Inventrepreneurship: I took an idea to mass production with less than $6,000 (including biz filing and website fees) and turned it into a $5k/week profit business in 10 months. Here's MY process to get a simple invention from idea to mass production.
TL;DR at bottom - I apologize ahead of time if formatting is terrible. I don't really understand Reddit formatting. Let me preface this by saying that my initial product, the one this guide is based off of, was very simple. It's 100% polycarbonate. No metals, electronics, textile, etc. It's also extremely small.

He did each and every one for free. The show was created to promote his company's painting supplies." Made me realize what le...

Any post on this sub that reads "$12k/month" or "$50k/month" or $whatever k/month is an advertisement and extremely annoying. Do not fall for their shit, and do not feed them with your comments and praise.
Obviously there are those few exceptions that are actually real people who make real money... But the majority are not. We have to remember that Reddit can be used as a free marketing platform. But these types of posts, whether it's beard oil, t shirts, or whatever... They gotta stop being upvoted by everyone. ...

He now hates himself for trusting them and never wants to do business again after doing it his whole life. Edit: Thank you for these kind comments, awards, and helpful advice. I will definitely read these to him when I see him next week.

LinkedIn is for recruiters/job seekers & executives to circle jerk each other. Change my mind..
Really frustrated with my co-founder and just need to vent. He spends so much time on LinkedIn. We aren't hiring, and we aren't a B2B. Feels like it's all for vanity among his peers. Honestly, if you have time to be on LinkedIn, Twitter, or FB all day, you are not working. Period. Edit: woah, definitely wasn't prepar...

If you have not already, you should listen to the NPR podcast "How I Made This" hosted by Guy Raz. Guy interviews entrepreneurs from many fields and industries who went on to build successful businesses. There are great bits of insight, inspiration, and plenty of learning opportunities.

Anyone else feel like they can’t relax and feel happy and pursue their hobbies until they have a reliable passive income stream in the background that they can live off.
Idk if this is just something messed up about my brain but I can’t feel at ease until I have lots of money in the bank and passive income source I can live off. Because of this all I think of are potential business ideas all day lol

Hey guys, Last month I realized anyone could pretty much find out who the biggest Shopify stores are since they're all hosted under the same IP: 23.227.38.32 Knowing this, I scraped the Top 100 Shopify Stores by Alexa Rank, using myips.ms - so these are the most visited e-commerce stores using Shopify in the whole wo...
