What industry are they in, service or product are they selling? That affects which channels you use to get the word out and your approach

A couple of things which are universal, that even if you know are just worth drilling home:
>Consistency. Font on your online presence. Colour Scheme. Once you decide it, stick to it religiously
>Same goes for the language. Use the same adjectives and key words.
>Tailor your traffic. Don't try and get the maximum number of hits, or clickthroughs. Make sure the RIGHT people are clicking through. A higher ratio to purchase is way better than huge volumes and no purchases.

Also look up a couple of the affiliate marketing threads on this board. You can use the same principles, except instead of driving traffic to a third party, you're driving it to your own business.

Female clothing.

>>1432819
All right helps. So, have you considered Pinterest and Instagram?
Some well light photos, some nice styling, link in the description, hashtag with brand-name can really help create desire for the product. That's also where most women are at.

Clothing is something very visual, so the best way to sell is visual.
I highly suggest investing in a cheap photo shoot. You may not even need a model, just borrow a friend's dressmaking mannequin for an afternoon and shoot. Buy some craft paper that matches the colour to make the photos 'funky' and 'fun'. Click click click.

don't be afraid to lie about everything.

Really?

Make sure you ALWAYS ask the interviewer some questions. If you don't, you'll automatically be disqualified—even if you aced the other questions.
Be prepared prior to the interview with AT LEAST 3 questions to ask.

>i make about 30k and do almost nothing but browse 4chan all day.

If that's really true, then there shouldn't be too much of a problem with you studying during the day to acquire a skill set that can get you into a different career.

Does your job offer any sort of tuition reimbursement? Use that to take classes at the local college. You might even be able to use that to miss out a day or two every now and then for class (exams or whatever.)

Barring that, take evening courses and study or do homework during the day. If you're really doing nothing at work, you ought to be able to do very nearly a full course load every semester.

If you're working at a place where there is flexible time, you can arrive much earlier or much later such that there will be two or so hours every day where you don't have to interact with coworkers.

Just out of curiosity: Do you work in a government job?

Quit asking for what to do and starting taking the steps yourself. You already know what you want so set some goals to get their faggot. You aren't alive to fail

I was in the same boat not too long ago. No degree, same job from 19-25, making 50k a year but if I did it until I retired I could make 100k max if I was really lucky. The job sucked and I felt drained every night after it. Finally decided to put myself in a position to be employed in a field with more upside. Studied for 4 months and got my CCNA with no background in IT and no degree or anything. Got a job as a network engineer making less, but at least it's work experience on the resume and I genuinely enjoy what I do today more than what I used to do. I also go to the gym 4-5 times a week now and I'm loving it. I'm a skelton, but getting bigger and gaining confidence.

gl hf bro you'll make it if you work at it.

if the market blows up the price of gold will go down too

best just to have cash available ready to buy stuff

>>1432719
thats actually pretty reasonable growth for companies. considering population growth and technology.
plus interest rates are at an all time low... so ,those actually might be recession numbers.

Hey you might need to buy sooner than November. Also buy silver, it will go parabolic.

how will you fix it? though communism?

I'll stick to my free markets, thx

>>1432713
Why do you think it's skewed?

And this is why we are fucked forever

What is your project all about or you don't know yet?

>mentally unstable
probably shouldn't start a biznuss then.

but if you decide to, there's so many good options out there. if you want it to be in IT, you could simply start solving IT problems for people for cheap with the angle being "You're getting a huge discount because I'm a student." then once you have a few clients, just use their references to get more and more and charge more. eventually bring someone else on board who can do things you can't. so on and so forth. Basic consulting firm.

>probably shouldn't start a biznuss then.
Yeah I thought about that, I was hoping it would grant me more leeway.

>>1432948
Pretty much this:
>>1432957
I wanted to get some certs and do some basic consulting but didn't know how feasible it was. Because I specialize in security will people be comfortable with me being a student? I have 2 years experience working in a co-op and as an intern so I'm not totally without industry experience.

>how much can I make off this pump
Up to, but not including, infinite percent.
>how should I go about it
As ham-fistedly as you can, plebs who watch "movies" are too dumb to collect information from contextual clues, simpler is better.
>I could make my own memecoin
This screams narcicism even if it were foolproof, and it's not, as you are a screenwriter, not a person at all fluent with such computer-based designs.
>Shill existing coin
>Earliest is 2 years from now
So everything besides BTC and no-names will be dead by then if you script it now. I would recommend you keep that scene unrecorded and the name open to change until the very end, pick any altcoin them that doesn't start with a B, an X, or a vowel, and remember, max gain is near infinity, max loss is only 100%.

Pro Tip: Find out if that's insider trading by any stretch of logic, avoid trouble before you get in.

>>1432676
>How much money can I make of this pump?
If you mention a coin by name: Enough to make it worth your while. But don't expect 300% profit or anything (unless it's a really small volume coin, but small volumes won't be around in 2 years). As much as we like to think film and art and literature can change the world, one paragraph of dialogue is unlikely to cause a bull market

Shilling something that exists will give your film realism. Just like how Kubrick filled 2001: A Space Odyssey with Howard Johnsons, Pan Am, IBM and Hilton Hotel branding.

Bitcoin is the obvious one. But go on CoinMarketCap or a website like that, sus out which coins also have longevity.

>>1432715
> I would recommend you keep that scene unrecorded and the name open to change until the very end,
He's the screenwriter, he doesn't have the power to do that. There's no guarantee that after editing a snippet of dialogue like that would even make it into the film in-tact.


>Find out if that's insider trading by any stretch of logic, avoid trouble before you get in.
Not a lawyer but I'm confident it wouldn't be insider trading. Would the wines mentioned in Sideways be considered insider trading?

Trumpcoin.... Seriously what could be more controversial at this point.

>Earnings look like they could be very good
>People getting paid in stock options showing high insider confidence
>Possible high valuation buyout

Was fucking around with it earlier for shits n gigs because i was put of day trades. Mad me a couple bucks but im cashing out at open and buying the dip again....why not

Are you talking about international relations, international business, or business supply chain management?

>>1432589
yea its a great time to get in actually.
you can probably be a shipping magnate by 40.
but skip college and just work on the docks and save money, if u do it fast enough you can probably buy some boats.

there literally selling for 1$ right now.
(they cost 15k a year to store and keep up )

thanks but gettin in that college is a must for me (i live in hungary and the college is in denmark)

What's ur existential crisis?

>>1432535

Extreme skepticism. I clearly see how all wisdom and insights are bullshit. To make it biz related, I consider most organisational and productivity techniques to be bs

>>1432526
I was there m8. I dropped out of university twice. Took me 7 years to graduate all up. Worked in a fucking grocery store mainly doing night shift and thought that'd do for my life. Battled depression, restlessness, low confidence, uncertainty and all that shit.

But it's ok anon, I made it. Eventually.

>buy axe
>go into woods
>chop trees
>sell firewood at a fraction of convenience stores for higher quality firewood
>profit!

>get good at chopping wood
>save up some money
>buy a mulcher, offer tree removal services and sell the firewood/mulch of trees you remove
>DOUBLE profit

theres your no investment business

>>1432485
who the fuck needs firewood in august faggot

>>1432427
Make a solid business plan and go borrow money m8

Never mention degenerate hobbies like video games. Format looks pretty good though, but try to find a more professional and less bubbly bullet point option.

>>1432425
Format's okay, just cut the text down to about a third of what it is (at least lose Activities). Most employers only glance at your resume/CV for no longer than a few seconds when shortlisting.

Reduce bullet point size, also get rid of hobbies altogether to be honest.

>>1432464
thanks for the advice! it just feels weird trying to streamline everything even more than it is already.

Is the activities section really no good? when I did resume stuff in high school teachers said it was good to include clubs

Sell it.

>>1432414
Research which growers are getting government approval and invest now while you still can. Personally I'll be looking out for any equivalent to a breathalyzer test for marijuana consumption because preventing driving while high is going to be a big deal for law enforcement. If a promising technology is created then I'm investing before every cop in the country has one in their cars.

theres a number of Canadian Medicinal weed growers in canada

AHP
OGI
CGC
MTR

of these i have holdings in the first three as i think they will be allowed to sell straight weed legally when it finally gets legalized

dont think for a moment that it will be 100% unregulated, aka anybody can sell it. They are going to regulate the fuck out of it and who better to give a license to sell then the ones that sold medicinal weed before; not the scruffy guy down the street

They all died from starvation due to a lack of money to buy food

Happy that it regained its current value but bored

Y-you too!
