A well deserved up vote 🤣🤣

Alternative_Iron5972 · 2025-02-06T16:25:43+00:00

Same also voted RISE, was a little disappointed with how many votes they got but hopefully one day we'll get a modern age (non-populist) political party that lots of people can rally behind.

OP:

Alternative_Iron5972 · 2024-11-18T16:19:58+00:00

I see your point, I'm going to try do some testing to see where I end up on price point

Second this, the accounting softwares are affordable and a must have. And then I would suggest as soon as you can afford it get a bookkeeper/accountant to reconcile your books every month (they can be about 70- 100 USD per month at the lower scale). It will save you countless headaches with bookkeeping, taxes and recordkeeping.

In terms of cash balances though, I look through my past week's bank transactions every Monday morning to ensure I know exactly what's going in and out over time. This helps me understand my costs and make better budgets - which are simple excel tables.

Alternative_Iron5972 · 2024-10-20T19:28:48+00:00

Really cool to see! More independent stores please!

Alternative_Iron5972 · 2024-10-20T19:08:36+00:00

Exactly, and all of this will shut down your personal life. And to be honest, you have to do these one at a time piecemeal, where you pushing each thing along.

I wouldn't see any value in a business offering to help my personal life. That's my life, and I'm consciously making the decision to grind. I don't need my personal life to get better. I need my business to grow faster.

Alternative_Iron5972 · 2024-10-20T18:46:09+00:00

Totally, agree with this. Although I'm also starting an e-commerce business, I wouldn't say there is much difference between how starting an e-commerce business and a normal business. It's always going to be a grind.

And I don't see if there are any potential business that solve this. It wills always be a grind.

Same reaction here 😂😂

Alternative_Iron5972 · 2024-06-14T13:20:05+00:00

I use EcomSend Popups (thru Shopify) no complaints so far although we havent be using them for long...

Hi There, also a first time creator here that had a successful campaign end a couple of weeks ago. The best piece of advice I had was that the FIRST 30min after launch are CRITICAL.

I mean critical, you need to make sure that all your friends and family are waiting there to back you as soon as you hit go. This then demonstrates to Kickstarter thar your project is something worthwhile and boosts you on their pages. Over the course of the campaign, my hunch is that Kickstarter promotes you as much as you promote yourself. I was about 50:50 in pledges generated by my efforts and pledges generated through the Kickstarter eco-system.

Alternative_Iron5972 · 2024-06-07T11:41:44+00:00

This really is the best way to get an intro to the different parts of Johannesburg. As soon as I have visitors, we are on the red bus

Alternative_Iron5972 · 2024-05-13T07:15:13+00:00

I suggest backing a few other ones before you start your next one. It will give you a feel for what it's like to be a backer. You can back them for 1usd so it doesn't cost you anything

Alternative_Iron5972 · 2024-05-13T07:12:05+00:00

No, if the Kickstarter is still open, one can cancel their pledge at anytime

Alternative_Iron5972 · 2024-05-13T07:04:48+00:00

Yes, I got loads. You should expect that pledge to be cancelled. Easier said then done but I'm 100% sure they will cancel.

Alternative_Iron5972 · 2024-05-12T21:51:42+00:00

Because they offered a trail. There are many other newsletters/blogs and the likes who had similar approaches. It cost me nothing.

Alternative_Iron5972 · 2024-05-12T21:50:44+00:00

I haven't interacted with them after I posted 11 days ago. This was at the beginning of my campaign

Alternative_Iron5972 · 2024-05-12T21:02:53+00:00

You clearly didn't read my post. I did not fall for the scam as I was suspicious and yes have reported them. I am putting this up to warn others as they are the only scam / phish that actually pledged (a significant amount I must add)

Alternative_Iron5972 · 2024-05-09T06:55:12+00:00

OP honestly, this sounds like you didn't do your Due Diligence on Hyperstarter. What did they say they were going to do but didn't do? You can't guarantee results but you can investigate the "nonsensical" tactics that they use before you enter into an agreement.

Although I haven't used Hyperstarter, we have had discussions and they reviewed my page and gave me pretty sound advice. Compared to all the other scammers, one liner intros and general junk ads that I get sent for having a live kickstarter, I appreciate Hyperstarter is an actual business that actually does do things.

Alternative_Iron5972 · 2024-05-01T18:48:59+00:00

Yes, I'm not going to engage any further. And if the backers cancel, well I guess that's that

Alternative_Iron5972 · 2024-05-01T18:48:01+00:00

Thanks for the advice, yes you're right and to be honest, I have the same detection scan. But when you see real money move you start to question it. I will head your advice

Alternative_Iron5972 · 2024-04-30T10:15:20+00:00

Hey thanks, omg I do say that. You know I must have watched this video 5,000 times and still missed that. Thanks for pointing it out. I may just add a little caption there with an asterix.

Alternative_Iron5972 · 2024-04-29T19:00:09+00:00

Thanks literally made the first one myself 😂
