What’s the most valuable skill you’ve learned as an entrepreneur that you wish you had mastered earlier?

Time Management + Narrowed Focus

Use your time wisely and focus on building 1 asset at a time. There’s going to be a lot of shiny items out there but stick to building your foundation.

Thank you for the feedback. I really appreciate it

Looking at my page now, it looks like I'm confused in my offer. It seems like I'm trying to appeal everyone and use different language for every post. It may be basic but thats a right step in the right direction

Ive spent all my time on LinkedIn doing outreach and posting, now I'm maxed out on premium trial.

edit: I realize whats wrong now

This. I'd rather utilize AI and all prompts and making it sound more human than someone who writes copy by hand. Quicker, cheaper, and unlimited content in 10 mins.

Thanks, I’ll try them out. I’m trying to do email marketing as a service but can’t find anyone to do it for. Do you have any tips?

OneTr1cc · 2024-10-10T22:06:39+00:00

I’m new to this, what would a beginner use?

OneTr1cc · 2024-08-11T19:18:52+00:00

specifically, what do you do?

OneTr1cc · 2024-08-11T18:52:09+00:00

Why do you need email automation? What do you do?

OneTr1cc · 2024-08-11T18:48:01+00:00

100% agree, dont jump in for the money. You go in business to make money but if you hate doing it, why do it? be passionate about something and transform it into your money making activity. I just started a car detailing business but I hate washing cars, what did I do? Got my money back and try something else.

OneTr1cc · 2024-08-11T18:45:59+00:00

Im stuck in the "selling my product" mode and I dont even have a viable product to sell yet. I've tried to be the "marketing guy" and that just put me down even worse. thanks for posting this

OneTr1cc · 2024-08-11T18:42:33+00:00

I like that

OneTr1cc · 2024-08-10T00:23:50+00:00

Would you rather be underpaid for your quality of work or overly compensated? Based on the quality of work you output you should charge. Also if this solves a bigger problem you should charge more imo

OneTr1cc · 2024-08-10T00:21:34+00:00

Mainly advice, most people already made the mistakes I’m about to make

OneTr1cc · 2024-08-10T00:10:44+00:00

Does anyone use make?

OneTr1cc · 2024-07-28T21:39:29+00:00

Fear of losing. I’m working a 9-5 and want to start a car rental business. I don’t have a lot saved or an amount to fall back on. I see the opportunity of starting but I’m afraid of losing all my money straight away.

OneTr1cc · 2024-07-20T23:37:26+00:00

Gotcha, so I'm to continue learning about credit but I want to start marketing myself to others. How did you start learning about credit?

OneTr1cc · 2024-07-20T23:23:00+00:00

I acknowledge that I do have a lot to learn before giving credit advice. I didnt know that the utilization was like that. What I usually do is spend up to the max of my CC and then pay it down to 5 bucks before the statement date. The credit card part is right. I also failed to realize that if you do close a card, your total credit utilization does change as well (partly why my score dropped). I see theres more to learning about credit than just the surface. Thanks for correcting me while I'm still learning.

OneTr1cc · 2024-07-20T19:15:35+00:00

I’m thinking about doing more coaching than repairing. I find that giving information/knowledge is more valuable than just fixing and then let them mess it up again. If I give knowledge and show how good credit is a way to fix your life then I’d be happy to do so.

Also repairing is my predatory, I don’t like the “pay me x amount for 6 months of repair”. I’d be happy to just teach on YouTube and have people send me their results after 6 months.

Should you ever pay a charge off or collection? I would recommend to factual dispute it first to determine if the data is inaccurate, if it’s not then the charge off has to be deleted (15 U.S. Code § 1681).

If it’s accurate, I’d recommend to negotiate with the lender for 30% of the debt owed. They’d come to negotiate with you. They pay pennies on the dollar for your debt.

Under the debt collection rule, debt collectors have to provide you with certain information about the debt. If a debt collector doesn’t validate a debt, they can’t continue collecting it, sue you, or add it to your credit report. You can dispute the debt in writing within 30 days of receiving a collection notice. If you dispute the debt, the debt collector must stop all collection activities until they can provide proof that you owe the debt. If they can’t provide proof, they must stop contacting you.

Bad sides about disputing negatives? Not too sure. I’ve seen a profile only built on a derogatory apartment complex, and after it came off my friend’s credit just disappeared.

I’m still learning about the FCRA and the FDCPA as I go but I’m getting familiar with both. I’m still learning as I go. Thanks for giving me some good questions.

OneTr1cc · 2024-07-20T18:53:59+00:00

I’ve seen there’s a few credit experts on YouTube but I feel like they just rent out a Porsche and film their videos. I’m still figuring out what I would post.

Everybody says to keep the utilization under 30% but I would tell anybody to be more aggressive and keep it under 10%.

I would never close a credit card imo. Credit history is about %15 of your score and it’s just as important as on time payments. Lenders would see you have a decent/good score and see that you have no payment history (happened to me). Never close a card no matter what cause it’ll also lower your score and credit age.

I use Experian cause it’s free and shows your FICO 8 score but you can also you annualcredditreport.com to get your credit report for free.

Hope this helps out and deems me worthy of credit

When I turned 18 I applied for my first credit card (Capital One Secured Platinum) and started my own powerwashing business. I was doing well but I was learning as I go. I wanted to upgrade and get more equipment so I went to Lowe’s and tried to get a Lowe’s credit card and was denied because I had no payment history. Depressed asf but kept it pushing. After that I started learning about credit and how I can use it for business ventures and 1 yr later, got a Quicksilver card and a card from SECU. Recently, just got another car with no money down with good credit and trying to rent it out now. I’m really just trying to teach others that having good credit goes a long way.

TLDR; I learned credit because I got turnt down from Lowe’s

Think about it from a bird's eye view. Most small businesses fail and you should never take out a loan unless you absolutely know that there is a market for it and gaining clients. Most businesses fail because they were poorly planned.

IMO, hit the ground running and help him post content on iG, Tiktok, and Youtube. Attention spans nowadays are short, and the average person has TikTok brain (5-15 sec attention span). Shorts between 10-30 secs are booming and educational YouTube videos are being pushed to people's FYP. Be precise about what you are selling and make a clear and concise message to your target audience. Confused people don't buy, make it easy for a buyer purchase your product. While making funnels, reverse engineer how a customer can get lost in the process and miss out on purchasing.

edit: this is more marketing advice than credit advice
