Making fun of someone for trying to build a business is like making fun of someone who’s trying to getting in shape.

Respect all hustlers and help them grow 💪🏻

Submitted application to open my first IBKR account via Quant Capital (UK)

Anyone using IBKR? How’s the experience?

We’ve built a wonderful Plagiarism Check platform which gives everyone the access to Turnitin - which is like the best in the world.

How can I market this to a wide range of audience? Any suggestions?

From application to final registration of our brand name and logo in the UK 🇬🇧 just took 2 months. The application itself took me only 30 minutes to file.

How long does the same thing take in India?

[Shlok Kulkarni @Shlokaster]

Planning to get into farming in the UK.

Any farmland experts here?

@TraderAryan Buy Low PE stocks for swing trading. Good books, micro-small caps.
Revealed my profits in my feed.

DoMyWork has grown for 10 years with zero paid marketing.

Not zero growth. Zero paid marketing.

What compounded instead: word of mouth, repeat business, and SEO with patience. The organic rankings we earned in year 4 are the same ones still ranking today.

The lesson isn't "paid is bad." Paid is fine. The lesson is that paid marketing is a flywheel addition, not a flywheel replacement. If your product doesn't compound on its own, paid spend buys a temporary uptick that disappears the day you stop spending.

Most EdTech that died in the 2022-2024 collapse had paid as the flywheel. When the cash ran out, the customers didn't stay.

Last one: my most expensive hire wasn't the salary, it was the year I spent managing someone who needed managing.

Senior on paper, junior in practice.

Now I screen for one specific thing: do they require management to produce good work? If yes, pass.

[Shlok Kulkarni @Shlokaster]

If you are a young company, a startup or planning to make your first hire.

This thread is very important for you ↓

Fourth: the cost of a bad hire at small scale is bigger than the salary you saved by going cheap.
