Starting an Online Presence Part II of Proforma

Ok, it's been a while since I updated this blog, so i guess it's time to do so. When I entered in the Proforma Phase, I figured that the next options would be cake. Well, not so. I completed my proforma, the 50 month projection, policies and procedures, and sales policies. We were working on the premise of gaining some seed money to get started. When we started seeking funding, I started to get a bad taste in my mouth. For one, it seemed as if the potential investors wanted to change our entire business plan to make it conform to other existing business's. That really bothered me, since our business model was a strong departure to existing solutions. By changing what we were, your risk loosing the very passion you had dreamed of. One of the ideals of entepreneurs have is the passion to do something they want to do. It take determination, skill, and humility to be successful. If we hold to the ideals of achieving perfection alway in play, you can balance Logic with Risk.

Balancing your resonsibilites with enjoyment will translate efficiently into higher productivity from your exployee's. I've been around so many environments that do not approach their day to day responsibilities with zeal or in some cases understanding. I used to be guilty of the same problems I have high lighted above. I finally changed my approach to daily management with one of respect and honor. I learned that without the support of your workforce, you won't stand a chance to succeed. You will see morale increase, productivity increase, and the overall well being of your company increase as well.

Ok Back to my delima. I can use some insight as well, so please email me with information. As it sits right now, I'm developed my business strategy and am working on other income generation techniques to fund my dream.. Who knows, it may work..

Remember, Risks are mere Opportunities in disguise. A mantra that everybody needs to follow.
