    What skills should I learn in 2024 ?

    IDEA 
    I'm not sure where you're coming from. Why do you think I have this limiting belief? I don't

    What skills should I learn in 2024 ?

    IDEA 
    Selling your skills is a practical way to learn the skills you mentioned. Being sarcastic doesn't make you right. You're allowed to actually explain and elaborate instead of acting like you know everything. What practical advice can you give OP to learn those skills you mentioned? How can he...

    What skills should I learn in 2024 ?

    IDEA 
    I genuinely didn't understand your point and asked you to elaborate, then presented my opinion. Does that make me arrogant? Everyone is giving practical advice to progress as an entrepreneur and you're telling a 17 year old to learn "operations" and "capitalization" without elaborating.

    What skills should I learn in 2024 ?

    IDEA 
    How do you learn all of these things without first selling your skills? An engineer, marketer or architect that wants to grow a large firm can't just start being a "real entrepreneur" and disconnect his time from money. He sells his skills and learns the things you mentioned along the way. And...

    What skills should I learn in 2024 ?

    IDEA 
    Yeah definitely, I was too lazy write in my comment that the post creator's intention to learn a skill doesn't work. You have to practice a skill. @Mtaz Start a business now that you'll be able to do in your free time from college. Only way to learn sales and marketing. Carpet cleaning, gutter...

    Can this be turned into a Fastlane??

    IDEA EXECUTION FEEDBACK 
    How about keeping customers in a CRM and contacting them after 6, 12, 18 months to see if they need servicing? Or upselling them with new products like an intercom, alarm systems and such? I work with a CCTV installer and said his most profitable service is actually repair and upkeep rather...

    Business Idea: Marketing Agency

    IDEA 
    As I said I only signed my first client for Facebook ads 2 days ago hahaha so it's not something I've experimented with a lot. This guy is paying me a retainer. I'm considering a pay per job pricing model because it's way easier to sell and also might earn me more, but it's outside of my...

    Business Idea: Marketing Agency

    IDEA 
    Take a look at this ad. https://www.facebook.com/ads/library/?id=909770986877449 It's very simple yet has been running since December 2022. Could you send me an ad that you ran unsuccessfully? keep in mind I'm a beginner but maybe I could still give some insight.

    Business Idea: Marketing Agency

    IDEA 
    I probably should have mentioned I'm not from the USA so the market might be different. We are not as advanced as US marketing agencies in regarding offers, niching down and etc. It's also 2.5% the population of the US so it might be because of that. Yep, choosing a niche is pretty important...

    Business Idea: Marketing Agency

    IDEA 
    An ad to get them to send me a message in Messenger. I ask them for a phone number, call them up and set up a zoom call. I know how to build really good looking landing pages as I have been freelancing as a website builder, but it's just unnecessary at the start. Validating the idea before...

    Business Idea: Marketing Agency

    IDEA 
    If you remember we talked in DMs and I'm also from the same country as you. If you want to get on zoom I'll show you how to find winning ads from your competitors and "copy" them. No need to waste money on new ideas or offers when you can just see what your competitors are doing. I won't try...

    Business Idea: Marketing Agency

    IDEA 
    I'm starting a marketing agency and I'll tell you exactly what I'm doing. I'm being mentored by a guy teaching me exactly this. I signed my first client 2 days ago and have a bunch of leads in the pipeline who I acquired really cheap. Step 1 Find a niche. The niche should receive AT LEAST $500...

    Does money actually buy happiness? (Finding the real answer)

    CHAT 
    I think it depends on the person. Some person that is rich may be fulfilled from having a lot of freedom because it's a principle they consider sacred. Another person might be fulfilled from hard work with people in need because they consider their work sacred.

    Travelling/Backpacking before pursuing Unscripted journey?

    MINDSET SLOWLANE 
    I don't think it's going to help you on your unscripted journey in any way. That doesn't mean it's not worth doing though, there's more to life than making money and building businesses. And it sounds like you really want to do it. It's your call.
