My question is, how does one get to that position? I have good credit, a bit in my savings, and I consider myself decently knowledgeable in marketing.

Start a business and hire workers to do jobs that you arrange, once things are profitable enough hire an assistant to arrange the jobs / manage people
its called "starting a business" OP
Why don't you just make a shitty clickbait game to get rich /biz/?
You don't even have to know programming and they take just a few days to make if you're new.

op, you are asking us to do real fucking work, many of us don't enjoy. /biz only exists on the idea of generating the most out of no real work.

Hey /biz/, I want to start a web-based business and need to build a solid website for it. I'm pretty alright at web design but i want it to look like it was done by a professional so I want to hire one.
My concern is, what's to keep the person I hire from stealing my idea and making his/her own version of my website?
Is there any legal agreement they can sign? Or am I supposed to hope they have no interest?
I live in the United States if thats any help
You just got to trust that they wont. Lets just face facts no one is going to steal your shitty idea.
People steal my ideas all the time but i just do it better and they give up.
Is the happening happening soon or what?
No, American Express is losing some huge vendors. Costco signed a new agreement without them last year, swipe fees are plunging, and competition from VISA, Mastercard, Discover, and banks are pressuring them. That and they're not accepted everywhere.
Considering that clients that use American Express spend more, their clients are being poached by competition.

Has anyone here actually tried Tai Lopez's stuff?
I was thinking of trying his 67 day course thingy, however i don't want to dish out the money for it. If i find it for free i'll try it.
He seems to actually be doing good for himself (mind you i get a feeling he makes his money for the most part from that website and peoples interest in making money)
I'd quite like to know this as well. I've heard that he made a decent living prior to his paying for his services came about.
>>1040057
I'd like to see the lockergnome guy interview him.
As far as I know he made a decent living as an executive and gives advice that is in no way related to how he made his money.
Guys I don't have the time to obtain a formal education. I just want to stack bricks.. how do I go about this?
>>1031839
Even my ID is golden.
>>1031839
Call brick stacker and explain to him that you want to stack bricks.
Or start company and run add in paper saying "stacking bricks for money! Legofags need not apply"
>china ends it's circuit breakers

>meanwhile, the sell ban is still in place for most investors after being extended another six months yesterday

china's banks will need cash infusions in 4 months just watch
2% is hardly a sign of anything good, given the 7% fall beforehand. Dead cats will bounce.
>>1031831
It doesnt make sense to me. If the market tsnked +5% yesterday in the first 20 min of trading, why would those same sellers not want to sell the next day? I'm calling shenanigans.
>>1031838
because those sellers already sold, the bagholders are individual chinese citizens who aren't allowed to sell their shares for anothers six months
http://www.ft.com/intl/cms/s/0/150fc4aa-b426-11e5-aad2-3e9865bc6644.html#axzz3weNht2j3
The sell ban is separate from the circuit breaker, we would have had the sell off six months ago if the first ban was not put into place. That one was supposed to expire today but was extended to June. China is artificially constraining it's markets, because the CCP politburo seriously thinks this will somehow stop a crash.
Either China has a stock crash now and a mortgage meltdown (since in China people commonly use their homes as collateral for margin calls), or they cause citizens to go bankrupt and cause a mortgage meltdown as people go bankrupt and cause a bank confidence crisis.
I've got $45000 in the bank. I want to use it to make say $2000 a month with minimal effort. I don't like working and just want enough to pay rent and bills and enjoy myself.
Any ideas?
>>1039964
Where do you live?
I'd move to Thailand or some bullshit and live off like $500/month. You could probably get a nice ~5 years out of that.
I don't want to get raped by the ATO. They are always stealing money. Help me think of smart ways to make money.

yes it is , you need to start a company registered as a cam modeling company so you have a license to get payed by camming on any site you want so you can pay taxes on your earnings on sites like chaturba and cam4
there was a case of a belgian girl that got arrested for camming she didint have a license .

I have an interview in a couple of weeks for a firm that specializes in training new financial advisors/planners, which would be a great opportunity. Part of the year-long residency would be getting my series 7 and 66 certifications, which I honestly know almost nothing about.
Has anyone on /biz/ taken these exams? Are they easy or hard? I've always done well on standardized tests. I had a 33 on my ACT and when I thought about grad school I was in the 90th percentile for my GRE score. How much effort should I put into preparing for these if I do get the position?
>>1031656
Doesn't anyone on this board actually work in the fields they talk about 90% of the time?
>>1031656
And youre asking on 4chan? Any mug can pass those exams. It's the reason the industry is full of sharks. Its what you do with the skills afterwards that matters.
>>1031726
That's what I figured. I was just curious. I'm not looking to make a fortune, just live comfortably and help people with their finances. I'd be willing to bloodsuck from a few rich cows though if that's what it takes.
How do you sell other peoples products over the internet (aff. marketing) ViA YOUTUBE /biz/? seems like a legit niche.
like um; make a youtube vid promoting the vendors product and um provide link to vendors page, thats like basically it isnt it

Hello /biz/
Does anyone here make a decent income off of drop shipping? How long did it take to get where you are at?
>>1031440
I'm averaging $5 - $10 per sale by drop-shipping from reputable companies such as Walmart, Target, and Macys. I'm having to front a shit-ton of cash in order to get it done though.
>>1032456
5-10$ per sale is very good. Are you putting Walmart products on eBay and then shipping from Walmart to buyer directly?
>>1031440
>Does anyone here make a decent income off of drop shipping? How long did it take to get where you are at?
It's a margin business.
I used to sell a few things, but one I sold a lot of. I also can program and can sysadmin, but I was selling for a friend.
We sold one product which sold well. To dropship one cost $39.41 plus UPS shipping. To ship six to us was $36.01 each, and orders over $200 to our office from the supplier were free, so we got free shipping. I called and asked how cheap we could get this if we sold it a little bit more in bulk and got it for $35.53 each. That's a $3.88 difference, which is huge in this business.
They were also the cheapest reliable dropshipper. There were larger ones, but they charged more than $39.41 for our main seller.
Everything is margins, so dropshipping makes little sense usually. $35.53 us shipping it out versus $39.41 them shipping it out. You make money on saving pennies in this business so that's huge. We had competitors who got it for less than $35.53.
If you buy a lot of boxes from Uline, the more you buy the cheaper the boxes. The same with labels, tape, whatever. If you are billing tens of thousands in credit card revenue a month, you can get your fees lowered. And so on. Economies of scale is where the profit comes from.
Anyone can dropship from a dropshipper, that's why there's no money in it.
I usually dropshipped if I was on a trip or something and needed to ship items I sold, usually at a loss.
Sometimes I listed dropshipped items on my web site (or eBay) just to test consumer demand. Always at cost - which was still too high. Because those selling in volume were selling for cheaper than I could, and were still making a profit.
Another thing - as it gets going, very quickly you start to need a real warehouse, and someone to ship items out who is not you. This creeps up quickly - even selling 6-7 items a day can be a burden.
So /biz/ here's the situation. I have a small tile business. I know for a fact that the other tile business in town is KILLING it with google. They are bringing in like 2-3 job leads a week, I think from Google searches, and Google Ads.
I want to do exactly what they are doing. So do I just call Google Adwords line? Pay an SEO guy? What's the best way to do this shit?
>>1031359
negative yelp review and backlinks
>>1031373
So you're saying leave bad feedback for my competitor?
I don't wanna do that, and even if I did, I learned today you can get sued for that.
Mostly, my question is: Adwords, is it worth it, and what should I be paying?
>>1031408
definitely go third party SEO. from what I've seen, unless you have a lot of capital, google will not help you.
