    Cant stop undercharging!

    MINDSET 
    Well, it seems like I have something to work on. It seems like I have this issue more with the service stuff, than product stuff. For example, I price a boat at say $30k. Thats it, thats the price. If you don't like it, you can leave. I can easily charge the full 30k and feel good about it...

    Cant stop undercharging!

    MINDSET 
    I kind of get the opposite sometimes though... The brakes example: "Changing the brakes is so easy, it shouldn't have taken you so long" "All mechanics are scammers that rip you off, you included" "I shouldnt be paying you for 5 hours for you to just change that fuel filter screen, it took you...

    Sheet metal prototype parts supplier

    SOURCING 
    I havent even heard of those until now. MFG seems more like a serial production marketplace, but I will try makers row. In any case, these will be EXTREMELY helpful if I my MVP garners enough interest to start mass production. Getting this MVP done is probably the toughest part I need to get...

    Sheet metal prototype parts supplier

    SOURCING 
    Hi, quick question. I need someone that can make some pretty small parts from 24 gauge sheet metal. I have made up some drawings etc for the parts but finding someone to make them is a little hard. I tried around 20 local places but only one said they could make it so far, and at a pretty penny...

    Should I finish my Electrical Engineering degree?

    FEEDBACK 
    At least where I am, you become an authorized engineer after working in engineering for at least 4 years, masters or not. Also I have to pay a bunch for tuition here, and honestly that is kind of anti-fastlane in my opinion. There are the sidewalkers that spend immediately everything they earn...

    Should I finish my Electrical Engineering degree?

    FEEDBACK 
    Im in the same kind of boat here. Finishing my final year of aerospace eng. I also try to do a small business flipping boats during the summer (it doesn't always work out, but the knowledge gained was awesome). I'd say stick it out and finish your degree. There is a lot of stuff you can do with...

    Need to learn google ads stuff

    MARKETING 
    Hi, I am working on my project and realized over the past few days that throwing money at google ads won't make them work good. (No I did not throw any money at them). Can anyone suggest some resources so I can learn the basics of google ads? I'm really going to need it so I better read up now...

    What can I do to succeed?

    IDEA SLOWLANE QUESTION 
    Im really a bit of a nobody, so take my opinion with a grain of salt, but I think you missed one big thing. Youre trying to fix a swiss watch with a sledgehammer. You go all out coding putting in the effort without actually determining whether anyone needs your app. No matter how much you code...

    Loss of patent eligibility

    IDEA MARKETING FEEDBACK 
    Thanks! this is the answer I was looking for. I don't really have much experience with this stuff, so all I could go by was "official rules" without knowing how it actually kinda goes. I guess I will continue on as originally planned!

    Loss of patent eligibility

    IDEA MARKETING FEEDBACK 
    Hi, I was doing some useful youtube-watching about patents and stuff, when this one guy mentions that you loose eligibility for a patent if you make a public disclosure of your idea. Well shit... I had a great idea of making a prototype, having a photographer take pictures of it for me, code up...
