Don't overthink your business name.

I named my company after an inside joke 😂

@UncleIroh I agree

I specifically started a service biz because I knew it would be easier to get off the ground.

Looking forward to your announcement!

Thanks! @UncleIroh

I see what you mean now.

It's a productized service so kind of a hybrid. Ex.

You get X deliverables per month for X $$.

It took alot of experimentation but I'm FINALLY getting some traction.

I would highly recommend starting your own even if it's just part time.

"Run a meetup for the last 7 years which is also a good PR exercise. "

Genius! I'm stealing that idea.

I'm having a hard time networking so that would be a great help

@VeganMGTOW That does sound like fun. Outside of the bullying of course.

Still hard for me to imagine a time where conservatives were in power

@YoMomz Great quote, thanks for sharing your experience!

@AKEmon869

Just a few off the top of my head:

1. BEST resource start your company step-by-step (in USA):

llcuniverstiy.com

2. Keep your costs as low as you can until you're making $$.

My startup costs were about $500

3. Find a way to charge monthly because getting new clients is a hassle.

4. COMMIT. It took me about >350 proposals to get my 1st client.

5. Don't tell anyone about your biz when your start. People hate on what they don't understand.

Good luck!

Thanks! @[email protected]

As for #3 now that I've pivoted to a monthly service it's less of a grind now.

I wanted to be transparent with all the people saying starting a business is easy.

It may be easy to start a biz but client acquisition is TOUGH.

@UncleIroh I have a marketing company.

What separates me from my competitors is speed (thanks to AI) and customer service.

@Scubbie @UncleIroh Don't even go there!

Were the 90's that great or are boomers wearing nostalgia goggles?

Bagel theory:

The reason why youtube removed the option to filter by oldest video is to make it harder to detect organic youtubers from gov shills.

Normalizing sexual degeneracy around children is not something to make a podcast about.

It's something you make the NEWS about.

But it's alright I'm sure they'll sue their way out of this

All urinals should be BOWL 🥣 SHAPED!

I'm tired of people saying the government is lying about Ukraine.

Haven't you heard of the power positive affirmations? 😂

What I like about having my own business:

1. NO VACCINE! 😃 Literally the reason why I started lol

2. I get to work whenever I want, with who I want, wherever I want.

So no more:

Envious/passive aggressive coworkers
Micromanaging
Pretending to work

3. People treat me with more respect.

4. Paid by project > hours.

What I don't like

1. Cheap/Retard ass clients

2. Taxes are a pain!

3. Prospecting - constantly sending proposals, getting ghosted and following up with leads can be a pain.

You guys GPT4 has my HYPE!

I already made some $$ thanks to GPT3.

GPT4 is gonna make me even richer🤑

@Stahesh True.

Mass stabbings are crazy.

Are criminals that fast or are people in enclosed spaces they can't get out of?
