    Figuring Out Instagram

    SOCIAL MEDIA EXECUTION 
    I like the style of your posts - clean & simple. One important thing to remember: A lot of people are uploading quotes to Instagram. While I know your's are valuable (because they've helped me before), how can you set yourself apart? Think of the example in Unscripted about the fitness...

    Growing a YouTube Channel to 100,000 Subs

    NOTABLE! SOCIAL MEDIA 
    Great progress so far! When I looked at your channel, I noticed you don't have one consistent theme for thumbnails though: Obviously, in the beginning, you need to test around what style works best, what style fits your brand the most and what style stands out in the search results. I...

    Describe your first sale as an entrepreneur!

    EXECUTION NOTABLE! 
    Making the first sale will be scary You've sent out countless emails. Week after week, with nearly no results. You got on the phone with some businesses, but that never went anywhere. For weeks, your efforts felt out of place. But suddenly, things lined up. He answered your email with an...

    Let's talk about 'talking about it'

    MINDSET 
    Six months later, and things are turning south. Your market isn't reacting the way you anticipated. Your supplier can't fulfill your order in time. Your client tried to screw you over. Whatever it is, you've spent the last 3 weeks putting out fires, trying to hold everything together. "Is...

    Starting an online candy business

    There could be a huge demand for candy targeted to people with a dietary restriction. Could be as broad as 'vegan chocolate', or as specific as 'gluten free cookies'. Take a look at @Scot 's Insider Thread. Some people can't eat certain ingredients. If you manage to replicate their favorite...

    Germany Meetup Opportunities

    MEETUPS 
    This. Another example: I tried to revive the German Skype group a long time ago (which didn't work out, for the best). Since then, I got a lot of PMs from Germans sharing their Skype ID to join. While I like the initiative, nearly most of them are logged off forever before I can even write out...

    This guy was right about Fastlane Forum

    LANDFILL 
    Oh, and at least for me, beeing and posting on this forum is one big transformation in it self. When I started, all of my posts were Action Fakes, abstract theories and motivational nonsense. But the more I grew, the less bad content I posted. Maybe having bad posts and threads is neccessary...

    This guy was right about Fastlane Forum

    LANDFILL 
    I noticed you don't have the "Fastlane Insider" badge. Maybe there is a correlation? A lot of members are afraid to post business details on the Outside, because too many people have stolen ideas, processes and information. On the Inside, people are a lot more comfortable to share. The Inside...

    The Definite Guide to Productized Services

    NOTABLE! 
    @UnrealCreative Thank you for creating this thread! Reading your progress thread I was hoping you would do this. You've made some good points in your posts, I'm interested where this is going (Hopefully #Gold). Good idea to break the business down to an equasion. (If answering these questions...

    Germany Meetup Opportunities

    MEETUPS 
    Small correction, I'm only busy during the morning. If the meetup is still happening, at what time do you meet? If it's late enough, maybe I can come by. Have you planned anything, or someone of you staying for the 4th? @Eisenstein @Longinus @Seeker @Ikke @JDx

    The Official 2018 Fastlane Summit Event Thread

    MEETUPS 
    For those of you that didn't attend (myself included), think about why you didn't attend. I'm sure you know the excuses you've told yourself, but are aware of the real reasons you didn't attend. I know I do. "Not successful enough" "Not enough money" "Bad spoken English" "I'm afraid" Pick...

    I am starting a "Habit Supportgroup" (building habits through Social accountability) Anybody interes

    MINDSET 
    Hey @Rammsteinfanboy , what habits are you trying to build right now? Having any kind of theme overlap might accelerate the group's success. For example, if we are both trying to make X sales call per day, we can help each other through our own learnings - but if I'm trying to hit sales...

    An "Attracting Women" Video Course

    HOT! 
    Why don't you use this as a starting point: And do it like @racyred09 explained. If I had to guess, there are a lot of men on this forum with the problem above. Make a post, let them PM you. Create some kind of Group where those people can join anonymously. Maybe 10 people. Engage with them...
