    Starting and Scaling an Exterior Cleaning Business at 21

    GOLD! EXECUTION 
    Hi Ethan, sorry to read about the breakup. You're being way to hard on yourself. A breakup always sucks and we're all human beings and not robots. Now I don't know you, but to me it doesn't sound like you're lazy, but rather a bit exhausted and overwhelmed. This is natural. It's unrealistic to...

    Need someone to evaluate accounting software for me - VA? Where to hire?

    Yes, that's something the person doing this work could do (among other options). It's not a good use of my own time.

    Need someone to evaluate accounting software for me - VA? Where to hire?

    I don't really think I could generally use a VA at the moment, but there is one thing I really need help with: I'm looking for a tool, or a collection tools, that would cover the following needs: Log hours spent by hour staff (timesheets), ideally both billable and non-billable hours Generate...

    Building a Beauty Empire. From 0 to 180k profit in 8 month and beyond

    GOLD! EXECUTION 
    I guess that makes sense for a local business - but what if you have a brand/online store that ships internationally? Everything would be in English anyway, so I would be open to working with a company from anywhere. They would have to do Instagram/Tiktok marketing, videos I could have produced...

    How do you find a good marketing agency? That would be my biggest concern.

    Smashed my first 10k month!

    EXECUTION 
    Lol, this is like the typical pyramid scheme/scam. "Buy my course on how to get rich selling courses for $1k. The course is just $1k. Instant learning guaranteed!" The problem is that, at some point, you run out of greater fools to sell to.

    Best Laptop for Enterpreneurs?

    CHAT RANT 
    Some newer Macs have outstanding battery life, but you can also get this with some of the new AMD processors. It's easy to say "Macs have better battery life" when there are like 5 Mac models on the market, vs. thousands of Windows models. If you're not used to using a Mac, it can absolutely...

    Best Laptop for Enterpreneurs?

    CHAT RANT 
    Use what you have the most experience with. If you're a Windows user, don't buy a Mac, and vice versa. One isn't any better than the other, they're just different. If you want to go for a Windows machine and you're short on money, you may want to consider a refurbished Thinkpad. They are very...

    Cold email outreach

    MARKETING 
    I have recently been receiving quite good cold emails. When I didn't reply, they would follow up with something like "I understand you're busy, just wanted to follow up on my last email - would you have time for a quick chat next week?" or something like that. The emails felt very personal and I...

    Exiting the cubicle farm and taking Web-Design full time

    HOT! SIDE HUSTLE WEB DESIGN 
    Maybe your value proposition is just not good? I can’t imagine why I would want to pay for a pretty website - even if you were really good, which I’m skeptical about. Not to shit on your business idea, but if it’s not even your day job, I find it hard to believe you would be very good at it? It...

    How to find good clubs for entrepreneurs?

    But if you like the idea, why don't you start something like that? It could be an international club specifically for young entrepreneurs or something like that.

    I'd rather like to focus on my business that is already successful. Scaling that will be much easier than starting something new from scratch.
