HUGE vases do well but are a pita to ship.

I own a few Chinese vases, I think they are cool.

I'm not a collector, but I could see myself as one if I had the time.

I also have quite a few music boxes, I like those also. Going to leave them to my kids and grandkids one day.

If you want to learn marketing then study and buy courses from the masters, not some F****** teacher.

Maybe the teachers at Wharton might have a clue, every other college is worthless.

Steve Jobs, nor Bill Gates learned from some idiot teacher.

100% agree.

If a professor knows marketing they would not be teaching kids who dont want to learn and make 75k per year doing it.

If a person masters marketing then all they need is an idea or a product and they can make 75k a month or a week.

Not many master marketing, only a small few actually master it.

We were talking about Mark Cuban last night in chat, another marketing guru who mastered it.

I'll see if they have a website tomorrow for you. But most of the things sold here are high end prices.

I have my own website that members pay BIG money on a monthly basis for my marketing advice.

This site is for my PP learing and pro-bono marketing help.

This site is based upon Vbulletin software. The same as my sites. The programmer can allow x amount of "Thanks" per thread, per day, etc...

Not sure what Aspkin has programmed.

GhostWhoWalks · #54 02-20-2013

Oh okay thanks! You have one also? OMG I'd join as a free member at first! Nice!

We were talking about Mark Cuban last night in chat, another marketing guru who mastered it.

I was at a seminar two years ago and Cuban was one of the guest speakers. He is not someone I follow for advice. He's really not that well trained at marketing.

He's got the basics down, but there are many others that would smoke him in marketing.

Mark is dedicted, hard working, and takes action. That's what I took away from him.

He sold a company back in 2000, I think Broadcast.com, no longer around. He made Billions from it. He then went on and bought the Dallas Mavericks and got a lot of publicity.

I personally would never waste my time reading Cubans advice. I've read his books and follow him on Sharks, but he's so-so at marketing.

I would rather follow someone like Damon John on Sharks, he has more marketing savvy than Cuban.

And someone like Mark O'Leary definitely understands the Metrics of business and marketing, that's very important. Mark (Mr Wonderful) is the man. He kicks all their arses.

Vbulletin is very popular, especially for forums.

I use this software for my members. You can start a forum like this for $300 license and some programming. I can have a basic site up in 24 hours.

Aspkin has some nice features on this site that keep the readers attention and brings in revenue. One of the nicer sites I've seen.

Roscoe · #58 02-20-2013

Like I said previously Sandy, if I wanted to learn how to Ebay I'd go to you, not some college professsor.

WOW Roscoe, that's very lucky of you Cuban was there I just googled the guy. You know guys there are some products out there, that are just hot for the moment or will sell like crazy for no reason!

I don't know much about programming.

I just had to.

Speaking of the devil!
Title reads : How it will feel to wear Google Glass
SEE ALSO: How Google Glass Could Change Advertising

How it will feel to wear Google Glass - CNN.com

(CNN) -- What would it be like to wear Google Glass? Google answered that very question Wednesday morning, posting a lot more information about Project Glass, including the user interface, through a series of photos and videos.
You can see the UI and some of the features of Glass here, although the images don't quite capture the exact experience. The headset doesn't actually have lenses in front of your eyes, just a small screen (viewable via a mirrored glass block) above and to the right of the wearer's right eye.
As such, the point-of-view images that show a large action window in the center of the field of view are a little misleading.
Still, the photos, posted on Google's Project Glass website, show more about how Glass works than any photo of the hardware could convey.
This video shows even more: Commanding the headset is as easy as uttering the words "OK, Glass," a clever use of real-world speech to engage the device's listening mode.

There is more on the link.

PayPal 75% of my income.
Google Wallet is 10-15% of my income.
Other processors is 10-15% of my income.

Slowly it increases monthly but I be using PayPal for long time.
I have my own websites over 4 dedicated servers never sold on ebay. I install the sites just hire designers. I usually pay $10-50 a site for designs.

GhostWhoWalks · #63 02-21-2013

That is pretty dirt cheap JJ.

slim jim · #64 02-21-2013

With all the free templates out there it is so easy and cheap to build someone a website (informative, not so much with selling items). Did one yesterday in about 1 hr, now I have to wait a week because otherwise they will think they are paying too much

GhostWhoWalks · #65 02-21-2013

Lol Slim I love it! My friend builds websites and takes temples from all over the web and pays like big bucks for some from top companies and charges other customers big money for it also! He asked me what one I want off the internet? All I got to do is point and tell him and bam I got it for FREE! But you are to funny man! I love it!

zoneout · #66 02-21-2013

Cuban wasnt good - just lucky. Had he held broadcast.com a little longer he would be about as penniless as the guys from pets.com after the bubble.
