    Need Help With Closing Sales (Jordan Belfort System)

    MARKETING 
    1. Make sure you do your qualifying correctly. You're selling them a solution to the problems that they tell you about up front, not features, etc. 2. If you really have 100% confidence in your product and that it will produce tons of value for them, you shouldn't be worrying about price. 3. I...

    New Social Network Blowing Up (Exciting!)

    I have an account. I don't really get it. You make your profile and, like you said, "then what?". It's sort of like a combination of Facebook, Twitter, and Tumblr. But completely stripped down. And, for being really minimal, it's kinda confusing. However, if anyone wants an invite, PM me. I...

    Where do I get a SaaS service agreement/contract made?

    SAAS / APPS WEB/DIGITAL 
    Also, it's good to add a sense of urgency in your contracts. Put something like "Setup fee $500, but we will waive this if you sign by the end of this week", or "Quote valid for 7 days", or something like that. I believe Salesforce.com makes all of their quotes/contracts self-destruct after 3...

    Where do I get a SaaS service agreement/contract made?

    SAAS / APPS WEB/DIGITAL 
    The SaaS startup I work for uses a very simple template. Here are the parts: 1. This agreement is entered on this day _____ (the date) between (Party X -- your company) with offices at this location: (your location) and ______ (blank where they put their company name) with with offices at this...

    Email Marketing

    MARKETING 
    I think you have 3 ways to approach this: 1. This is a list of cold contact people. You can email them, but don't approach it like emailing actual subscribers. Think of it like emailing a list of people who don't know you (because they don't). These people are still at the very top of the...

    Learning to sell as a telco agent

    EXECUTION 
    Why about starting by asking how much they're currently paying? Then tell them how much they would be paying (and saving) with your service. This is what a lot of cable/satellite companies do when they go door to door.

    What was your "Holy Sh*t" moment?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Today the fuel light went on in my car. After I refueled, I realized that I had pumped 6 hours of my life into my gas tank. Holy shit.

    Have a SaaS Idea? Is it worth it? I'll tell you...

    IDEA SAAS / APPS 
    Awesome, thanks! Couple questions if you don't mind: 1. About cutting stuff out: My worry is that I'll cut too much out and then not be any better than the existing solutions. Or should I only go for people who aren't using anything yet, and worry about taking people away from other solutions...

    Have a SaaS Idea? Is it worth it? I'll tell you...

    IDEA SAAS / APPS 
    I actually look at it the opposite as you, I think LaunchRock is the step before you. Asking for a CC is further along the validation process than asking for an email, so I would use LR first and then your solution. Ok, I kinda see what you're saying now -- that's more of a post-validation...

    3. "Just as a visitor begins typing their Credit Card number in, LaunchVal stops them & dsiplays a Fully Customizable Popup" 3rd section :) 4. Would be awesome to have an option where you can actually take presales -- the next option after validating your idea is to take presales, so once you...

    Shark Tank - What Do YOu Think Will Happen????

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Hmmm.. Daymond. I'm thinking he'd say "It just doesn't move me. I think it's a really good product with great potential, but I don't think I can provide value" What do you think? LOL

    Have a SaaS Idea? Is it worth it? I'll tell you...

    IDEA SAAS / APPS 
    Dude, I'm totally your target market here, and I would be interested in something like this. Looking at your landing page: It is WAY WAY WAY too crowded. Bad spacing around the text, it's all too crammed in. Do you collect emails from people who partially fill out the form but don't finish...

    Have a SaaS Idea? Is it worth it? I'll tell you...

    IDEA SAAS / APPS 
    Ha, awesome. Very timely for me, I'm currently trying to get my first pre-sale of a SaaS product (haven't built it yet, only have mockups). I actually already have a pitch deck made, but any input would be helpful (although input from the market helps even more ;) ) I've already asked 5 people...

    **The Paint Brush Cover On Shark Tank **

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Hey Likwid, Who are you hosted by? If you haven't already, might want to notify your host about the impending traffic surge. Some hosts might freak out and shut you down when they notice a ton of traffic coming in, even if they can technically handle it. Either way, I think you'll be fine with...

    Hmmm.. here's what I'm thinking: Kevin is going to say "you have nothing proprietary and the big guys are going to crush you like the cockroach you are" (hope I didn't mess that line up). But he'll still make an offer with a royalty and/or licensing. Lori is going to play hard to get and not...

    Analyzing Landing Page Data Help Needed

    EXECUTION 
    I hate to put it like this, but this is not how marketers think. Almost no one will buy your product the first time they see it. I had your exact mentality a couple years ago and I got nowhere. Collect emails, remarket, do whatever you have to do. Those supplement websites that do millions...
