            This was one of the areas I was looking into.. I've been reading up on writing books for Amazon, but I just saw they drastically cut their book borrow program. It seems a lot of guys were depending on that for the bulk of their income on Amazon.

              The only real struggle for me is getting to that next level of sales where I can hire a full-time manager. There are many, many projects I want to focus on but need the cash flow to do so. Fortunately I have a proven business model so it's rather easy to calculate what that magic # of daily sales needs to be. Soin the end all I need is....more traffic.

              This is what keeps me motivated working like a dog seven days a week (and on a Holiday too, editing anal interracial videos LOL). But I am extremely close to that magic sales volume number so I see nothing but major changes and more revenue ahead. I'm a fairly happy fellow.

                  Right now my biggest business struggle is trusting others in business.

                  Over the last 15 years I've given ideas to people I've personally worked with in the industry (not so much online) and things worked out great for them. A good few years of income, both of the really successful ones kind of puddled out slowly over time, as a lot of things do. I have a few close people I've known for years that I trust.

                  But what I've been focussed in on like a laser the last last month now, none of them can help with as it's a small programming glitch in a software solution for adult. I've put 2 things together that nobody has thought of, and a little bit of code is getting in the way of them working perfectly together, creating the final solution. Fully open source license, all clear. The bit of code I need made, or will create myself, will not be open source.

                  I'm afraid that if I get a freelancer they will put 2 & 2 together and run with it. My biggest struggle right now is trusting others.

                  The second struggle I'm seeing ahead, is implementing it in such a way that it gains traction before being copied by others that clearly don't have the best interest of our industry / community at heart. I'm not that guy that has those connections. While it will make a ton of money and turn things around for many people, and I have the enthusiastic support of my biller (NDA), I want it to go right and fly into what it's meant to be, not being stifled by my lack of connections.

                  Aside from that life is great and Happy 4th of July everybody !! :-D

                      For me, it's cash.
                      I have built my business on buying out other's established sites, mostly.
                      I have made many deals and many who chose to quit have sold to me. This year I have seen an increase of people wanting/needing to get out and have bought a few profitable sites and similar, but now I am short on cash to move on at the same speed. I will now have to wait and slow down a bit, so earnings catch up for the next, upcoming, yet unknown investment.

                          After almost three years of developing mainstream product and after finally launching it few months ago, struggle is to inform enough people about it, because partners are not doing it, even if we had a deal. There is no way to force them to do what it takes what resulted in 10x less sales. So if a plan was to do something in one year, now it takes 10 years with this rate (disaster).

Until I'm all in again I'll be searching for that thing that could do it. I think the key for me is momentum and speed. I love free flowing ideas and making them happen. I hate the paperwork, procedures and planning required to really do it right.
                            My advice would be to not "look for that thing" but to rather spend your time really understanding what it is that you really enjoy doing, what makes you happy, what you could do 18 hrs a day and wish you had more time in the day.

                            Without really understanding and defining what what you truly love and what makes you truly happy, everything seems kinda interesting in the moment and you have no real framework to guide your decisions, your thoughts and to really help you effectively determine if that's the thing you could do 18 hrs a day, loving every second of it... or not.

                              Start a business doing something you love and you'll never have to work a day in your life... or something along those lines.
