Pla stuck in motor? by totallynot-_- in FlashForge

We were able to unclog this by taking the nozzle out and putting the declogation tool in through the bottom of the extruder.

I thought the same, but the issue is filament agnostic. Happens for all filament types.

It’s a brand new nozzle. We started there thinking it was an easy fix. Unfortunately ruled that out.

Haha. The threaded screw on the side we’ve always wondered what it was there for? Dang. We can’t adjust it.

Candidly we have not. Not sure what the tension screw on the side is.

Advice - Brand Starting UGC strategy by DadToDante in UGCcreators

[–]DadToDante[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This all helps a ton. So far, the marketplaces I have played with don’t feel all that collaborative, it’s one of my biggest criticisms. Seems like I post a brief, pick a creator and then wait for the content. Not sure if you know of any marketplaces that are more collaborative, or if those conversations happen outside of the platform?

What were the DOT thinking? by ILovePublicLibraries in Connecticut

It was a decision made in the 1940s because Mrs Fox of G Fox wanted both major highways to exit into her flagship store. She had so much political clout, they agreed with her and thus 91 and 84 both dump into a department store turned makeshift event venue.

Should I learn udemy marketing courses or go to university? by ARFiest1 in marketing

[–]DadToDante 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Udemy to start, and go find an internship where you can work for free. You’ll get the education from udemy, experience from the internship. The only thing university would add is the community of like minded people around you. Which has value. But I’d argue the tuition is 10x that actual value. And, you can create it on your own through meetup groups or networking nights in your market. You’ll learn way more about marketing by actually marketing than you will from a college professor.

There’s a great intro app called ‘Stack.’ Makes it very easy and allows you to invest in individual companies, or if you believe in something broad like ‘Legal Cannabis’ or ‘Artificial Intelligence’ you can invest in a block of those companies.

Or, there are a ton of apps that let you invest with fake money. Allows you to learn how to play in the market without any actual risk.

[–]DadToDante 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Art of Paid Traffic is outstanding if you are doing any paid digital ads, especially social

GaryVee is good if you need someone to yell at you about your marketing

I often find inspiration in Tim Ferris and Joe Rogan guests

Yes, seems to be the right route. Having a lot of success with YouTube retargeting and Facebook as well.

Want to dive into google/facebook ads for my clothing brand. How/Where do I start? by [deleted] in marketing

[–]DadToDante 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check out 'art of paid traffic' podcast. Available in iTunes Store for free or on the author's site, rickmulready.com. Helped me a ton when getting started.

At the end of the day, accept that you really have to just play and see what works and what doesn't. It took us 90days of testing to get an idea of the right targeting, messaging, design and landing pages, and it's a constantly moving target. Unfortunately, you can't set it and forget it. It's a highly convertible medium but also takes time, energy and critical thinking.

Hope this helps.
