thanks OP.

I do programming and deep learning.

pm for coop. lets get rich

>>24391324
I make websites

>>24391345
based, I'm learning React rn.

i tried entrepreneurship and didnt make any money
i guess i don't have the personality required

>>24391381
what did you do?

>>24391345
got any ideas?

How do I generate passive income with websites? Website -> traffic -> adsense -> affiliate ?

>>24391414
mainly affiliate marketing via niche blogs and a bit of ecommerce

>>24390321
Include a link to the previous thread anon

>>24391381
entrepreneurship is a scam. if you want to build something successful you need government sponsorship

>>24390321
I like this thread. OP, please post this daily even if you don't get many replies we need to make this board better

>>24390321
why is all "entrepreneurial" discussion online nothing but scammers doing GET YOUR GRIND ON vlogs or talking about dropshitting, SaaS meme apps, and other meme businesses without any numbers or, at the very best, revenue without a mention of net income?

>>24391993
same reason going to school for "business" is a scam, it's zero substance garbage that confers to real skills or experience

>>24391988
lmfao

I'm bretty good at creating webshit. Give me some ideas for a webapp in crypto space that I can make money with /biz/bros

>>24391612
will do next time.

>>24391993
It's very easy money, for the seller that is- all the dropship and motivational meme videos and such are very easy to produce, and to consume, it makes you feel good though ultimately leads nowhere.

>>24392052
How do you learn business skills outside of school? trial & error? srs question

>>24392052
i'm an accountant. i would see a lot of value in understanding how the business works from a very boring nuts and bolts perspective with monthly financials.

>>24390321
I download images from 4chan and post them on a website. Got 5000+ images so far. I make all of my revenue from BAT donations as of now but once I start getting 10k hits a month I plan on signing up for ezoic and running ads. I'm at 7k hits per month right now but traffic is picking up so hopefully I'm getting close.

>>24392437
how much do you make?

>>24392437
this is pretty good, gonna bookmark it for future use. Hope it takes off ^^

>>24392069
What did you code so far? Idea here

>>24392437
That’s nice gj anon

>>24392466
Gotten around 1000 BAT this year so ~$250? I cash out right away though for tax purposes. My only concern is possibly hosting images that would get me banned from adsense or any of its partners. I figured I'm safe because I've carefully chosen which memes to add (no racist, homophobic or other offensive ones) and I would rather not get blacklisted because there goes any chance of making money. Also knowyourmeme has basically the same meme categories and they use adsense so I figured I'm safe as long as I don't show any crazy stuff. Maybe some anons with ad experience can weigh in on this topic?

>>24392437
Nice one

>>24392470
>>24392728

Thanks anons. Been trying for ages to advertise this on 4chan through the self serve ads but they still seem to be not working properly. Hopefully they get those fixed soon.

>>24392647
Nothing significant of my own because I have no good ideas but Im a senior engineer as far as my credentials go. Thought about creating a bot that scrapes data from r*ddit and creates and uploads compilation videos but jewtube doesn't let you monetize those so that never materialized.

>>24392437
I've seen you post since you first started bro gj so far.
I like now whenever I need something even if I don't go to your site I google it and your site pops up most of the time
keep it up

>>24392784
sent a tip of 1bat, not much but just recently started using brave

>>24392817
Yeah, it's not worth it. I'm close friends with the guy who made the "Reddit Compilations" youtube channel, his /r/shittyrobots video has 10 million views. I think he made a couple dozen grand usd off of all his videos total, it was a great side gig and he pretty much automated the entire thing. The problem was he was getting absolutely assblasted with copyright strikes and shit from people trying to grab ad money since apparently that's a thing on youtube. He was getting like 5 a month so decided to abandon the whole thing :/

>>24392789
Thanks brah.

>>24392865
I appreciate that my dude. It's great to hear positive feedback. My average search index ranking is around 6 so I think that puts me on the front page for most of the keywords. I'll keep grinding it out and making improvements.

>>24392437

>>24392900
Why would someone complain about copyright stuff for anonymous reddit posts?

I'm trying something similar myself, but for 4chan

https://youtu.be/8G03r-tElbk

Hoping to get it to 1000 subs and monetize it

theres an easy market for anything to do with construction i heard someone has to decline 100s of houses because there is too many waiting lists for services like concrete

>>24393007
The money, if a successful copyright strike goes through they'll get all the ad money. Typically they target channels that don't have any communities. I subbed to your channel, I'm thinking of reading a greentext or two one of these days, it'd be a good way to practice my video editing and I've been told I have a good voice for reading/broadcast

>>24392946
Create description and keywords meta tags for your home page and every category you have in the sidebar. Keywords will help your SEO for non Google search engines, description will help everywhere.

>>24393056
>if a successful copyright strike goes through they'll get all the ad money
Could you explain what that means? I'm not sure I follow. The content is anonymous

Thanks for the sub anon

>>24392437
I use your site now instead of filling my reaction folders, with the exception of PNK memes. Why haven't you started a Kleros tab yet? I'll tip you 5 BAT per month if you can collect even just 100 pnk images.

>>24392900
Copyright strikes are a bitch. Another idea I had was creating something similar but for obscure chiptunes. But there are already way too many music channels and copyright would still likely be a problem there.

>>24393264
Even with royalty free music and anonymous content, a lot of people would try to "claim" that they owned a particular video segment or even the music. Just asked him about this, he wasn't able to make any money off of the videos because of the strikes and it all went to the trolls. They would flag him at the end of the month so money would almost be coming his way but then it'd go to them instead, you can dispute these but not when you get flagged multiple times and each case takes like a week and with each strike you get reduced support. Pretty fucked, this was back in 2016 though I'm not sure if much has changed.

>>24393428
"that’s why it’s hard to maintain a channel like that since “while being perfectly legal” it’s a grey area since none of the content is mine
even if it’s valid. it can be taken out of context and since i didn’t produce the content. it was hard for me to back it up"

Direct quote from him. I want to read greentexts to practice video editing and have some fun with it, maybe if it picks up I could earn a couple bucks off of ad revenue, hope this doesn't happen lol

>>24393209
That's kind of what I tried to do with my naming convention. It's the main category first (pepe, wojak, etc.) then a descriptor of what type it is (sad, onions boy, pink, green). So it's kind of implicit SEO. I also have a sitemap for the images so I've been told that helps a lot too. The only area I'm extremely weak on is back linking. Not even sure where to start with that. Thanks for the help.

>>24393275
I've been playing with the idea a selling pages to crypto projects for their memes. I know there are a bunch of them out there and this board lives and dies by the may mays so we'll see. Thanks for the support anon.

>>24394291
>I've been playing with the idea a selling pages to crypto projects for their memes.
Most legitimate projects won't (and shouldn't) pay for 'advertising' like this. However, Kleros does have a Curate storytelling project running, in order to test the robustness of Curate trials, and if your site is considered 'high impact' then they'll give you 10k PNK (~$1000) for giving PNK a tab. And I'll start tipping you.

To OP

yes, large antler halves continually go for $50-$60

Very small pieces are $10

Not sure about demand but my dogs loves them

>>24394714
Interesting. I'll look into it anon. Thanks for the heads up.

>>24391931
This is true. Start a business where you qualify for government grants or contracts for maximum profit.

>>24392437
Ive been looking for u didnt c u in the bat thread the other day. Got a question i bought a godaddy domain and am starting up a pretty simplistic website should i use their website maker or use wix my html and java knowledge is pretty limited im good with it but not that skilled with code figured id ask how you went about making your website since its pretty good

>>24395147
Thanks man. What kind of website are you going to be building? If its just a simple blogging website it would be better to use wix or divi from wordpress. You want to get something up and running first and then further down the line you can implement a more custom solution. I've used divi for a couple of blogging website and honestly it's pretty good.

I figured for me it was just easier to write my own website because I needed to do a lot of optimization because it was so image heavy. Plus I've written a lot of python scripts to help with creating the thumbnails and writing 5000+ lines of html code for the images. CSS is always a pain to get right so I fought with it a lot as well.

Bottom line is use and website builder.

>>24395147
Take a look at webflow anon. Pretty straightforward and youtube has a million tutorials (even ones where it combines with memberstack to create a members-only website with monthly payments). If you're just planning to host content, or write a blog, use the tools others have built (it's the buy vs build argument really, unless you wanna brush up your web dev skills). If you're creating a bespoke piece of technology via a web app, obviously build it yourself.

I bought a piece of land dirt cheap. Fairly close to a large city <1 hr. Away.

Thinking of building a small cabin and rent it on airbnb as a glorified camping retreat.

Above links give a grounding on a variety of topics. Business School is a meme that applied for the last 30-40 years, but in the information age we now live in, I can't see them holding much value over the next 30-40 years. Typically you'd do a degree, get a few years work experience as a corporate wage slave then hit a ceiling and the only way up would be obtaining $200k debt via an MBA. The model was fucked as obviously only the already generational wealthy could afford it besides scholarships.

Thanks guys its a crypto based website i think to start off the most i really need is a clipboard feature to quickly copy paste addresses and i can probably find that code somewhere. Eventually might have a feed type screen that shows where transactions are going. Pretty sure my plan will do well. If i get this up and running and its as successful as I anticipate im going to help out the /biz/raelis and other boards Ill just port over the domain to wix and use that. Wish i could say more about it but maybe in time ill be able to thanks again

What specific hobbies do you do and which tools do you wish you had at your disposal to participate in those hobbies? Not saying its you but a lot of people (myself included at one time) want to build the next facebook or twitter but there's 1000 other projects out there trying to do the same exact thing. Start with something small and niche and grow from there.

Anyone had luck in real estate?

>>24392437
nice, seen you shill your site on here before, proud of you anon. what skillset did you need to build something like this? I'm learning Ruby right now and have some basic HTML& CSS knowledge. Am I on the right track for learning how to develop adequate websites?

>>24396402
> On the investing side there's huge capital requirements and property management issues once you get a property. Also tennant's have all the power.

> On the flipping side you pretty much have to know how to do everything yourself to see any appreciable ROI.

> On the real estate agent side you'll be driving around soccer moms for months just for them to go with another agent and you won't get paid a cent. Not to mention that you'll have to be an underling for the top agent at your broker and do all their dirty work. Basically a pyramid scheme.

> On the building side... I don't know but I'm sure its hard as hell to make a profit too.

With that being said it seems like we're at the top of the market anyways, I'm seeing houses in my area go for about 30k more than anyone should pay for them but that's just my uneducated opinion. Although I do have more insight than you're average joe as my dad is a home inspector and mom was a real estate agent.

>>24396472
Thanks man, I try not to shill too much but I do want anons to know about it. And I picked up a lot of my skills just playing around while getting my CS degree but you definitely don't need one to make websites. I just got a broad exposure to a bunch on languages and classes that made learning a bit quicker. I'd say pick up some javascript experience too as ruby will only help you with the backend stuff, which is still valuable though. I would suggest learning pure JS though before moving on to jquery or react because it will give you a better understanding of what you're doing. And for webdev stuff learning how to interact with the DOM is a must. Mozilla has some great documentation on it.

> good lord

Honestly dude there's no way I could possible catalog all of those which is a big part of my SEO strategy. I guess in a way the one's I've collected over the past 2 years have been filtered implicitly through their popularity by way of being posted by anons, so those are the one's I'm trying to target. Do you just have a mass board scraper that grabs all the images and catalogs them?

I'm going to be out of work until mid-January, what are some ways I can make money during that time?

>>24396934
I wrote a python script to find duplicates and print out a list if you're interested....

>>24397043
yes that is exactly it. i scrape boards for all their thumbnails. classify whether it is a pepe or not, and then download the full image.

>>24397075
all the files are unique. its the content that is the "same." two files can hash to different values but the image may just be resized. perceptual hashing is a thing but it doesnt really work. two different pepes may hash to the same value (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perceptual_hashing))

>>24397118
That's exactly what I did but with my problem size its manageable and I haven't gotten any collisions so far. I get the hash of two images and compare them. But to optimize I turn them into 200x200 thumbnails which cuts down on the runtime. Either way it's still n^2 which sucks and if I really wanted to I could rewrite the program in c++ but I don't feel like it.

Lit thread. This is the kind of shit I like to see on /biz/.

>>24397230

>Be good at making BBQ
>Make a BBQ business
>No one buys BBQ

I'm facing the same problem as hundreds of entrep: confusing production skill with business skill. How do I bridge the gap?

What's the basics of marketing? Right now, the only strategy I have left is go quiet for a while, go back after a few weeks with decreased prices, and incrementally increase my margins over time. I don't have a following or presence so far.

Remember

Made 800k this year selling vintage audio online this year. I paid my mortgage off, quit my wagekek job and then started selling on Craigslist and arbitraging to instagram. It’s crazy when Im making ~10k in profit per week now. It was beyond my reality 3 years ago that I could make a yearly salary in a month. taking boomers money is so easy, but i guess some millennial has to do it.

>>24399798
just a few things i say are needed to protect retards who don't know due diligence in hiring the right people, its unfortunate but they might have children that you don't want to hurt in collateral

for example things that wouldn't need government funding since you do the work yourself, training yourself at least in things that you install that have the chance of hurting other people, rarely operation training

but most importantly education and making things done right are most important, but all the insurances and everything in the middle is too much governant

>>24400678
maybe he just sells the digital audio files?

>>24400678

>>24392437
Was expecting meme atlas by end of sentence 1 or 2. Turns out I was correct.

>>24392784
So like $20 a month? How much are the costs of maintaining the website? How much ends up being profit?

>>24400761
Do you have a marketing funnel that you had to test, and you just use social media to get traffic or do you do facebook ads?

>>24401181

Yep exactly.

>>24401181
So ... no facebook ads and strictly social media? That's amazing. Getting free leads is tricky. Or do you do paid social media marketing ...

>>24401181

I push traffic from boomer book to my website where I collect name, email, phone number. They want the price but I make them give their information. Then I release my product first come first serve on email drops. They literally have to call as fast as they can because my product sells to fast. Also mass text messages is like launching a nuclear bomb, too easy. Now I have a “VIP list” where they give me $2,000 deposits to get first look at my products before they’re released. Lmao

>>24401344

Yes i run paid ads

>flipping deer antlers edition
lol im the guy that suggested the ebay antler dog treat thing. anyways, heres another tip. for any PNW anons out there, you can make a few hundred bucks a day hunting and selling gourmet mushrooms.
i collected 18 pounds yesterday and sold them today for $12/lb
(pic not mine)
you can sell them on craigslist easy
if they dont sell, then dry them and sell them later
cheers

>>24401423
Hey hey welcome back. I'm going to see if I could possibly buy local, for $15 I'm getting two 6 inches which I thought is the best minimum for a dog bone.... reckon 3 inches would work? seems too small for a dog. Might have to take a small loss on this if I can't sell them

>>24401423
>lol im the guy that suggested the ebay antler dog treat thing

>>24401459

try going outside sometime and hunting for sheds (antlers)
good luck to ya

>>24401489
Got mine from this guy, first result. Hope I can find a good deal maybe in person around my area or in auction. Fuck it I'd love to just hunt the fuckers themselves though I'm not sure about the legality of it

>>24401363
Nice! Obviously I'm not going to ask where you get your items, but can you give hints for a beginner to start with ecom? Do I start off with Alibaba or some shit from China?

>>24401459
you wanna do something like
small: 3.5 inch - dogs up to 30lbs
med: 4-5inch - dogs up to 70lbs
large: 6 inch - dogs up to 100000lbs
so buy large antlers and use a hacksaw
you can personalize it by asking the customer how big their dog is
customer likes to feel like their getting a customer order
even if their not

>>24401570

>Should I be an investing guru?

This is a tough one for me. I have the credentials, portfolio, experience, and speaking skills to do it effectively. I've run the investment club of my university for years and have a small but devoted following among my students who have proven themselves successful over long term.

However, I know I won't be able to get enough of the market share unless I start to dress up for the image, flash a rented car/mansion, and make insane claims on ROI.

>>24401531
that guy is a reseller
dont buy
hes doing exactly what im telling you to do
dont buy
find someone selling antlers on ebay
come in within the last 45 seconds and put in the winning bid
works everytime
but yeah, get a doggo and go hunt for antlers. every deer sheds their antlers. theyre hard to find but its a pleasure hunting for them

>>24401631
Gotcha. problem with those auctions (and most of deer antlers on ebay) is that the shipping is balls to the walls high, not sure if I could turn much profit on them. I have a good hunter friend though, going to see what I can do with his connections

>>24401562

Idk that shit is gay and crap. I started by cleaning old antiques, taking nice pictures, and reselling on etsy.

Now I have my own brand of vintage audio that houses McIntosh audio. I took this pic today.

>>24401690
if your able to find customers then you dont need to worry about a supplier or getting the best price because if you can move large quantities of antlers then you can buy large quantities of antlers at wholesale (which is very very cheap)
so i would focus on marketing and brand
products these days are all marketing
(and a good return/satisfaction guarantee policy)

good for you, godspeed

im working on a website/browser-extension/app that definitly would target 4chan user, but also reddit and stuff but i dont just want to shill it, fearing they dont use it because it got shilled by its creator, especially the reddit onions and their disclaimer, how do you shill correctly?

for one, i hope due to the usefullness its gonna shill itself, but im not sure yet


its a novel reverse image search which does not work on image similarity like google or yandex, could be extra usefull for porn, but i think seperating porn and non-porn would be the best for advertisement and seo

>>24390321
Bump. Please make this a regular thing

>>24402781
Fucking kek, I love seeing hobby ai projects like this, anyone here familiar at all with quantum computing? I found this site called Qiskit that looks like a great resource, it even let's you run a quantum program you create on their hardware, if you're able to build one.

>>24402772
they are not generated anew on demand are they?

>>24405210
if its a good product it's gonna advertise itself. atleast that's what i like to believe

>>24390321
The follow-up to Millionaire Fastlane is UNSCRIPTED, but I'm only at the first 1/3 so I cannot say much about it yet.

>>24401761
lmao not bad at all. Using webm's is definitely a unique concept and I think you found a nice niche. It's a solid start for sure. Keep at it anon.

>>24401788
checked and based, thanks anon.

>>24402772
Nice site dude. How much traffic are you getting? And thanks man, we're slinging memes together.

>>24404702
That's kind of what I was going for honestly. Just a simple visual list of memes with maybe an ad or two stuffed in there. Kind of sick of the 2010 style of UI/UX (although I don't think mine is radically different).

>>24405210
If it's good people will be happy when you shill. I don't mention meme atlas in every thread but if it's relevant I definitely do. The only anons who didn't like it was /g/ but then again they don't like anything.

There is a considerable discrepancy between people's ideas of entrepreneurship, and real entrepreneurship. This is why the culture around it is so backwards and stupid, full of tropes and clickbait bullshit that attempts to pander to the average person's inaccurate fantasies. Dont ever consume 'entrepreneur media' bros, go out and make some shit instead and do it for real

>>24399798
Regulations are fucking evil.

The fact so many people on this website hate libertarians makes you all retarded bootlickers.

>>24391324
I have a new skateboard brand, willing to give 50% equity to a website creator/ marketing specialist.

>>24407021
gud site anon, u hab new user

>>24407659
It's even worse if you're a western mainland yuro. God fucking damn it there's regulations for everything here. Name a business idea and I'll guarantee you that there's regulations for it.

>>24407981
Idiots think regulations are a good thing. I hate humanity.

>>24390321
Book is good stuff, got through like two thirds of it when I got off my ass and set up a print-on-demand account

>>24407874
sounds like your equity at the moment is zero otherwise you would hire a webdev for a one time payment of a few $k and be done with it

what website do you want, just infos, or a shop?
i would start with a premade shop/website with some customizations you either do yourself, or hire someone to just do that instead of a fullblown shop

getting people to visit your website is more important in that state than having an extensive shop

>>24402772
You scrape off Reddit don't you

>>24407936
Thanks fren

Random question; is social media marketing agency still a thing ? E.g. tai lopez program (lol) etc. ? If so, what is the best course to learn right now? I look forward to seeing you all in the next /eg/ general.

>>24406750

That book is based

>>24409402

That shit is for entrepreneur’s who scam other entrepreneurs. Obviously if the money was in social media agency then Tia would be doing that. But its not, the money is in taking wanna be rich people’s money.

Best thread since the WFH generals, and I'm the anon that creates the comfy WFH treads everyday. Will be a regular here as well.

Anyone have a business registered in a different country?
What's it like?

Other "nomad capitalists" share your experience.

>>24392437
are you the guy from meme atlas? Holy shit I use your site all the time, doing God's work anon. Please add more tuxedo pepe memes.

>>24399798
I'm in one industry that's highly regulated, highly political, has rather high capital requirements to do something meaningful. The downsides are obvious. But the upsides are surprising: it forces me to be very creative and to try novel approaches (also to find niches that are for now underregulated). That kind of "bleeding edge" makes it attractive for good people to join me (often highly technical background and loving the topic but appalled by the red tape and politics and glad that someone takes on the fight) and -- if I need it -- perhaps investors. It also lets me work at the regulatory frontier where my voice then has slightly more meaning.
While I dislike the heavy regulation and rather high market entry barriers, one is surrounded by above average people and can receive unexpected support. That being said, I still need to succeed, so I won't pretend otherwise.

>>24409968
Anything that sticks out, a surprising or funny insight perhaps?

>>24411207
Haha I am and I will. Glad you find it useful anon.

>>24411647

Millionaire fastlane cuts out all the bullshit and gives it to you straight up

>>24411863
Do you have Pepe from Empire of Dust yet?

Might best be named "It's all so tiresome" or "Tiresome Pepe".

>>24414237
BTW, for those who haven't seen the movie, it's a documentary about some Chinese manager having to deal with African laborers in the (formerly Belgian) Congo. He discusses how, after Belgium gave up its colony, the Africans let it all turn back to shit. In the memed scene, he's discussing labor problems and how the Africans constantly lie about whether they've done things and overpromise on whether they'll deliver supplies, finishing with a heavy sigh and "It's all so tiresome."

The movie is a must-watch.

>Nice site dude. How much traffic are you getting? And thanks man, we're slinging memes together

ty! not so good traffic yet im at like 1000 uniques but i didnt use my rl identity to promote it - just posted memes on the web. this is the first time im talking about it

>>24413559
Fastlane was useful (though a bit verbose). I meant UNSCRIPTED. Did you read it? That's where I'm still in the first 1/3.

>>24410840
not really, but i looked into creating a limited in ireland, as a european resident

turns out it would be pretty stupid to do so due to brexit, though the near anonmity through a middleman was interesting

>>24415869
>european resident
EU citizen? What impact would Brexit have in that case?

https://callmenish.com/how-to-run-a-tech-ponzi-scheme/

read this post. how viable is it to just make shit up and sell it as a class for money?

>>24415750
Unrelated to your question but does it get any less verbose after chapter 2? Right now everything I've read so far can be summarized as "Slowlane is slow also I'm succesful"

>>24416155
Guess the video in OP provides a summary.
It gets less verbose in later chapters when he lists mostly facts or clear statements (even to a point where some more details/examples could be beneficial), but it takes a while until one gets there. Perhaps it's meant to get into the right mood to break through the "loser think" most people are indoctrinated with.
The book was recommended on /biz/ by several anons and I decided to enjoy the lengthy ride.
