New Venture

I remember waiting for my LLC papers, You just want to get started

Great, I remember how excited I was to own my own business. I started out pretty young so I was gung ho and thought I needed tons of new equipment, and thought I would always have plenty of work to pay for it........... that's funny, I don't care who you are. I'll get dug out one of these days but the last couple of years have been tough. Keep your overhead low and you'll enjoy yourself every day. I never regret it at all.......

Owning your own business is great... I've always wanted to and it was almost 10 years ago that I was able to take the plunge. It was (and still is) a lot of hard work but the rewards have been great.

Ok boys. I just ordered my business cards and a few other things. Here it is:

Yeah - its Green! :jester: To tell the truth the only reason I went with green is because I liked the graphic. I would have gone with just about any other color but hey - green is the color of money! :banana:

I asked Big to put that there for Jerry because his son used to have that bumper sticker on his van. I just thought it was funny and Jerry would get a chuckle out of it.

hey John, my Dad has a bunch of tapes from a small reel to reel recorder that he made in the late '60s and early '70s. can you do anything with those?

 

[mcmopar]

Don't have any hardware that would do a reel to reel conversion as of yet.

Business cards and scanner arrived today. The rest of the equipment gets here tomorrow. Had a meeting with some marketing people today and was duly impressed. I'll need some more $$$ to deal with them but they are flexible. I'm still going to investigate other options as well before I start spending money I really don't have on advertising. Taking the plunge now!

Dave, I found a place that might be able to help with your dad's tapes. Check them out and see what you think.

I got the website up and running today. Its simple, nothing fancy but it gets me out there in the digital world. I can add more info and redesign as I go.

I've even got a playlist of selected music on there. More songs will be added but I have to convert from wav to mp3 first since the website only supports mp3 and mp4 music files.

 

[Hoosier Bird]

Website looks great. I hope you have to hire a couple of people just to keep up.......... :yesnod:

 

[mcmopar]

Thanks Gary. Being too busy would be a nice problem!

 

[69hemibeep]

I like the web site. How is the customer base coming along?

 

[mcmopar]

Well, I've only officially been in business one day. The official "opening" was yesterday so it will take awhile. I installed my LightScribe CD/DVD drive this morning and played around with labeler today. I still need to work on it but I kind of get the idea. There are still a few things to learn about the hardware and software but I can make do right now until I get some time to play around with everything. I've got some CAD work to do this afternoon for a company I've been helping off and on since Oct. of '08. Until things get rolling they are my #1 customer.
