    Started a small company this winter break!

    Thanks everyone again! I just recently went through all of my owned web domains and cleaned things up and bought a few new ones. I am planning on starting a blog to help give more young entrepreneurs ideas to get financing and get the ball rolling on their ideas. Also good spending habits, first...

    PETER2: In Memory, R.I.P.

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Peter2 was an honest man with great and insightful advice. I have PMed back and forth with Peter2 and SteveO probably the most on this forum. I was wondering why he had stopped responding. I cannot thank Peter enough for all his help. Those who never got a chance to talk to Peter can still...

    Started a small company this winter break!

    Haha I would love too. But I will be at school during the B & P and there is no way to know if my schedule will be clear at that time! I want to come really bad though. I will have to look at the thread and see how long registration will be open, maybe I can sign up last minute. If...

    Started a small company this winter break!

    Thanks bflbob! I had a meeting with VR4playa today. I wasn't orginally planning on scaling this business at all, but all of your suggestions got us talking about possibilities for next year. I should probably get started on a business plan! :coffee: :) -Alex

    Started a small company this winter break!

    Thank you everyone for the kind words and advice! I just recieved a few accounts receivable today in the mail. Three checks for a few driveways we had done very early in the morning. Two of the checks had personal thank you letters for the extra care we took while working on the driveways...

    The driveways around here can fit about 8 or 9 cars on them (not length wise, parked in rows of 3). So they are not really all that HUGE. It is a very suburban area. People usually contract out their services at the beginning of the year. I would say for a 3 car garage driveway it would cost you...

    How would you purchase it?

    Not quite sure I am understanding the wording either. Also...what 50 Million Euro palace is going to cost 1/5 of it's total assessed value to upkeep per year? This is just a bad deal to begin with...lol -Alex

    Started a small company this winter break!

    I hadn't planned on expanding that much, but it is feasible. Very good recommendations as well. Thank you for those. Do you know how much it would cost to set up a call center + buy an 800 number? We had planned to charge $5 extra to salt when we went out, but we didn't make it over to Home...

    Yes, I did forget to mention that we will up the prices next season. Currently, around here, $20 might get you a one car garage driveway done...the thing is most people around here have either 3 car garages or 2 car garages. No one wants to spend $30+ dollars on their driveway around here...and...

    Started a small company this winter break!

    Hey everyone. I hope you all are settling into 2009 nicely. I created a small business during my last two weeks of winter break. It is not a multi-millionaire story...but I thought I would share it with all my great pals here at the Fastlane and maybe some of the other younger members here can...

    Supplements Company

    Michael, thank you very much for your contributions to the thread!! REP++ You make very valid points which I have taken into consideration. I feel that you can get lost in the massive place that is bodybuilding.com. Also, they have fair prices, but we will be undercutting EVERYONE. I probably...

    So my buddy James is in great shape. He is about 6'1...215lbs...6 or 7% body fat. He was rejected from being a contestant on American Gladiators because he is bigger than the gladiators haha. They even offered him an interview to be a gladiator. Everyone at our local Lifetime fitness knows...

    A dream is just a dream.

    Very true. I'm glad you quoted what I said again as well, it serves as a good reminder to me to keep doing just that. When I have a good idea (or even a bad one), I make it a point to write it down, even if it means getting up out of bed. I catalog them all on my computer, and go over them later...
