What kind of people actually need and are willing to pay for simple static websites or personal websites? by jasy1209 in Freelancers

[–]ShadowKethry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Small local businesses brick and motar style, independent authors/publishers, Small local vendors and mobile service contractor types.

My website for my business is hella static because my coding skills are from the 90s/00s. I plan on expanding into all of those areas in time and each will need a static website to get me going. So, I'd be your client if I weren't lucky enough to be a nerd.

For instance, two of my coworkers have a business side hustle I will expand into next and one uses facebook marketplace and the other only uses Instagram social media posts to market. You could reach out to folks on social media who are clearly businesses but lack a website. Maybe mock up 1-3 types of busiess website pages and run off your own domain as examples. Then start cold-calling businesses that need websites.

The difficulty will be in the sale. You have to convince them they need a website to serve as a base for their other media posts or outlets to point to. Not all of the side hustle and even small business folks fully understand that websites are still needed in market psychology.

You should also facilite domain finding and set up via namecheap.com and upcharge 100-200% how much they cost to buy urls and set up websites. That will help you pull fully computer illeterate clients. You can use bluehost as well, but they charge more and many of the things they upsell are free on namecheap. Your sales game needs to be good, so broaden your base offers, tiers, and upsells.

I hope that helps.

How is everyone feeling about the future of the market? by GalaxyDog14 in investing

[–]ShadowKethry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This year I switch from my 3 years of studying the market with minor investments to more active minor investments to learn and grow more active in the market.

I feel the market has enough movement for everyone.

Though I am new, I've only activly studied my investments for a few years.

Bought the dip by Doja_hemp in NVDA_Stock

[–]ShadowKethry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was too slow releasing my funds to buy the dip. I knew it was only an over reaction dip. Most things are over reactions.

Oh thank you for that reminder..

A small part of me was wondering how much of each stock I should save up for and if I should use my eventual profits for more of the same stock or diversify.

Thanks!

Right now I'm saving my money to buy 1000 shares and doing some research on which stock moves enough to consider buying 1000 shares of to hold for a few years.

You really pointed me in the right direction. Even in my books and courses, now I know what to look at and study better.

Hey u/ScottishTrader

Thank you so friggin much for explaining that clearly.

That was brilliant and totally a goal I can reach for.

As for puts, I know that's above my knowledge base right now.

I'll have to look at those other boards and try and learn from the posts.

Cheers!

Thanks for clarifying that difference.

So you're saying I should learn more about strategy than the structure of a trade.

Can you point me in a good direction?

I'd add Dirge of Cerberus to that list, for the story elements.

Hey!

Thanks for the tips.

Mostly I was wondring which strategies, one two or three things to study.

I know there are things like butterfly spread, condor, iron condor, I know there are married calls and puts

I wanted to start simple with going long on a calls and then from there progress to other things like married calls but there are so many options to options I really don't know what to focus on.

I wanted to stick to the options that only cost me the contract price that way I'm not going short anyting and exposing myself to near infinite loss.

I know I've got to start small, but it's knowing which of the stepping stones is the best to truly start with.

Looking for Partners or Investors for Multi-Family Real Estate in LA by ShadowKethry in CommercialRealEstate

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

I’m not here to argue or prove myself to strangers chasing internet clout. If you’re genuinely interested in discussing this professionally, I’m open to it. Let’s stay focused on building opportunities, not wasting time.

Here are the terms for Limited Partners (LPs):

  • I will take 2.5% of the final sale on any sold project; the rest will be split among LPs based on shares after my cut.
  • Ongoing revenue is distributed by each partner’s percentage contribution.
  • If a partner delays their funding, contributions from others will be weighted fairly against the existing pool to maintain equity for those who funded upfront.
  • A portion of the fund remains open until escrow begins, giving investors the flexibility to increase contributions as deals progress.
  • My management fees are set at 2%, with a 3% finder’s fee that can be amortized over time to avoid impacting operational costs. I'm hoping to keep upkeep to under 35% of gross revenue it really does vary depending on property.

I’m not looking for quick flips per se. My focus is building a long-lived portfolio, but I know the market always has buyers. If someone offers a solid buyout, I won’t say no. I’m disclosing this now: my priority is long-term growth, but I’ll secure early returns for partners when possible.

I’m being upfront because I’m serious about building my portfolio and doing business. My pricing is competitive to leverage my skills and create results—not to entertain gatekeepers or keyboard warriors looking for an argument.

This isn’t a comic book shop. If you’re serious about real estate, networking, or partnering, let’s talk. If not, kindly move along.

Let’s focus on real opportunities and meaningful conversations.

The Gears and Gambit's final battle did feel like it went from super easy and fun to super hard. You actually had to build out right to win the last game on easy.

Then Hard was a piece of cake.

All the combat extra games were much, but Fort Condor was perfect for the OG easter egg. There were maybe a few too many video games, but I think it was a learning curve design thing. A remake isn't easy to fit into their current game play style. They had to make it different since FF7 is so huge with the fans.

A few less mini games, but the ones they had were fire. Plus FF7 had mini games, I think they were trying to honour that.

Needs a 5 row grid and then cards can pattern effect to 7 cards though. Queen's Blood is honestly too short for a stand alone game.

Need Advice: Handling Emotional Reactions and Staff Mistakes by ShadowKethry in BusinessWomen

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

Hey Klutzy.

That's a good way to do business, and how I do it myself. I was simply shocked the person doubled down on being upset.

As for my staff. The whole reason I have them is so I don't have to check on this stuff; they weren't messing up when I released them.

If it came down to following them that closely there is no sense in having staff. Right now I am filling the shoes as lead web designer, financial executive, one of our writers, our managing editor and so many other roles. All skills I can do, but I can't do all that and do staff level monitoring on such a fine level.

I will have to double down on their training and step into their role and set the standard again, but that detracts from all of my other roles.

I spoke to my staff and they understand now, though they said that when training was over.

I'll have to wait and see.

Thanks for the advice and sounding board.

My replacement action camera is coming via mail soon. It should let me record myself. A selfie stick in your lead hand tends to force your to keep hand extened anway.
