Noah & Nev take some entrepreneur-ish questions

Noah & Neville answer answer some user questions such as:

-Carrying out an idea. Do you just jump right into every idea you have and start building it, or do research first?

-How do I know if a business can be profitable? Noah shows his quick-n-ghetto cost-analysis formula.

-Do I need venture capital or outside funding for my business?

-Building version 1-point-O of your idea before rolling out something fancy.

-How do you advertise a service (based on Noah’s experience at Mint.com)

-How to find the right customers that actually fork up lotsa money

-How long does it take to be profitable?

-AppSumo cost $60 to build….how did you do that?
(watch our Outsourcing video for that)

-Do you need partners to start a biz? How did AppSumo do it?

-A rapid-fire-re-cap of all the questions (at the end)

Yo guys, I’ve really been enjoying a lot your videos recently! Great content and I love how you both cut through all the BS. Systems start small. Test and see if it works. If it does, scale it up – love it!… as I am learning and growing my processes, this info is key. Hey~I was looking for Noah’s product on his automated hiring system.. can you hook it up with the link?

Cheers!

I really love the appsumo logo. I was wondering who/where it was designed by.
