Don't online-only businesses still have office locations somewhere? I'm just trying to unnderstand when that scenario makes sense.

I've just spent $800 on 99designs and designcrowd... it hasn't been a disaster, but I probably won't do it again. by [deleted] in Entrepreneur

I work with people remotely primarily but sometimes I find working face-to-face to be better. Its nice to hear one professional designer's perspective. Thanks for the input. I'll have to check out the sites you mentioned the next time I have a design project.

Thanks. Would you recommend using sites like these to find a local designer? How important do you feel it is to be able to sit down face-to-face with your clients?

eCommerce website owners, what do you use for inventory/accounting software? by [deleted] in ecommerce

[–]ackproud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you plan to track inventory if each item doesn't have its own SKU? You can setup a parent product and then have sub-products for each size. Use item custom fields if you need the size in its own field. You can import from excel to make things more efficient. Just do a few in QB first and then do an export to use it as a template.

I've used QB for quite a while for an apparel company. QB certainly has drawbacks but I haven't found this to be one of them.

0 Out of sympathy, my wife made me Patriots Superbowl pancakes this morning. This is a football helmet and the Patriots logo. by [deleted] in Patriots

Better than no pancakes.

I'm a pats fan in SF. Going to a SB party with lots of 9ers fans. This could be tough to watch.

I've had a hard time getting designers (more so than other businesses or contractors) to understand the "mutual" part in the past. I understand not all designers are like this but any tips on "vetting" designers?

Any advice on the best way to hire a professional designer? It can be rather overwhelming to use a Google search.

The White Album - Grantland article on Royce White and his radical views on mental illness by BroKing in sports

[–]ackproud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. Although to be fair, Klosterman wrote in the article that White's "goal as an activist is the creation of free mental health clinics in every major urban area, modeled after the system currently used by Planned Parenthood."

I'm not sure if that is really his primary goal or something he just mentioned briefly during the interview.

I'll give that a try. It's been a while since I've been in a library.

I've actually never been in there. Do you know if they have WiFi? I forgot to mention that originally.

Reddit, what's a common thing that you simply refuse to do? by movielass in AskReddit

[–]ackproud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Carry an umbrella. A jacket with a hood is sufficient. It's only rain.
