Managers / People w/ direct reports -- What are the things your direct reports do that make you valu
Good: Overcommunication on things that matter - verification that they're doing the right thing, concerns, ideas, etc. Checking that documents are the most up to date versions. Checking that it's OK to delete certain things. Providing solutions, not just problems - "This is broken, but...- v0rtex

Profit sharing / bonus compensation rather than a high base salary?
Hi there, I am a senior employee at a small, new (3 year old) digital marketing agency that's been growing very rapidly. Joined about a year ago and they've doubled in size since then. I expect the company to continue to grow at a rapid pace (we just leased a much larger office to cope with...- v0rtex

Anyone work in advertising?
http://clientsfromhell.net (somewhat serious), http://www.inbound.org/ (bit spammy, tech/SEO focus) I work in agencyland for a small digital marketing shop (which I love). Seems that anyone who is successful in this industry is too busy working to have any time to post about it on forums. Large...- v0rtex

Looking to build knowledge on how to raise audience for an e-commerce shop
Here's a knowledge-dump of things I've learned being on the periphery of a number of successful digital marketing campaigns at various agencies: Pay Per Click (PPC) is a waste of money unless you're spending enough, in the right area, to make an impact. Spending $100 a month even on the right...- v0rtex

Recommmend Me a Chair For Computer Use
Another Embody fan here. Great chair. If you're in a profession where you're spending 10+ hours a day in a chair then it's a worthwhile investment to get the most ergonomic chair you can find for yourself.- v0rtex

Know anything about this watch?
What's the movement look like? Is it definitely authentic? Wife picked up a Patek at a flea market for $50. Looked pretty good until you opened it up and the movement was obviously a cheap generic one.- v0rtex

Carpal Tunnel Experiences?
Good chair (recommend Herman Miller, pricey but an investment) Getting adequate sleep (if I'm running a heavy sleep debt my wrists feel it before anything else) Getting adequate hydration (too much coffee, same thing) These exercises help too.

Eames Lounge Chair copies... worth it?
I have a few knock-offs (Noguchi table) and a few real vintage pieces (Eames lounge, Saarinen tables) and the legit versions bring me much more satisfaction to use, look at and enjoy. I regret buying the knock-offs even though they were cheaper, and don't regret any of the vintage purchases...- v0rtex

Carriers like simple mobile
Because they're "virtual carriers" (forget the technical term for it), they just lease access to equipment from the big networks that manage their own infrastructure (AT&T, Verizon, Sprint, etc) so their startup costs are low - they don't need to pay for the R&D or for future infrastructure...- v0rtex

Having a tux custom tailored?
I got a Thick as Thieves tux and was very happy with it. Midnight blue, unlined, peak lapels. Certainly nicer than anything I could find OTR in that price range.- v0rtex

The reading room - books on business, management, productivity and so forth...
Two more votes for Cialdini's Influence and Dale Carnegie. The E-Myth Revisited is about how to build systems to run a company, which was the "a-ha" moment for me in working out how people scale businesses. Alan Weiss' "Million Dollar Consulting" is about how to run a solo consulting practice...- v0rtex
