Hi, guys!
At adultnetsurprise forum was a poll about business mistakes.

But there was not too much replies.

Maybe this forum visitors can tell something about their mistakes?

Please, share your experience with us

xLaborJames · 04-30-2006, 01:13 PM

not being able to manage my time smart is a mistake i made early on and try to avoid now with keeping tabs on everything. I keep track of my entire day and schedule everything out now not like i did years ago lol

Time management and going into biz with a Model and thinking she could act professional and not emotional ... you live and learn

ravo · 04-30-2006, 01:32 PM

Giving up my paysite in 1999; just when things were set to explode. duh!

Lesson: If something is not losing you money, hang on to it. You never know when the timing is right, or you gain the skills to really make it successful.

nexcom28 · 04-30-2006, 02:49 PM

My biggest mistake is reading stupid threads on GFY that don't do anything to furthur my empire..

XMagazine · 05-01-2006, 04:00 AM

Guys, thx for your time and attention!

As I understood the main mistake was not reinvesting money back into the business.

But i couldn't believe that was the only one.

Maybe there were some other business mistakes that you did not mention before?

P.S. Please take this question seriously as I need this information for the marketing research i'm doing

P.P.S.
2:Spunky, Investing all your money in hookers and blow is a serious deal!

How much did you spend on doctors then?

VicD · 05-01-2006, 06:35 AM

Most of my mistakes are caused by beer, so i don't drink anymore

martinsc · 05-01-2006, 06:41 AM

i think my main mistake was\is wrong time management...

Choppa · 05-01-2006, 06:45 AM

Welcome to GFY

think one of my first mistakes when turning 18 was not to follow the advice of my uncle and invest with him in properties in the middle 80's, many of those properties currently are at 500-700% of there value from 1985

sickkittens · 05-01-2006, 06:46 AM

Spending too much time at GFY.

LittleSassy · 05-01-2006, 07:37 AM

welcome to gfy...

top three mistakes would be not takig this biz seriously,lack of time mangement and giving up.

E$_manager · 05-01-2006, 07:46 AM

I don't remember i did any really big mistakes.
It's not that i never comitted them, just try not to remember not to get upset.
In fact my big offence is that i am lazy.
That is not a mistake, right?

RawAlex · 05-01-2006, 07:53 AM

Top three mistakes?

1 - not sticking to my guns
2 - getting a partner when I didn't need one
3 - not getting lawyer in the end.

Alex

It feels like you have a tough bussiness.
What about the gun?
You had to fire back?
