Amazon's profits are up 35% in 2020 and many also started to make money in lockdown Posted: 04 Mar 2021 06:51 AM PST Hi everyone, Recently I read an article on the Internet that Amazon earnings have grown very much in 2020. The company reported revenue of $96.1 billion, up from $69.98 billion in 2020 and the most it has ever collected in a single three-month period, according to FactSet records. A lot of people started to sit in lockdown and make a lot more purchases online. There are many successful stories of how someone opens an online store and becomes successful, or somebody starts making money as a freelancer and also makes progress. Oddly enough, everything really goes online, and I even saw an advertising banner in our city that encouraged people to buy food on the Internet. In addition, many of my friends began to buy food on the Internet, although before lockdown they always liked to go to a restaurant for a beer. I really believe that the world is changing dramatically and that now we have the best time to make money on the Internet due to the fact that many areas have started to go into online business. Over the past year, people have become very accustomed to staying at home. They have become lazy and they don't even want to take out the garbage from the house. The habit of staying at home has already changed their minds. They sit in front of the TV, but more often in front of the computer and place orders online. Offline businesses are really in complete bankruptcy and even ordinary people sitting at home can earn money online by providing services on the Internet, work as freelancers, or resell various goods. I would like to know what you have to say about everything that is happening in the world?
A few more words at the end ... Of course, not everyone can support my guess that all will be online in a few years, but the point is different. I believe this is a great opportunity to start a successful online business right now. What do you think? [link] [comments] |
What I gathered abt product evangelism, talking to Guy Kawasaki Posted: 04 Mar 2021 01:09 AM PST I had the opportunity to interview Guy Kawasaki a week ago, and I asked him what it means to be a good product evangelist, what does the role and goals look like. I wanted to share what he said, as it might be useful for a lot of us here. Here's what he said: Evangelism is probably the purest form of sales at the outset, where you are part of creating a movement or inspiring people to jump onto the bandwagon. And yet, when you put that into a sales context or look at it from a product company's lens – it's more than chasing sales quotas. What an evangelist does is bring the good news, and hopefully, you are evangelizing something that is good news. For example, for Macintosh, it increased people's creativity and productivity, and now for Canva, Canva has democratized design. So the difference between sales and evangelism is that sales is usually concerned primarily with one's success, like quota, commission, income, etc. Evangelism is concerned with the other person's success and benefit. So when I tell you to use or ask you to use Canva, it is because I genuinely believe it'll make you a better communicator by creating great graphics. <For want of space -- I couldn't put everything here. So I've put the detailed version as a blog post, which you may want to read and take notes from:> So if it's of interest, here you go --> https://www.yaagneshwaran.com/blog/product-evangelism-guy-kawasaki/ Here's what it covers: --> The key skills and goals of an evangelist --> Building a cause for your product --> Why it makes sense to target middle management than the traditional way of targeting decision makers- -> Assumptions vs. planting many seeds, and a lot more...

PSA: Why you should NOT outsource for a tech product Posted: 04 Mar 2021 05:11 AM PST EDIT: I've been getting DMs asking the name of the company and that I can post it, so it is a company called Systango. Seventeen thousand Euros and hundreds of hours wasted on it, I've realized that the number one way to run out of money and almost be forced to close down your startup is outsourcing. Some context. I am the co-founder of a job search website that is exclusively for a country in Europe (currently only on the web). I have some technical background, but I mostly focus on business development rather than actual development and programming because quite frankly, I'm not good at it. We have two in-house developers who work on the core web app (we use React). In the August of last year, in the middle of the pandemic, we thought it was a good time to start the development of a mobile app. We are bootstrapped, so we decided to save some costs and go with outsourcing. We 'heard' good things about outsourcing and saving money, so we thought it would be good. We posted on Upwork, contacted 'offshoring' partners who would connect us with vendors, etc. Note that we were naive and this was our first time outsourcing, so we didn't have a lot of information apart from Googling. I dropped my email address at a lot of these websites so that the vendors could contact me. This is where my stupid mistakes started: Stupid mistake one: picking a vendor from the spam folder. I don't usually check my spam folder, but I casually clicked on it. I had a few days old email from an Indian company, let's call it 'XYZ' (I am really not sure if we could name and shame here. Let me know if we could, I'll be open to name them). My spam filters caught it, possibly because they dropped a rate card there. I clicked on it, and decided to visit their website. Their website looked good, I'll give them that. It was well-developed, in proper English (I read that usually outsourcing companies stuff keywords with bad English), had its HQ in London, and office in central India (we found out later that they did not, in fact, have any office outside India) and had customers like Disney and Grindr (learned later that they did not)! They made a good first impression. I showed it to my partner and we shared the same thoughts. We decided to at least take a call with them. I emailed them back, and they replied in just under an hour that they would be happy to jump on a call and discuss. We got on a call the next day directly with their CEO. I thought it was odd because I expected a sales manager to be on the call, but I remember thinking at the time that it was a nice touch. The CEO was well-spoken, but she didn't sound super 'techy' to me. She was a decent salesperson, but dodged every question I had related to their technology. This is where I committed: Stupid mistake two: NOT asking more questions. I just wanted to understand the costs ASAP. So I did not dig deep into their previous projects and technology stack. The CEO was in general sounding like they would do 'everything' we would throw at her. I asked her the costs and she quoted me half the hourly rates I would pay to hire similar devs in my country. My partner and I thought that this was it. We were clearly not thinking straight, and were only thinking about saving the money. We asked them to send a proposal over to us with how much it would take to build the app. They sent us a proposal of EUR 8,000, which - given the features of the app, was pretty cheap. We decided to pick them. Stupid mistake three: Paying a lot of advance. We asked them to kickstart formalities. They asked for half the project costs in advance. We asked them to lower it but they were kind of insistent saying that they had bad experiences in the past, asking half upfront is why they have low costs, etc. We decided not to discuss more and agreed. They sent over a ten-page contract with conditions. We skimmed over it. There was one area where that kind of implied that they would ask for 'time and material engagement for third party APIs' and we agreed to it. We thought it may take only a few hours to do that, and we were prepared to pay for it. We wired the advance money to their account in India. Stupid mistake four: Not discussing the 'third-party API integration' The 'development' of the application started. If you're non-technical, 'third-party API integration' basically meant that they would be charging us whenever there will be a requirement of integrating something like, say, a payment gateway like Paypal. Again, we were fine charging for that. We set up a recurring meeting (scrum) every day to discuss the progress with the developers. This is where 'signs' of something shady going on started:
There were more signs but this would keep getting longer. After 10 weeks, we received an APK from the developers over email. I started that APK, a screen opened and boom: it crashed immediately. I emailed multiple times to the devs and their 'managers', but no response on that day. Got response from them that they were 'looking into it' the next day. After two days they sent another test APK. This worked but the UI was NOWHERE close to what they showed us initially. Like, absolutely nowhere close. Right after delivering the email, they sent over another invoice for the other half, plus additional 3 Thousand Euros for 'third party integrations'. We argued with them and they kept saying that this was what we decided on, etc. More enhancements would cost more. Keep in mind that we were already EUR 4000 in. So, because of sunk cost fallacy, we paid them the amount of money (at this point, we paid them like EUR 11K), and they showed us how they could improve the app more. We decided to continue on 'Time and Material' engagement and the meter kept running. I'll fast forward here: the later version of the app was crappier. It didn't work, looked horrible, and had hilariously bad UX. YES at this point we decided to take legal options. But unfortunately, our counsel advised us against it. In the end, we were left with -17000 Euros, hundreds of hours lost, and NO mobile app. TL;DR: Guys, don't outsource your app to scam companies. It is better to pay more and build it in-house.

Posted: 04 Mar 2021 12:52 PM PST My friend and I have always talked about potentially opening up a restaurant together in the future. We planned on starting with pop-ups this summer in Toronto, Canada if Covid-19 restrictions allowed it. We suddenly received an offer that I feel is a once in a lifetime opportunity. Someone we both are quite close with owns a commercial building at an up and coming neighbourhood in Toronto, major intersection with streetcars on both streets, high volume traffic with 2 condos 800+ units added to the intersection in the next 2 years. The space was previously a fast food restaurant and is around 1300sqft, has a basement, along with a second floor that is currently a vacant apartment and roof top patio. The individual has offered us the opportunity to start our restaurant in this commercial space in return for 5% equity in the company.Our concept revolves around a Wine Bar with a Scandinavian style interior at approximately 30-40 seating capacity. Menu concept is season-driven, locally sourced ingredients and contemporary small dishes and tasting menus. A great list of natural wines as well as the classics. Our main focus at the moment would be the main floor but if successful, we would like to expand to more seating on the second floor as well. I have been a Chef in the industry for 12 years working at fine dining establishments, hotels, corporate restaurants, and small 30-40 seat wine bars. My most recent position being at the 2 Michelin Star restaurant, Noma in Copenhagen and returning to Toronto to work as the Head Chef of a Wine Bar. My friend works in tech and has very minimal experience in the restaurant industry. He has a huge interest in food specifically wine and is currently enrolled in a Sommelier program studying under a Master Sommelier. He's been able to secure the commercial building rent-free and presented this opportunity to me. Together, we would have approximately 350-450K in starting capital from own-pocket/private family investors. A question for previous restaurateurs, would bringing on additional investors on the initial phase (before incorporating) be a wise decision or would we be able to stick to what we have and potentially bring on investors if the project exceeds our budget. Please let me know if I have missed any important information and thank you in advance for reading our story and giving us much needed advice!
Given that we are in a situation of being rent-free (sacrificing 5% equity) and being in a location with high volume of traffic (up and coming neighbourhood), are there any immediate red flags that stick out to you guys that would deter success? We understand that the planning phase and estimating P/L margins will be important when it comes time to execution but would love to hear other perspectives. [link] [comments] |
What is your "bible" for sales? Posted: 04 Mar 2021 12:36 PM PST Hi! You may have seen me here several times, but I am a 17 years old entrepreneur who started his web dev business in May 2020. I am still in the process of learning (I jumped head first, lots of maybe important things I missed). I got my first 10-12k$ in sales pretty easily, from leads I emailed one time or returning customers. However, I am starting to pick up new clients again and I am in a bit of a "bad" situation. I am not really that good with sales. I start to go a little bit everywhere in phone calls, I don't know the differents steps, I think my emails are not optimal, etc. For example, I had a barbershop that I contacted to offer them my services. They seemed enthusiastic about the whole thing, they told me they would think about it (talk about the whole thing in a meeting) and it's been a week. He told me he would call me back in the day, but he never called back. I don't know what to do, how to approach him. Do I send him an email asking him if he is still interested, what do I write in this email, etc? I have a rough time with sales. If someone could answer my question and maybe give me some ressoruces, either a free/non-expensive course or a great book, I would be more than happy to see that! [link] [comments] |
Can a food reviewer make an LLC and write off meals/travel? Posted: 04 Mar 2021 01:23 PM PST Hey all. I've been thinking about this venture and I have this simple question. I don't know if I'll be profitable ever, but I want to know if it's a good idea. I'm sure I'd be operating at a net loss for the first few months because I'm still trying to understand where the positive cash flow from this venture comes in. I'll be eating meals, reviewing the restaurant and uploading to YouTube/IG/Twitter. Thanks in advance! [link] [comments] |

"Sustainable Retail Industry" sounds a bit too long. Also, what other resources could I use to research this industry? thank you in advance :) [link] [comments] |

Somewhere to buy Outdoor Advertising billboards? Posted: 04 Mar 2021 01:39 PM PST Evening - I'm wondering if anyone knows where I can find a website that sells land for outdoor billboards? Literally, to buy the plot of land with an outdoor billboard on it? (UK only if possible?) [link] [comments] |
Bad advice.... or brilliant advice? Posted: 04 Mar 2021 01:29 PM PST Hello all, I'm a just launching a Law Firm with a partner, and I'm setting up the operational side of the business. Please let me know if this isn't the correct place for discussions/questions like this. We were given some advice from a Senior Partner at a previous Law firm. He was the sole equity partner of a large boutique firm. He had the firm set up as an S-Corp, and he had a personal S Corp that received the majority of the Profits from the law firm. The Personal S Corp also paid for most tangible (non-salary) expenses for the Law firm and charged the Law firm for those services. (Rent, supplies, catering, travel etc.) We were led to believe this was a really good tax strategy. For our current start ups, at this point neither company has any assets on hand other then invested cash and a small profit stream from the law firm. I guess it makes sense for assets to be held by one company and rented/leased to the revenue generating business, but what about other ongoing expenses (rent to a landlord, insurance, office equipment etc.) should those expenses and costs flow through the second company? Is there any benefit to that? Sorry for the "in the weeds" question, I'm just curious about how other people have set up service type businesses like this? [link] [comments] |

Rant: I’ve lost the plot of being an entrepreneur Posted: 03 Mar 2021 06:59 PM PST I now find myself in my mid 30's, aimless, and unemployed. I've literally been in the tech industry since I was 14 covering Steve Jobs keynotes in person as a reporter. I dropped out of college to join a startup with two of the former founders of Myspace at 19, watched them burn $50M and fail trying to compete with what is now YouTube / Google; I use to run social media accounts for Playboy, I've built and automated the recruiting department at a medical research facility. Launched my own startup, bootstrapped it to $1M in revenue and sold it for an exit. Went into consulting, worked for the former CTO of JP Morgan. Was mentored and taught enterprise sales by a former VP from IBM / VMware, and a former Wall Street executive. I've read or learned all the hard lessons of being a founder, advised countless startups, consulted on at least a dozen SaaS products, and most recently was a CMO at an open source competitor to Slack / Teams / Discord. Yet somehow I'm living off a PPP loan, trying to close more consulting contracts yet again, wondering where the fuck I went wrong? If I don't close a deal soon I'll be living off my Bitcoin and cashing out my other investments which I'm trying not to do. I really enjoy product marketing, and I'm fucking amazing at it, but the quality of CEOs I've worked with lately is at an all time low. Most of them don't even know what marketing is, and they're horrible storytellers. As much as I love being a CMO, it is one of the highest turnover positions unfortunately. Meanwhile, I've watched my peers like Neil Patel, who I used to partner with, become fucking huge by marketing themselves instead of others. But the reality is there's nothing Neil does that I don't know how to do. I just never did it for myself, I've always done it for others. I foolishly thought we still had free speech in this country and most my social media accounts have been censored because I'm a libertarian. Irony is most my views the majority of people agree with, it's just the powers that be don't. I have a massive network in Silicon Valley. Many of the major VC know me and went on my previous podcast, CEOs of major tech companies follow me, but refuse to fund anything I'm associated with or hire me. Frankly, most of them are assholes so it doesn't bother me that much, but they know I know my shit and still won't associate with me publicly (although they have no problem DMing or talking to me in private and talking shit). I've thought about jumping into Venture Capital, already have deal flow of startups I'm advising, but I'm watching all the founders I'm working with continually getting fucked over, and I just don't have the heart for it anymore. I would love to raise a VC fund myself but need partners with VC experience and capital connections I just don't have. I've applied to some major VC firms but they're ignoring me for whatever reason, probably because I have more experience then half the managing partners and they get intimidated by me. I know on one level I need to go back to the basics and probably should have just done what Neil Patel did by marketing myself, on another level I can just keep consulting (I have deal flow and deals likely to close soon, not posting this for deal flow), but I'm exhausted from the cycle of getting hired in, creating value, helping others get to the next level, then I have to move on and help someone else all over again without reaping any of the longterm rewards. I have researched information products extensively. Read all the books. Know all the formulas. But there's just something in me that just doesn't want to be that guy. It just feels scammy? Perhaps I just need to get over it. Where the fuck do I go from here? I don't want to start another startup myself, I don't want to start another podcast, I don't want another full time job, and I'm tired of consulting and advising without access to capital to invest. Thanks for listening to my rant. TLDR: I'm getting old, bored, and don't know where to go from here. I just want to go make a shit ton of money, go start a family, and peace out. ✌️ [link] [comments] |

Build in Public Podcast Zerotoscale Archive Anyone? Posted: 04 Mar 2021 12:15 PM PST Hello everyone, Someone recommended to me to listen to https://zerotoscale.com/ podcast as being one of the most raw day to day building of products by two entrepreneurs but unfortunately the podcasters took it down more than 5 years ago. Does anyone have an archive for the same? Does anymore recommend any alternate podcast along similar lines? I am not looking for high level strategy stuff. I am looking for raw unedited daily dairy of the building and growth. [link] [comments] |

Posted: 04 Mar 2021 11:29 AM PST To be honest I still need to study about AWS services. I'm actually Mechanical Engineering student but I want to work with programming in the future. Some months ago I did some projects with Python and SQL stuff and now I'm studying front-end programming. I was wondering what's something useful I can do with these $100 that could leverage me or even create a relevant service. PS: Yes, I know that there's an account that you can make to use their services for 1 years for free, but I couldn't make it because I don't have credit card (lul). PS2: I live in Brazil. Thanks!

Posted: 04 Mar 2021 08:42 AM PST Well, fuck. I don't know what to do. I am part field worker/office worker. However, they must have a guy that can also go in the field for 10 hours on a snowmobile when they need to. I'm still on probation... and I re-injured my knee when I was skidooing for work last week. That's why I started Frenchify.dev last week. I need a way to be able to work from home. My days are numbered, I feel. I'm a bit at the end of my rope here. Psycho-Boss told me that if I cannot go in the field and perform my duty, they might have to find a replacement. She is the psycho that I wrote a bit earlier last week. Most bosses would love to help me recover, or even provide an easier task. But she is a psycho – something well agreed here in our department – and she is in charge. I'm supposed to go in the field four times a month. I think that I'll be able next summer. But I don't want to bank on that. Is there anyone out there looking for someone to do some remote work? I can negotiate contracts, work with government to government agency, translate things to French, and generally the happiest mofo in existence. How can I help you? I'm going camping for a few days to reconnect with my higher self and Nature! How can I survive without a functional knee, in this cut-throat industry? [link] [comments] |

Posted: 04 Mar 2021 01:31 AM PST Hello, So I started a virtual agency and call center agency that provides foreign based agents to US based companies. How do I get US companies to use my service?
