| Posted: 02 Dec 2018 05:38 AM PST Hi Reddit! I spent the last 6 months trying to build Visalist. Now your quest for tension free visa requirements research is over. Here's why I made this web app: A year back I became a digital nomad and started traveling. I wanted to visit all the countries that I fancied. Soon I realized that you need a visa to most of these countries, few have VOA(Visa on Arrival) and for others, you have to get it through their embassy in your home country(in my case India). So now I wanted to see the countries I could go without waiting for 3 weeks to get a visa, did some research. After few blogs and websites finally got the list. Traveled to a new country. After few months I wanted to go to another country. I had to do the same search, couldn't find the old one, found a new site which had more countries offering VOA. One of my friends told me that when he researching for Vietnam visa, he found almost 10 websites with .gov and it was really confusing. Many blogs don't have links to official websites of embassies. To summarize the problems:
So I took the matter into my own hands and decided to aggregate this info, organize and present it in a useful way to the user and so Visalist was born. While I was talking to my friends about this, I realized many people wanted something similar from a long time. So what this has is
I coded, designed and built Visa List using VueJS with NuxtJS for the frontend, MySQL for backend using Golang. I was originally an android developer and learned these just to build Visa List. I believe every person who wants to explore the world around them and would have faced the problem I faced, so could find value in what I have built. So I would love to know what you think of this and would be more than happy to hear your suggestions and feature requests. Let me know what you want to be added or removed or do I need to build something entirely! Thanks! @1HaKr Watch Visalist Teaser for tension free travel [link] [comments]  |

| Why you, as an entrepreneur, should subscribe to Pewdiepie Posted: 02 Dec 2018 01:57 PM PST Hey everyone! For those of you that are unaware, the most subscribed channel on YouTube for almost 5 years has been Pewdiepie. YouTubers are entrepreneurs in their own right, and Pewdiepie is undoubtedly the most successful with currently over 73 million subscribers. But here's the thing: the multi-national corporation T-series, and Indian music production company, is less than 150,000 subscribers away from overtaking Pewdiepie. Pewdiepie has always been super inspirational for me, so as fellow entrepreneurs it would mean so much to me and all of his fans if you all could help us in our fight against big business!

| Made my first website looking for feedback! Posted: 02 Dec 2018 12:31 PM PST Hello everyone, Got pretty bored this Sunday so decided to get a domain and make a music website. I have some playlists on Spotify with a decent following so I figured I would want to share them. Just made this website in about an hour time and am just wondering what people think of the design and layout. TLDR: No real business strategy, made a website for fun and just want feedback on the layout. Thanks Everyone [link] [comments]  |
| Learn programming or sales first? Posted: 02 Dec 2018 02:31 AM PST I have 2 months of holiday before university starts again and I was wondering what I should do. My end goal is to freelance and then eventually a tech startup but I know I need to do something fast - to prove my parents that I can drop out of university and still be successful. Plan A: Initially, I was planning on getting a sales job, and then using my spare time to 70% learning sales and 30% coding. I do know some coding e.g. data structures, basics of C. Plan B: My other idea is to learn coding intensively these 2 months and THEN focus on learning sales skills and getting freelance clients on upwork or whatever the sites are. It's not easy to learn a lot of coding if I don't devote much time to it these 2 months and learning sales requires practice over time as it is a soft skill. What are your thoughts? Should I go with plan A or plan B or do you have any other suggestions? [link] [comments]  |

| What are the components of a business? Posted: 02 Dec 2018 01:42 PM PST At its root I realize that a successful business is simply a thing which sells a product of value greater than its cost to the consumer, and a value greater for the business than its production cost. In essence that is the model. But that doesn't portray its entirety. What are the components of a business necessary to get a customer base and keep it? What are the components of production? What are the components of sales? What are the components of management? Essentially if you could break the parts of a business down into parts how would you define each part? [link] [comments]  |
| What Should I Choose? Shopify vs. Woocommerce vs. Others Posted: 02 Dec 2018 05:38 AM PST Hi guys, I know usually the answer to these questions would be "depends", so I'll talk more about what I think and my situation, and if anyone had experience with either platform could shed me some light. I've just started an online store selling computer parts, accessories, digital products, and smartphones, etc for about a months now, and now I think I should decide one platform and stick with it for the long term. Currently, my store is running on Woocommerce with 50+ plugins (most of it are WooCommerce/YITH plugins), and hosting on business plan Kinsta. I've been using WordPress for 4 years, and over the time I've also learned some PHP and server management, especially server speed optimization, so I would say I'm pretty equipped to handle Woocommerce site, but here are some questions that makes me wanna reconsider if I should switch to Shopify or some other e-commerce platform:
All these problems actually led me to question on a single thing, which is scalability. So I did a search online to see if I can find any big brand, big company that are using WooCommerce, which I can't find much, most of them are just showing WooCommerce had a lot more market share than Shopify, but I can find a lot of big brand running their big online store on Shopify. These results convinced me Shopify are able to handle bigger sites, but WooCommerce was unable to convince me on that. Now if you've made a similar decision before, or you've experienced with both platform, can you tell me which one you would choose based on the situation? (Btw, I tried Shopify previously, but didn't like the limited customizability, but I think scalability are the more important question here..) EDIT2: Can someone explain to me the Shopify Fees, say if I go with the $299/mo plan with 0.5% fees, does that means for all transaction I just have to pay 0.5% fees, or do I have to pay 0.5% + (The fees my chosen payment gateway charge) = Total fees?

| Access to credit / Loan - CC / Business or personal - Texas Posted: 02 Dec 2018 01:07 PM PST Good day to you, Internet! First off - thank you for your time in reading this post and giving me your feedback, I truly appreciate it! I am looking to increase access to credit - would that be loans or credit card. Credit: score 750, total current available credit: 13K (2 CC: CSP, BofA CC) Currently have 75k cash in bank - preapproved for Green Amex, Costco Anywhere Visa® Card by Citi, Citi Simplicity® Card 0% APR for 21 mo, Citi Premier Card (however, I don't want to get a 2k CC and have a hard inquiry) I can do a credit card limit increase at BofA - they do soft credit pull, however, waiting for your recommendations Self employed (1.5 years in business - realtor) 4.5 in Canada Looking into buying rentals and flipping in Dallas, so credit will be used for business - rehab costs - short term (3-6 mo), ideally looking to get access to 50K+ of new credit. Hard money lenders will cover - Purchase price + rehab costs (I pay rehab costs first, then lender pays me back after verification) What would be my best course of action? Local Banks, Big Banks, crowd funding, credit cards, loan sharks? :D PS. If anyone in Dallas area would like to partner up on a deal - let me know! Thank you and have a great weekend!

| Looking for suggestions on Order Management Software Posted: 02 Dec 2018 01:03 PM PST We currently operate both in the B2C and B2B space. We sell via tradeshows, phone orders, Shopify, Etsy, Amazon, and a variety of other 3rd party outfits like Wayfair and Nordstrom. So our orders are coming in from a variety of sources. We currently use Stone Edge Order Manager, which is a desktop/server based system run on Mqsql to import orders and then use Fedex or USPS to import customer details, create labels and ship packages. We use Quickbooks to handle all the accounting tasks separately. Since we not only produce/manufacture items, but also purchase pre-made items inventory is sometimes hard to manage. I am looking for a more robust, but not super expensive Order Management System. I have looked at Tradegecko and Stitch Labs but haven't been totally satisfied. Ideally I'd like something that has an API we can use for some external processes. Open to any and all ideas, even QB Enterprise if that seems like it might work, just nothing as expensive as say NetSuite. [link] [comments]  |
| Are there any private label manufacturers that will produce customized jewelry for my company? Posted: 02 Dec 2018 12:57 PM PST I am the owner of Elite Rocks. This is currently a two man operation and we don't have the tools necessary to create customized jewelry yet. We are thinking about hiring a manufacturer to create these for us. For example, one customer of ours wanted a pendant made out of silver in the shape of Africa but we were unable to make it. Any suggestions or recommendations? [link] [comments]  |
| Approaching affiliates to promote my webinar Posted: 02 Dec 2018 12:35 PM PST Hi everyone. Does anyone have any great examples of having people promote on your behalf? I'm planning on doing a webinar next year that will in turn promote a course and my plan was to get tsome of my traffic through affiliates. My webinar and the course that's sold on the back of it will be about public speaking and how to do it with confidence. I've developed a lot over the last 15 years from a shy teenager to a confident public speaker, through my experiences in the army briefing large groups, going on to become a youth trainer and then onto a becoming a professional speaker. The course would be an 8 week module course £287 with a 50% cut going to affiliates. I've never had anyone work as an affiliate and was wondering if anyone had any examples of stuff that worked really well for them or any best practice. Cheers [link] [comments]  |
| Do your new/potential customers usually inquire via messaging or by call?

| Posted: 02 Dec 2018 12:22 PM PST So we're a small production company. thus far we have worked with a local music fest and have done a short film. We have a lot planned ahead but actually catching the eye of audiences seems to be hard. Actually getting customers. Creative types rarely want to pay, and those who will pay will often undersell our actual work (work that would usually cost upwards of $700 but only being offered $200). Then those who are willing to pay and the like, often their timeframe is at their own beck and call. How do we set our foot down without appearing rude and hurting our public image?

| How to charge mobile app advertisement? HELP Posted: 02 Dec 2018 11:52 AM PST Hey guys, we are a very small Startup from Germany (actually only the two IT-founders). Together we developed an app that already has more than 300.000 downloads in the Google Play Store with an average 4.4 rating. Now we are starting to shift from automatic mobile app advertising that is controlled by Google to partnerships with stores (pet supplies). As additional information, we collected 1.5M impressions and 3.400 clicks last month. Besides, Google statistics categorize 76% as "shoppers" and 56% as "pet lovers". Due to our technical background, we would like to ask, if you can estimate common CPM prices for small banners and interstitial that we could charge of those chains. We are happy about any help!

| Posted: 02 Dec 2018 03:48 AM PST No pre-teams. No ideas that have been released before. Just a bunch of entrepreneur on a new path that could possibly team up or go solo to survive the eliminations. I liked the original StartUp podcast that followed all the little details of what creative choices were made.. the sound bits of meetings/convos. Or maybe a Terrace House approach. This could be Twitched/YouTubed (with an actual editor/videographer), Instagrammed. I don't have the capital to rent out an Airbnb for a few months, hire editors/social & I don't have anyone in mind to recruit as 'contestants' but that could all be put together.. if the idea is any good. So my question to you guys is... what do you think? [link] [comments]  |

| This Plan Is Either Perfect Or Terrible Posted: 02 Dec 2018 11:00 AM PST I'm specifically targeting high AOV custom auto shops but pretty much any business with high AOV because I'm selling consumer level 3D graphics so a business with a 3k AOV wouldn't mind spending 1500 to increase conversions, at least that's what I'm basing this on. Where can I find/make a list of businesses like this? And is this model feasible? [link] [comments]  |
| Finding Clients (Housecleaning) Posted: 02 Dec 2018 10:50 AM PST TL;DR: I'm looking for housecleaning clients. Any advice? How do service-based businesses build clientele from scratch? Hello all, Over the past couple of years my friend and I have shared a couple of jobs doing cleaning work, including housecleaning, housekeeping, commercial cleaning, etc. Trying to keep a long story short, we currently regularly clean (houses) for two prior clients directly - as in we just text with them and show up and they write us personal checks. We have no official business entity or anything, but we are very much interested in expanding clientele and making a real thing out of it. My current vision is really just doing what we do now, but for a lot more people to a point where we can live off of it. Should we reach that point, we may consider trying to scale up further and hire a couple of people and continue down that path to becoming "just the bosses" but that is the type of thing I would fully reevaluate down the road, rather than trying in any way to set up for now. Baby steps and all, plus we have a lot of fun working together. So to that end, the main thing I'm seeking now is how to find more houses to clean. In general, how do service-based businesses build clientele from scratch? Do we need to sort of present ourselves as a couple of friendly locals looking for work, in order to maybe appeal to people's desire to support that? If we did fliers on the streets and the sort, do people trust that when it comes to strangers in their home? I imagine people would typically go for an established bigger chain for that reason. We could get testimonials from our current two clients (one has offered already, and we have great rapport with both), but I wouldn't be sure what to do with them. I could stitch a website together myself (I have a super basic background, but it would be nothing very polished) but then I still wouldn't know how to get people visiting it, and I still have a difficult time imagining two testimonials on a bland website would capture much interest when they could navigate to dozens of more established, trustworthy competitors' sites in a few seconds. There's also asking our current clients for referrals, which has come up with one of them and he sent out a few emails... but perhaps we could offer incentive in the form of referral discounts or something. It would likely need to be structured toward rewarding repeat business. I feel like trying to network from what we have is the best route in general, BUT I don't think two clients is anywhere near a critical mass to be able to build on yet, y'know? Nor do I know the best way to leverage them. Apologies for the stream of consciousness, I have no expectation of anybody addressing every single thing I put in there, just any notes on any of it from anybody would be super appreciated. Trying to figure out how to grow from the very small start we have so far - people want their houses cleaned, we want to do it, how do we connect?? Thank you! [link] [comments]  |
