Do you recommend:

- Selling 1 Product?
- Creating a Product oppose to Licensing a Product?
- Products that can be Manufactured in USA instead of overseas?
- Staying away from Apparel? (as sizes & colors mean many products not 1)
- outsourcing marketing?
- outsourcing copy-writing or sales pages (not my forte)
- hire ad designers for magazine ads?
- a particular fulfillment house suitable for a start-up?

Looked at Standard Rate & Data Services…the Ad Costs are quite substantial.

I’ve been at B&N looking at Magazines for product ideas. Went on Writer’s Market, but did not know how to use it.

My 2 Biggest Obstacles:

- Coming up with a Product
- Filter Ideas so the Product fits in the Architecture & Fully Automate.

Since coming up with a product take so much time for me. Do you recommend I look at Inventors’ products and license one that will market well?

Just quit my job and relocating to Vietnam for 3 months to think & come up with a product.

I have implemented Definition, Elimination, and a short Liberation from the DEAL Method.

I am stuck on Automation; my brain hurts thinking about it everyday.

Your book has changed my life. It’s what I’ve been after for so many years.

Anxiously waiting for your case studies to come out.

Less is more. In business, life, work, and creativity.

Targeting a niche, 80-20′ing it (coincides with less is more), and planning scalable profit are my favorite tips here.

By focusing on a specific target audience that will a) be most receptive and b) be able to spread your message, planning a scalable model that’ll automatically grow when your audience does, and then focusing on the 20% of the actions that’ll bring you 80% results, you have a practically bullet-proof system for achieving your goal easier and faster.

Thanks for your tips on keeping it simple and effective,
