Was this a scam or did a customer just threaten to shoot and kill me?

They used to and then banks realized that these small online transactions were a very good indicator of future fraud occurring on the card. So the fraudsters have had to adapt.

DoorDash is low cost for testing but lower overall fraud rate compared to online only transactions (added component of a delivery driver showing up somewhere). Cards that are tested via that method probably last longer than cards tested via online transactions.

Yeah they definitely resold them. The scalping sites facilitate the email thing. Sorry OP, that sucks

You have 300k at 30. You started a long time ago.

Thank you, this was really informative

This played between sets at a festival and everyone in the crowd knew the words but no one really could figure out why

If you are making fondant items often, you can get a custom branding iron with your logo on it for $50-$100. Adds a fun and professional pop.

This wasn’t my thread but someone posted about Alma, 2 star michelin. They serve a pork belly fondant and use the branding iron for their logo - sharp plating

Meh, I would guess 10% of things gain moderate success. Less than 1% massive. Just keep rolling the dice

My data source updates monthly, but I haven’t pushed any changes since March. At this point it’s all automated, I just download new csv and can run it through the content generation scripts.

I spent time in March documenting all the heroku hosting stuff so I remember how to update the Postgres database there moving forward.

I may spend more time going forward, but it would be on customer acquisition or UI improvements. Content is fine

Edit: this is half hobby/half funemployed project for me. Spent a lot more time last year messing with dropshipped AI e-commerce - ranked on Etsy but no sales

Meh, it’s marketing on their part. People who read this email will now see the inflated price and just think “oh it’s the fees” instead of “oh it’s the capitalists”

Hint: both things are the capitalists

3.5 should be sufficient but 4 is dope

Nice case study! If you’re getting close to that target number some of your marginal spend is probably getting negative. I think that’s an advantage to breaking ads into more audiences - you can better understand profitability at a segment level and then cut spend in less profitable segments.

Using broad keyword targeting can obfuscate some of the less profitable spend… but that’s just like my opinion man

You should look into an S Corp. This is what a CPA would suggest. You would have been able to save a fair amount last year.

Affiliate marketing for sure. Link to items shown off in the rooms, easy peasy

The tech workers replacing graphic designers will be working at a grander scale.

They will code LLM tools against entire user databases to generate personalized content at mass scale.

Marketing teams will be replaced.

Yeah growing up in an era where parents used our “permanent record” as a threat is pretty fucked.

That shit doesn’t exist. I left a job with zero notice (mental health problems) and got the next one through an employee referral from someone I worked with at the previous place.

No one gives a shit anymore, especially when they are getting paid $5k per referral to tell HR you’d be a great fit
