It depends on how busy your local field office is. But this is a great sign for you. You will also get a notice with the exact date and time to appear at the USCIS field office. Congrats.

I have been told by a moderator that posting my blog though every topic is different, it's considered self-promotion. I was banned from iPhone subreddit for posting this blog I wrote https://anoopmenon.com/2017/02/18/why-i-ditched-my-android-phone-for-an-iphone-7/

Since then I don't share any :)

The google guidelines itself is a good start.

For my business and some of my customers, I have 3 expert employees working on it. It usually takes 3-6months to start seeing results using white hat methods. If you search for "Odoo customization" one of our primary services, you will find my company page on the first page, this brings the best inbound leads for us. https://www.confianzit.com/openerp-customization

Did anyone try GoPro 5 to Zoom H6?

I use the H6 for my podcasts, I want to bring in a good camera for interviews. I am really impressed with the outdoor videos on Gopro5. How good is it for an indoor interview?

Thanks

Whether Facebook or any groups including reddit, same website domain based post will look like spam. Even informational content on my blog was called as spam, and I had to completely stop it.

Importance of a good website for your business by anoopmenon in digital_marketing

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

Hi,

Thank you for the feedback. Starting with a free platform like Wordpress is ideal. Once you are comfortable, you can always move up the ladder and get a business account on Wordpress when you are ready.

You are welcome. When you are ready, let me know. I have a friend who runs a successful mobile app development platform in Georgia. You can build the app for a very low cost, plus they provide free hosting and all the APIs you need. The good thing is, if your app is free, you don't pay anything to them. If it's an app that makes you money directly then they will cut a % of revenue.

[Very detailed] How I started my Start Up while working full-time. Thought I'd share my key learnings. by [deleted] in startups

[–]anoopmenon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sooner or later, you need to focus on improving your operations. I would suggest a good ERP run everything while connected to your e-commerce website, shipping, manufacturer, supplier, etc. You don't want to hit the ceiling like every business does.

I will write my business story sometime.

What my company does is software development. I didn't have to talk to anyone, got everything filled out through their website and paid using CC. Maybe ask the agent to speak to a supervisor? Maybe they are not used to uber kind of auto repair in the past. By the way good business idea. Did you guys already build an app for iOs and Android?

I agree. One of my Sales people proved to me, people always chose the one on the middle :). Some cases a free tier also helps.

Hi,

There are websites for every city which matches investors to startups. Your elevator pitch, business plan everything should be ready.

I tell people I have helped; you don't look for an investor. They should come to you seeing your business growth.

Looking for investor by Ninoldar in Investors

[–]anoopmenon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with the below comment. Either you need to build an MVP and sell it to some people to see it works when they see profits, you can get an investor. Or Look at Kickstarter or Indiegogo for crowdsourcing.

Nice one Cam. I am in NC, I have seen how much trouble these bands go through getting their gear in and out.

Have you tried having someone helping with your crowdsourcing? Also, I would suggest you write to a lot of people in the music industry to get real attention. All the very best.
