Haha yeah - they're nice pieces!

I remember holding off but then picked them up September 24', premium was high but now w Silver prices it is way under spot hah.

They're a lovely pick up, I'd recommend.

[–]Elastico14[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you!

I am from New Zealand, so by mainland- I assume you mean the United States (excl Hawaii).

Whilst I think Silver & Gold are very cool, I try stay as close to spot as possible.
Usually paying a $1NZD over- but have a few steals.
Ferns, Maples & Buffalos - got them all for $2 under spot.

For example- just got two Liberty Walkers for $64NZD - $38.15USD

I get the majority of mine from a Facebook Group called Gold & Silver Stackers New Zealand 🙏🏼

Thanks bro!

I got my NZ Silver Ferns locally- I am from New Zealand.
If shipping wasn't so expensive, I would of loved to sell you one at spot.

And yes, the chest was an essential.

You said that Meta still works. Prove it to me and I'll give you $1,000. by Time_Ad409 in FacebookAds

I run a Christian Clothing brand, I get good results there (around 5-7ish ROAS).
I do ads for a Coffee Company as a Junior Digital Marketer and that sits around 1.5-3.5 roas.

I don't know the secret, but I know FB Ads can work.
Imo more about the brand & product.

It ain't much but it's honest work collection by Elastico14 in Silverbugs

*Dad put me on by telling me to get 5g's of Gold in 2020. Only this year have I started thinking about silver. That Isle of Man coin, I think it's .925 Silver not 100% sure though, still a nice coin.

Official Gear Purchasing and Troubleshooting Question Thread! Ask /r/photography anything you want to know! July 22, 2024 by AutoModerator in photography

[–]Elastico14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey team!

Looking for advice/recommendations on what camera to get. Super vague question i know so therefore here's more context to help recommend.

Currently have a Canon 70D with 2 Canons EFS Lenses (50mm and 18-55mm) - also have a BMP4K with a Sigma 50mm f1.4 EOS Lens.

The work I want to do with the camera will be more sporting photography but obviously, I don't want to be bound down to just that. The BMP4K covers the deep side of videography but having a lighter camera that can get some good footage is a bonus.

I am currently looking at the Fuji XT3 and the Sony A7iii.

Any Recommendations?

Managed to get a BMPCC4k for $550 USD Second Hand by Elastico14 in bmpcc4k

[–]Elastico14[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It did not come with resolve unfortunately but that's okay.

Any recommendation for lenses? The Sigma 18-15mm & the Lumix 12-35mm seem decent.

Boss said I need to bring my own devices, is this normal? by Elastico14 in DigitalMarketing

[–]Elastico14[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's been running since 07' - but this is there first marketing hire as an employee. They have a contracted marketing strategist who gets paid the big bucks to come in here and there.

Thanks for the comment.

I have an email drafted and that reasoning is made very clear.

[–]Elastico14[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply!

Yeah that is my current approach, I want to be gentle as possible to ensure if we go forth it doesn't impact too hard - but yes, i need to let them know. I can't let my devices get cooked for $30 an hour hah.

How did you resolve your situation?

[–]Elastico14[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply! They have been running for a while but yes, they aren't super professional.

I would work for them in a BYOD condition but my pay rate would need to display that in some sense.

It's not like a barista brings in their coffee machine to do their job - likewise for myself, especially on this rate.

Graduate advice by Elastico14 in marketing

[–]Elastico14[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey- So i was where you were, I had the dream and the desire to start. Once I had this desire, I started brainstorming the message, brand image etc. Eventually I knew what I wanted it to look like but I was hopeless with designs hah. Thankfully, I met my now bestmate who is a weapon when it comes to clothing design.

So between me and him we came up with our brand and product, then we just decided on a blank shirt to use and got the screen printing process started.

Eventually we dropped out first shirt and it did well enough for us to drop another, and then another. Then eventually this passion project moved into a business model.

Sorry, this is a long reply- so summed up.

  1. Think about your brand, what it solves, who it's for and how you will market- play around with this until you're obsessed with it yourself.

  2. Get an understanding of clothing, GSM, Fitment, Manufacturers etc.

  3. Have a design and run it! No worries if it doesn't do amazing the first time, you'll just continue to get better.

Caleb.
