Hello,
I haven't been on this forum in a long time, but I thought I might be able to get some good advice and opinions about what I should do in my current situation...(or if you have been in this position if you would change what you did if you could go back in time).
To make it simple:
I am 20 years old and currently a junior in college. I have completely incorporated and created my own company which I am very proud of with the help of free start-up help at my college, as well as guidance from some very successful entrepreneurs. However, the company has not "launched" yet and the website is not live..(although it is complete and I can do so at any time).
The (good) dilemma is:
Next semester (January to April) I am going to be studying abroad in Italy and traveling around Europe for about 4 months. I made this decision after I completed my company, but I am extremely anxious and excited to start my company. I have set it up so that I can work regardless of location, as long as I have my computer.
So the question is: Do I wait until I return to officially "launch" the company, or do I get it started now for the 3 months that I am still in the U.S? Just don't want to start and stop, as well as give the reigns to someone else while I'm gone....
I really would appreciate all opinions and advice, I could really benefit from the Fastlane community!
