
    Man, thank you for your message! So, I'm currently hiring someone to build me a sales funnel with paid ads. That way I will diversify the firm's income from Upwork, as I don't like I am not in control there. Plan is to get more clients, so I could expand the firm with a few researchers to be...

    Shift in Mindset Causes Riches

    EXECUTION 
    Ever since I had my little breakdown, which you could read more on here, I started questioning my beliefs more. Actually, I want to thank Odysseus M Jones who called me out on my bullshit in the linked post. Initially, I didn't get why he said what he said, but over time I realised he was right...

    Insurance leads in Italy, Germany, and France

    Yes, the goal is to focus on insurance brokers. I actually managed to get information about the UK. Brokers there would get paid the bulk commission which is equivalent to 2 years of premiums paid by the customer. So, if the customer pays £40/month, the insurance company would pay £960...

    Insurance leads in Italy, Germany, and France

    Thank you for the thorough reply! The idea is to generate leads to the insurance broker. Yes, I will have to be compliant with the GDPR, so it works by running comparison websites and such. Then I get these leads directly to the brokerage, where their sales agents handle it. However, I need to...

    Insurance leads in Italy, Germany, and France

    Hey guys, Do you have any suggestions on how to obtain information on: The average commission that insurance brokers make on a sale in these countries? What leads are call centers buying? Or what type of leads do lead generation companies sell the most? I've tried using LinkedIn to reach out...

    I think I underestimate the dopamine thing, especially since so many of you are suggesting it, including YouTube. That said, I've started today and write this while casually drinking on Kombucha. I actually didn't know tea was responsible for dopamine. Damn. The place I currently live in is...

    Yeah, I'd agree I am 60% action faking, as the other 40% make me money atm. I'm currently freelancing on Upwork, but I want to start finding clients outside of it. So, I've created a website, have about 40 cold targets, but I am stuck on the outreach step. I'm thinking of using LinkedIn to my...

    Damn, I better print myself this reply and reread it every morning and night. Harsh truths that I needed to hear. I also meditate every day, but I think recently I activated something, so weird stuff happens during meditation. I don't know how much are you into spirituality, but apparently it's...

    I am! You are right that I haven't figured out my why, why not, and the whatever the F it takes. I can see how this will help me achieve my goals, so it's something I will be working on :) Regarding clients, most tend to love me and my insights. I'm currently in the process of raising my...

    Thanks @Abrodos, these points stood out to me. I had forgotten to focus on what is in my control and I was contemplating things that I should not worry too much about. Godspeed! I see, so you are projecting yourself in the future. I don't know if that's not gonna lead to regret later down the...

    I’ve attempted to write this post several times in the past few weeks. Every time I stopped, but the issue just keeps coming back. I just had a hard time being honest with myself, but this time, I've managed to write most of what's been bothering me. The truth is, I’ve never felt more alone in...

    Hey everybody! Decided to update you on my progress a bit! (For anyone that hasn't read any of the thread) So, a couple of months ago I attempted to start a business. I left my job and decided to work on it full-time. After a month of trying, I realized I was gonna fall short on cash soon, and...

    First Venture - Me against my thoughts

    EXECUTION 
    Let me update you on the story so far... I kept cold calling people, but honestly, everybody rejected me. I also realized cold calling is definitely not for me, so I need to hire someone if I ever do that again. I went out with the group of entrepreneurs I gathered. It was all fun and I got to...

    NMdad So, right now my goal is to create traffic to the website. I researched what keywords I want to target and hired a freelancer, who is knowledgeable in SEO. She wrote me an article that is 750 words long, which has been posted on the blog (this is the first blog post). Right now, I have...

    Thanks guys! The emotional ups and downs during my journey so far have been insane. They do make me feel alive! Today I initiated the seeds for my marketing campaign. I went out there- something I was afraid of. Right now I experience fear of being judged, or of nobody liking my idea, or of...
