MenuHow to take care for content in envelope (call to action: put cd in computer, play the video)?
Answers
Follow these tips and help your envelope do its most important job: to get opened!
CHECK CD/DVD WORKING:
While sending the CD’s to companies, firstly you have to check while the CD is working properly or not
Check the disc surface before recording, and after recording check while the CD is working properly or not.
Remove dirt, fingerprints, smudges, and liquids by wiping with a clean cotton fabric in a straight line from the center of the disc toward the outer edge before packing them in envelop
Store discs upright (book style) in plastic cases specified for CDs and DVDs.
Use a non solvent-based felt-tip permanent marker to mark the label side of the disc.
For archiving recordable (R) discs, it is recommended to use discs that have a gold metal reflective layer.
ADD SOME COLOR:
Instead of the traditional pristine white envelopes typically used for business correspondence, make your envelopes more interesting by using color. Using colored envelopes would cost a bit more than the regular white ones, but it’ll be well worth the extra dollars if it means your envelope gets opened instead of being tossed to the junk mail pile.
CHANGE THE SIZE:
Similar to the impact of using colored envelopes, you can use an envelope that is anything but the standard #10 size. Go smaller with greeting card-sized envelopes, or go bigger to get to command immediate attention and stand out from that stack of mail.
USE HANDWRITING:
A handwritten name, contact details, email id on the envelope make it look personal, which increases the likelihood of it being opened. Using handwriting or equivalent would be a matter of discretion though, as some businesses would prefer to keep the overall look formal.
USE TEASER COPY:
Why not give your recipient a hint of what’s inside? Use a provocative statement. Rouse curiosity with a question or catchy headline that promises answers/details inside. Take teaser copy a step further with messages targeted at specific audiences by using phrases that speak about to your customers’ identity or interests. Envelopes can do more than just keep your material intact until it reaches your desired recipient.
It is getting increasingly hard to find computers with CD drives, and the best case scenario is that the corporate boss is going to ask someone lower in the rung to watch it and the chances of that happening is very low.
Would suggest reading up on what is now termed as Inside sales, a strategy that thousands of SaaS startups are using to reach out to enterprise clients, without a feet on street team.

Whats the best way to find commission sales reps?
This is not my specialty, however, I have been in your position many many times -- maybe this will help. If the product is in-tangible, then look for JV partners on the Internet. Try to find an expert that deals with these JV opportunities (like me). If the product is physical, then look for sales organizations that have networks of sales people across the country. You do the deal with the organization and the independent network of sales people sells your product. It's a sweet setup if you can negotiate a margin that works for everyone. Hope that helps - Cheers - NickNickolas PassigNP

How was SnapChat able to grow so quickly?
I'm answering your question assuming that you hope to be able to replicate it's own success in your own mobile app. There are a couple of factors responsible for it's growth that are instructive to anyone building a mobile app. "Leveraging the intimacy and privacy of the mobile phone." We now have an *intimate* relationship with our phone like no other device in the history of technology. Every internet company that started before around 2010 has built their core interactions around "the old web" one which was accessed primarily via a browser on a computer. Companies that start with a clean slate, should be building their interactions around how to do whatever the app is supposed to do while leveraging what is unique to people's relationship to their mobile devices. Photo-sharing has become a core part of the way we communicate now. Snapchat built something that provided an experience that leveraged the feeling of privacy and intimacy that is unique to mobile. "Provided an escape from the "maturity" of other online services." Too many parents, aunts, uncles and other "old people" have encroached into the social networks of teens and young people. As a result, they've had a desire to find places to express themselves in places inaccessible by older generations. An important distinction is that it's not just parents and relatives that young people are trying to avoid, but also employers & colleges who are increasingly using "mature" social networks to review applicants. "Leveraged PR even bad PR" The fact that the app got so much press about it being used to sext was perfect PR for the company, as it essentially reinforced the brand experience that it has today. Essentially, "if it's safe enough to send a sext, it's safe for any kind of communication I want to have." And although the safety and security of Snapchat is actually not as advertised, it still enjoys the reputation of having less impact than any primarily web-based service. Building a successful mobile application is one of the hardest challenges to face designers, programmers and entrepreneurs in the history of writing software. Happy to talk to you if you're considering building a mobile app, about what I've learned about the "table stakes" for success.Tom WilliamsTW

If I have a business idea for a large company, how can I give it to them and mutually profit, without them just taking the idea and squashing me?
Probably not the answer you're looking for, but companies have so many unimplemented ideas that the likelihood of partnering to implement someone else's idea is really low. And besides which, the idea is not something that has much value in and of itself. If you're passionate in the idea, build it yourself. That's the only way you can have leverage.Tom WilliamsTW

How has Uber grown so fast?
Obviously, they do the fundamentals well. Good brand. Good experience. Good word of mouth. Good PR. Etc. Etc. But after my interview with Ryan Graves, the head of Global Operations at Uber (https://www.growthhacker.tv/ryan-graves), it became clear that they are operationally advanced and this is a huge part of their success. I'll explain. Uber isn't just a single startup, it's essentially dozens of startups rolled into one because every time they enter a new city they have to establish themselves from essentially nothing (except whatever brand equity has reached the city ahead of them). This means finding/training drivers, marketing to consumers, and building out local staff to manage operations for that city. This is where Ryan Graves comes in. He has a protocol of everything that must be done, and in what order, and by who, to ensure the best chance of success in a new city. So how has Uber grown so fast? Essentially, they figured out how to grow in one locale and were relentless about refining their launch process to recreate that initial success over and over in new cities. No plan works for every city, and they've had to adapt in many situations, but it is still a driving factor for their success.Bronson TaylorBT

My startup just failed. What could I start to "immediately" generate $1,000/mo?
The quickest path to cash is almost always consulting. Be very specific about what it is you can offer. Don't just offer "business consulting". Find a niche and serve it. Reach out to your network, including friends and family and ask if they need or know of anyone who might want to hear about what your consulting has to offer. That will be way faster than trying to go at it from scratch or cold calling. If you call 100 people in your network this week, you will have a consulting gig within 3 weeks. Good luck, and let me know if you'd like advice on entering a digital marketing/lead generation consulting niche. I've grown from zero to $8,000 of monthly recurring payments in the last 40 days!
