No offense, but I’m hoping more “Bulls” pop up in the jungle and create sections of the jungle that can utilize all this talent. Right now there is a fuck ton of smart people and not enough leaders like you, Ox etc. to harness it.
You've addressed this in past posts, but one corollary I'd add is that in business reputation is everything (even over pricing if you can deliver what you promise and the cheap guys can't). That's why it's imperative not to rely on your name but actually learn the transferrable skills you need to thrive in any pursuit.
So as we go more Anon, it's important for an avatar not only to build a loyal following, but also deliver quality content that yields results.
Your rebranding and switch to paid content is a great example of how to execute it (after only 3 months!), as that also concentrated your audience. You live or die by your reputation, so better help people achieve positive results.
P.S. How many posts have you written on your phone from the beach?
I know this should be commented on Q&A, but hopefully you answer,
1) I am a student, 18. Still in high school due to getting left back, However I do online with no students or teachers so I have access to a lot of time on my hands.
2) I want to get the books you guys have made.
3) I cannot because I don't have a school email due to being online
4) How can I get these books without a school email or ID>?
I'm curious why you consider video editing an "Infinite Scale Skills". Isn't it dependent on technology (introduction of virtual reality will completely change video ads and make you redondant) and immensely time consuming (meaning hard to scale)? Maybe I'm not seeing the full picture.
Old guy here. Lots of truth on this substack. Urgently enrolling my own youngsters in jungle education to complement the overpriced standard method. Keep it rolling. Love seeing young men searching and finding their way.
Sh*t, I have a good enough level of all those "infinite scalable" skills (and some others), but still struggling to focus on ONE thing.
So many opportunities out there. Hard to decide for one (or discard the rest).
I know, I know, it's an excuse.
I've got moderate success very quickly with absolutely every enterprise I've pursue. But never pushed the gas to the floor. The only limit has been myself.
Idk when or how, but I'll figure it out.
Sorry for the dissertation, but maybe can help to someone in a similar position.
I've realized that whatever that I want to do later it's easier to be done with money, contacts and the skills that you hone by following the money and grow.
I have unique life experiences which have taught me wise life/relationship skills. If people are willing to pay for a deck of cards to interpret their past, present and future, why not pay for objective and practical advice from ones who have “been there, done it” and figured out what works. I am not talking therapist, life coach, or specialist with a degree… I am talking general, broad knowledge from “how do I get out that stain on my shirt from the street tacos last night” to “ it’s my 7th anniversary and my partner says they don’t really want anything. Should I do nothing?” I am consistently being asked for advice. Time to make a return on it 🤔
I’m new to your substack & substack in general. Are there more details on the Q&A for helping us finding a direction to go for creating online business?
1. Go look on Eprollo for their hottest dropshipping products (DONT drop ship)
2. When you find a product that can be recurring in income, weighs very little(freight costs) and a relatively low cost - look for the same product being sold locally. For example we'll say the product is flavoured dildos.
3. You go on amazon reviews and reddit and search for "Flavoured Dildos". Try and find what people are complaining about (Hint, 3 star reviews tell you good and bad).
4. Now you found some problems (limited flavour, not enough grip, doesn't stimulate clit etc) next step is to test if the product sell.
5. You go to 1688.com and use google translate or fanyi.baidu.com to find dildo manufactures. Start communicating with them and see if they can manufacture what you require and find out the cost FOB. Then get a clearing agent on your side to give you a quote on getting the goods to you from China.
Work out all the cost + import duties, courier taxes etc and conclude if it will be profitable or not
6. So you conclude its profitable go to charm.io and search for "flavoured dildos" under products.
7. Now you have your competitors and you can view their ads. Once you find some good ads go to getspyder.com and rip their ads.
8. Use Kden to edit the ads, crop to remove logo. Use GIMP or Photoshop to make a grid png at 0.8% opacity. Throw that png as an overlay on the add.
Cut any sound that says the brands name and add a backtrack thats not copyrighted. Also speed up or slow down the video by a few seconds. All this is done to prevent FB algo from flagging the ad. Its also better to use ads from other countries than the country you will be selling to for this.
9. Create a landing page in such a way that when the customer checkouts it shows site down or out of stock. If you used WP use monstersights to collect data on how many people click on checkout. You should also collect their emails for later.
10.Run the ad you modified in step 8 on FB with similar copy as you competitors but adjusted and pointing out the benefits. The ad should point to your landing page.
This will be your final step in determining whether or not your Dildo business will be profitable or not.
11. If the Dildo ads have a high conversion rate then you proceed to buy your branded stock. If 50 people clicked the checkout button and left their email address to be notified of new stock.
You buy 100 units and slowly scale your business. At this point you should invest in making your own creatives.
12. If the ads had a shit conversion rate, back to the drawing board (step 1)
End of month you can ask anything you wish. So when that comes in just drop your specific question. Lots of rich people follow this website and many are kind enough to even drop some help. No one is going to hold your hand from start to finish but go look at the older post on our next biz opportuntiy and check the comments section, you'll see that there is a wide range of people willing to give pointers.
”BowTied” is like the blue checkmark for Degens
Ha we have a wide range in there it is looking good so far. Trying to think of ways to help more people bootstrap.
No offense, but I’m hoping more “Bulls” pop up in the jungle and create sections of the jungle that can utilize all this talent. Right now there is a fuck ton of smart people and not enough leaders like you, Ox etc. to harness it.
Not offended at all. We want anyone associated with this account to succeed why wouldn't we!

Respond to the next substack with your email and link to this post thx!

Courses online are repeatable and can be scaled globally. That is just one example of many. Since it is digital your reach is 7.8B people.

Never going to shoot 100% but we can control extreme levels of effort. We can stay autisitc for longer than they can stay awake!

Thanks for this post.
I'll prepare a proper Q for the next Q&A.
Follow the money and growth! That usually answers the question
Yes, will do that.
I've realized that whatever that I want to do later it's easier to be done with money, contacts and the skills that you hone by following the money and grow.
The ego should be out of the equation.
Thanks!
Rumor has it BowTiedQuoll is going to teach degenerates how to charge waves on degen island.
Maybe he already announced he’s the unofficial surf instructor is degen island.
Keep an eye out he’s probably getting tubed right now!
That's hilarious!
I have a kinda crazy business idea that I want to bounce off someone…. But it needs to be anon… Anyone? Anyone?
shoot

Google what you don't know or don't understand.
Great Post!
if anyone needs help with translation I'm a native mandarin speaker
Thanks for giving away all this free alpha. Damn!
LEGEND
Never heard of any of these sites. Going from the idea to the product to the sale is always hardest. Thanks for this info.
