  2. Viral Marketing Strategies

    Most, I guess, would say one great/pillar/epic post, but here is an alternate perspective: If you're doing it yourself, quality increases with quantity. So "two average posts" gradually become two "good posts" and occasionally, "one good post and one great post". This is assuming you are an...
  3. And i'm Fired

    I wrote a lengthy reply with step by step instructions and then deleted it. Reason: People all over the world have figured out how to add their profile to Upwork. If you cannot even get your profile accepted, how will you manage to accomplish anything bigger? How will you compete with those...

  5. And i'm Fired

    Get a job. A REAL JOB. One which pays you every month. You do not need to abandon your dream. You can find time to pursue your dreams if you are passionate enough. Most people who are advising you to risk it all are highly confident high achievers. Right now, you are neither. You can be. You...
  6. Is it illegal to message all my competitors facebook and twitter followers?

    Not sure about the legality, so not going to comment on that part. Selenium and CasperJS are both pretty decent for automating tasks. Selenium has support for multiple languages and multiple ways (record vs code) so there is that too. Oh, yeah, and: Funny to see @Casper talking about Casper :-)

  9. "Tech and Coding" Mentor

    If you have a definite project in mind, post it here or message those who are interested, including me. Then your potential mentors can evaluate it and see if they can add value to it, as well as think of different types of arrangements which will make sense to them: hourly, result based, profit...
  10. Excel sheets or something else for admin?

  12. Selling my business - Need some help with the financials

    "His thoughts are that we split 85% of the equity in 85/15 manner, and let him keep 100% of his 15% royalty." Did you mean to say ""His thoughts are that we split 85% of the equity in 85/15 manner, and also let him have 15% [calculated according to your description] in consideration of his 15%...

  16. Recovering a Gmail Account

    Try emailing websitename@gmail.com and try to convince the old owner to transfer it to you. If that doesn't work: Create new social media accounts. When compared to domain history, social media account history doesn't seem to matter much. Notify followers of the old accounts about your new...
  17. Recovering a Gmail Account

    "the account was linked to a cell phone which I obviously don't want to do" FWIW: I have multiple email accounts tied to the same phone number. I have had to recover at least one of those accounts in the past. So far, nothing has happened to any of those accounts. I don't know your exact...
