[QUOTE="Captain_Commando, post: 4775690, member: 71848"] 1. Time. I'm making this business as a backup measure because I'm running shorter each day on the time left before things get bad again like before my brother stepped in and helped us out. 2. $900 is the MINIMUM I'm striving for, not the maximum. Not necessarily with the business but the total income from the business plus whatever job I can find. I also need to have at least a couple of days free each week to finish my novel. 3. Storytelling for an audience of kids, not gaming with a group of them. Parents will be there too. 4. Small companies that can't afford big company prices for team-building exercises are what I'm aiming the team-building pitch at. DnD has been used for team-building exercises before. 5. Testimonials will be coming soon enough. It's part of the setting up I'm doing this first month. 6. I've received some e-mails offering to work with me or help me with advice. These include a video film/editing guy, a former game company intern and a business startup counselor. This is just the start. I've got plans to improve/expand the business depending on the contacts I make. And of course I dressed up. It was a business networking party. 7. This is a brainstorming thread for my business, not a job interview. If you want to know my total set of marketable skills and references as pertaining to the business, then see the updates I'm making on the site (including the About Us section) by the end of the week. 8. I stated before many, many times that this is on the side. I'd be back in college right now but I missed the deadline for applications. I'd be in culinary school right now but there was a co-signer requirement that couldn't be fulfilled. My talents are geared towards the arts (although I was a science major with advanced credit when I was in college) so I've got to pursue a career that lets me use that. The student loans would have helped a lot. [/QUOTE]
