Only reason why I entered was because I was using their service, saw the contest, and I needed a camera upgrade. Checked the entries and no one had really entered, so I entered, and won....or so I thought.

Anyway to make it so that if a user tries to abandon our shopping cart by clicking back or X out of the page the chat box will popup asking if they need any help?

Appreciate the feedback. Just had an internal discussion here and we all agreed that even though it may convert better, we don't want customers to have that feeling of shadiness when they get to the checkout page. We've changed it.

Well we've A/B tested several pages, and showing $5/month + shipping on the homepage converted better than just $10/month with free shipping. We may just change it to say $10/month with free shipping so there is no confusion.

My advice - do your own PR for as long as you can, don't hire a PR firm. I fell prey to the persuasive tactics of one firm, which over charged, over promised, and delivered nothing.

I'm not affiliated with these guys, was just basing it off their 'about' page that they are for college students.

Did you take a minute to actually read into it? It is for the college demographic only - targeted towards users on college campuses.

Cool app, I think this will do well with the college scene. I just recently graduated and I know this would have come in use many times. Quick question, how are the payments handled so that the user who completes the task definitely gets pa

I'm also very motivated after a gym session. I get up around 830am, eat breakfast, work until about 2pm...then I hit the gym until about 4 with some cardio and lifting..and then I shower, eat dinner, and get back to work.

You don't need a link. I was at the YC NYC event too and the Grubwithus guys did indeed do this.

I've been working from home for the past 2 years. It's always funny how friends say "you're so lucky you get to work from home while I have to go to work". Truth is, most would never be able to make it through the 'work at home' life becaus

Don't base your business around getting into YC. You don't need YC to grow your business, it's just a very helpful stepping stone.
