    I came across this old but gold post (from 2008) from Kevin Keller - 1000 true fans It has been completely rewritten recently (2016/ 2017), but the original is still up there on the same page. The more and more I read it, the more and more I thought: This is basically what @MJ DeMarco would...

    Stop what you're doing. Get a line of credit.

    HOT! 
    At most banks, for $150 a year you can open up a business line of credit up to $100,000 without providing financials. All you need is a personal guarantee and good personal credit. Then, you have $100k sitting for you for whenever you need it. When you need it, you only pay interest on the...

    I executed! Am I growing too fast now?

    Hey all, Forgive me if I haven't followed the right etiquette, I'm relatively new to the forum. However, I'll get to the point. I started my business 2 years ago whilst working a full time job and read as much as I could about building a scalable business (including MFL and Unscripted). I...

    The CENTS Business Commandments for Entrepreneurs

    GOLD! HOT! 
    Thought I'd start a thread based upon the CENTS Business Commandments found in The Millionaire Fastlane and UNSCRIPTED, just in case someone searches for it by search engine. Since this concept is covered in both books, I don't think I ever posted an "official" thread on the topic. It would be...

    Lesson In Trojan Mass Marketing Via Perverse Fascination

    MARKETING RANT 
    Did you know that America has been fascinated with the perceived hilariousness of African Americans and Jews since the mid 1920’s? You can verify it, yourself. On January 12, 1926, a bizarre two man comedy show entitled “Sam ‘n’ Henry” debuted on Chicago’s WGN radio station. Two years later...

    Small Country, Fastlane Business

    Hello fellow hustlers! At the moment, I live in a small country, which naturally limits market sizes in most niches.

    Are you still confused with SCALE and TIME too?

    CRYPTO INVESTING 
    While reading forum yesterday I came to read a post by MJ where he was appreciating a non-digital product made by a guy here on forum. From days, I'm confused with the scale and time factors of CENTS. Today, I've tested a market of home-based carwash service using facebook ads. While I was...

    Scaling a Fitness Copywriting Biz

    EXECUTION 
    This first post in this thread is more of an update than anything, but I'm taking this idea off of the shelf I stuck it on back in 2013. I've been MIA from the forum (and entrepreneurship in general) for a few years, so here's a quick-ish catching up... Skip to the bottom if you don't feel like...
