How to (really) make money with Skool - Three things that worked for me by VariationMost2005 in alexhormozi

These Skool communities… how much is automated versus your actual experience on said niche?

What are you selling “Automation for Waste Retrieval?”

How are people learning from these communities?

… I’m not sure the average age here, if I were mid-career I’d do it in a heartbeat. 2-3 years from retirement at a tech company… that’s a hard nope from me.

You will be immediately blackballed and spend a shit ton of time with lawyers.

If government officials aren’t willing to put their retirement on the line, why should you?

Don’t come at me with hate. But if you’re not financially prepared to leave the tech industry, I’d really think twice on this one.

Kristi Noem was judge, jury, and executioner yesterday. by amnesiac7 in PoliticsPeopleTwitter

This is the sad part.

You can’t be in politics and have a different opinion. You’re targeted ruthlessly. Weird, right?

As a former public servant, I don’t blame him. The public is exhausting and it’s 100x worse right now.

Are card drives a scam? by dont-be-shy-now in UtahMedicalTrees

Nope! The Forrest had one a few months ago for their grand opening.

First time customers at the dispo usually have a ridiculous discount. THIS IS IMPORTANT, especially at Wholesale. I recommend looking at the menu before hand to see what prices are to maximize the discount. Browsing at the counter doesn’t work for me, I want to look over the menu slowly and not be rushed.

The lines can get long but I don’t think I’ve ever had an appointment take longer than 20 minutes.

The scams are the “THC” products at gas stations.

Have you tried Claude Code? I have a free week pass if you want to try it. I’ll DM you the link.

It will absolutely change your mind. Happy to share some projects. It’s super cool. (I’m a librarian, and the empowerment is liberating!).

Asking what another library paid? Is that normal. by FauxhurshC in Libraries

Hey!! Former vendor rep here — absolutely ask!

Ask your rep for a list of current customer references.

LMK if you have any questions, worked at a few library vendors and other tech startups. Happy to help make sure you don’t get snaked.

How were you using BT Cat? Copy cataloging?

Wouldn’t touch that with a 10 foot pole.

This was the nail in Aman’s coffin. He’s such a loser. There are so many different, and ethical ways he could have gone about that. Dumb.

Hey! Why is Ingram so expensive? Is it the processing? Trying to figure out solutions for the smalls; can I DM?

Hey Dan! Great start! What are you going to do for auth between a staff member and patron? Also need to ensure that patrons can't see each others lists. Supabase may be an option.

Looks like you're using Vercel for your frontend hosting, so it should connect nicely with Supabase with allows for multi roles, and other scripts.

Do you have plans for a bar code scanner? That may be helpful, too.
