Thanks very much for your thoughts.
Out of curiosity, how have you been funding yourselves thus far?
We've been self-funded.
Regarding promotion, there seem to be smart high schoolers on Quora. Even if you don't link to your site directly in your answers, if you write good questions, answers, and comments on answers in categories you're interested in, then people will probably visit your profile, right?
Yes. The time cost associated with writing high quality answers from scratch is high. But there's probably some low hanging fruit to be plucked in the direction of looking for questions asking about things that our articles address. Thanks for reminding us.
Quora celebrity Alex K Chen is one of our advisors, is a coauthor at our Quora blog, and has been compiling material useful to Cognito Mentoring.
Here's a list I made a while ago, can't vouch for quality.
Thanks, this is great, it's the sort of thing I was hoping for when I posted.
Have you thought about creating such a forum? How many of your 70 advisees would appreciate a forum/chat room/etc.? Could be self-sustaining/growing.
James Miller made a suggestion along similar lines. We're investigating this.
