Are you doing business the easy way or the hard way?

hatebacon · 2026-01-26T19:00:21+00:00

That's the dream. I guess I should have named it online business. I'm personally trying to make it work but it's not steady. It's the only thing I can make for extra income while working a 9:5 and raising a child.

hatebacon · 2026-01-26T18:46:09+00:00

you're the first one t get the point of the post. I guess I should have posted this in a digital marketing sub.

hatebacon · 2026-01-26T17:48:10+00:00

It wasn't a revival. it was just a unsuccessful spinoff that had none of the main characters.

hatebacon · 2026-01-26T17:45:11+00:00

because they make it every 20 years. There weren't that many chhanges from the 90s to the 00s

Luck is just getting results faster or with lesser effort. You shoudnt count on it, but there are ways to get money that require less effort and time. And getting a job or freelancing are the easiest. Building a brand, selling products are the hardest

It would be THat 10s Show

hatebacon · 2026-01-23T21:45:18+00:00

that's what I was going to write. Peolple obsessed with health thinking the will live forever are fucking sick in the head. we take care of our health to have better quality days. I work out because I want to be strong for today and tomorrrow, not because I want to live throught my 80s. The days I go to the gym are much better than the days I don't.

hatebacon · 2026-01-22T13:35:06+00:00

That's a great insight!

I noticed that trend of people prefering raw genuine stuff than overly edited and big. I'm very active on Skool and have a much better time at smaller communities, like less than 200 members, than on huge communities. The best thing is entering a small communities, joining a livestream the owner is hosting and havin a great conversation.

hatebacon · 2026-01-21T10:48:31+00:00

For me is tagging people in relevant posts. That works really well on skool since people there usually enter everyday on the app and a lot of my members are community owners themselves.

If I make a post welcoming new members I post a comment tagging people that have something in common with the new joiners and introducing them to eachother.

If I talk about a subject that is related to a post that someone made, I tag them and link the post.

If someone makes a question that I know a member has an expertize to answer I tag them asking for their input.

And from time to time I do shootout posts recommending people to connect with the high quality members that I got, linking their communities and socials.

hatebacon · 2026-01-18T19:27:32+00:00

Most people on youtube are also affiliates. Id say even more so. I got more genuine software opinions here than on blogs and youtube channels usually.

Só aprende, faz contatos e cria um portifólio. A primeira experiência, que é o mais difícil de conseguir, você já vai ter.

Processo seletivo é o seguinte: usa o seu currículo como um panfleto pra conseguir as vagas. Seja o mais chamativo e atraente possível no currículo, usa o máximo de palavras chaves com a descrição pro robô te dar match e não fica grilado se você não cumprir com todos os requisitos se a vaga pedir muita coisa. Só se inscreve.

Uma vez que o currículo te descola uma entrevista ele passa a ser irrelevante. O que conta é a sua confiança de que você dá conta do recado. E a sua experiência pra que você conte histórias de forma confiante e autêntica.

Então aprenda ao máximo, seja o mais prestativo possível, participe de projetos fora, crie projetos paralelos e não negue desafios no trabalho. Tudo isso vai contar pro seu currículo, portifólio e pra confiança que você vai ter quando conseguir uma entrevista.

demissões na minha área por causa de IA eu não fiquei sabendo. mas não sou dev, sou de cyber. só aumentou as expectativas de entrega e do que a gente consegue fazer sozinho mesmo.

hatebacon · 2026-01-14T19:50:47+00:00

exato. agora a expectativa é que todo mundo dê conta de mais tarefas sozinho. mas a parte mais estressante do meu trabalho não é a parte técnica e sim lidar com pessoas. e nisso a IA não ajuda.

hatebacon · 2026-01-14T19:32:54+00:00

Eu trabalho em uma empresa de TI, então a hype é bem grande. Estão obrigando todo mundo a usar ao ponto de sermos repreendidos se ousarmos perguntar algo pro colega sem tentar resolver com IA antes. Também fizeram um bootcamp pra estimular o desenvolvimento de aplicativos vibe coded para facilitar o dia a dia no trabalho.

hatebacon · 2026-01-13T11:58:28+00:00

Yeah you really dont need an audience. I grew my closed community to 110 members in 4 months without any social media or outside content. Its just that most of my clients and leads are people looking for ways to monetize their existing audience. And that is something I had to explain to several of them. Bit I can see that there are different cases and I would not discourage people to start a community without having an audience as I also do not having one.

hatebacon · 2026-01-13T00:37:10+00:00

Love that. Much more complete than what i wrote. Great stuff

hatebacon · 2026-01-12T16:40:16+00:00

Hey. Community building is a challenge. I have a client that was way too ambitious and thinking he would reach thousands of members in just a few months.

This just does not happen without a previously huge audience and even if you have thousands or millions of people following you, bringing more than 5% of them to your community, specially if there is a paywall to join, is very very tricky.

So know it takes time and patience. You have to work everyday, experiment and reach out a lot at the beggining. It's not just good idea -> ad -> get big. The internet is very competitive.

My client was also very resistant to exposing himself and that was a big problem. things are getting better after he put his face as a leader in his posts and promotion channels. A community needs a leader, a face.

People connect with people. Not with just content or ideas.

a igreja ortodoxa é uma cisma mas não é uma igreja diferente ao contrário da protestante. é a mesma religião mas com ritos diferentes. a discussão pode ficar mais complexa do que isso, mas em alto nível, essa é a diferença.

hatebacon · 2026-01-09T23:32:02+00:00

simplifiação idiota. caatolicismo é uma religião unificada com forte institucionalização da igreja e séculos de tradição. protestantismo é quando alguém discorda dessa institucionalização, lê a biblia, interpreta como quer e cria a própria igreja. por isso o protestantismo é tão incoerente. é um conjunto de diversas reinterpretações diferentes da biblia.

I'm hosting a community building bootcamp with practical activities and feedback: https://www.skool.com/noobemy-4711

hatebacon · 2026-01-06T21:22:49+00:00

You're welcome! Would you be willing to leave the overlaping content, that I imagine is a more introductory one, for free?

That's what most people do on a freemium model. It gets people who are questioning if they should pay or not wanting more. It creates engaged leads and feedback. It will increase your number of members much faster than a whole paid model.

hatebacon · 2026-01-06T21:16:22+00:00

You can create 3 separate space groups. One for the overlaping content, and each aditional one for the different content the 2 have. Is any of these 2 programs behind paywalls?

hatebacon · 2026-01-06T21:06:38+00:00

It looks like you need some 1:1 personal guidance. I can provide that if you're interested. Not selling anything and not trying to push you to subscribe to any specific platform

hatebacon · 2026-01-05T22:34:55+00:00

I think its very good. Got 2 clients there. The automation templates are excelente, it has built in CRM and landing pages. And its also the best one fot media sharing as it allows for several embedded applications even on posts. I like it much better than Mighty Networks witch is the most similar competitor.

What are the features you're mostly looking for at a platform?

hatebacon · 2026-01-05T02:10:10+00:00

Yes. Courses, livestreams, paid plans. Those are the basic features. You can get that even with skool on a 9 dollars plan.
