ugc content craze is one of the dumbest business moves ever 1. company desperate for users. pays for unprofessional slop visibility, with the promise of conversion 2. ugc creators are forced to create insane amounts of videos everyday, which associates the brand with slop

@flowidealism such a good competitive advantage. because that skill is being slowly diminished with time, as everyone who is constantly interacting with AI becomes less human.

Schools need a massive overhaul. Whether learning styles are helpful for kids or not, the point here is that the current way of teaching is ineffective. Learning style matching embedded into the curriculum or not. Clearly schools don't work.

a little here and there....you just have to sell yourself as being the absolute best. like yeah I'm 18 but I know this topic better than anyone you've ever talked to. because I've studied it everyday for the past __ years. basically just have to prove that age is meaningless in my experience!

Just finished pitching at BNI yesterday. Got warm leads instantly. Will now be prepping to pitch a stump removal biz owner over lunch. In-person networking is the highest ROI way to prospect and grow your business. As an 18 y/o skipping college, am glad I learned this now!

69 acres of private Tuscany for €690k ($797k). The land includes an olive grove, a fruit orchard, a cork oak grove and 20 hectares of woodland. A natural spring produces 3,000 litres of water a day, solar panels cover the electricity and yes, it does have wifi. It's also been renovated, 370m² (3,983 sq ft) across 3 floors, 3 beds, 3 baths, with a pool and a sauna. 50 km to Volterra. Off-grid, self-sufficient, sauna, pool..what's missing here?

hating on another generalist AI launch is a sign of high IQ. tricks far too many people into thinking they've got something that can solve all their problems. i.e. lovable's new "ai for more general tasks". we don't need any more damn marketing analysts lovable!

@sweatystartup I wish more people thought this way. my mom, who is a doctor, insists on returning things for like $20. I suppose not being an entrepreneur maybe isn't the same your time is worth $$$ but man it doesn't make sense how she'll go through the hassle and wasted time all for $20.

@sweatystartup great tips, thanks man! super beneficial to someone like me who is a teen entrepreneur and has to jump straight into hiring. goals are to be able to have enough value to successfully recruit the 10x'ers from other companies...should be able to get there within a year.

@EXM7777 I couldn't agree more. seems obvious that everything saas is oversaturated, and the move is to instead build boring businesses that are staffed with the softwares that already exist. and scale that
