Entrepreneur As You Go

Guess what?

We're starting a business and neither of us has any experience.

Ok, that's not totally true.  I was a child entrepreneur;  I owned lemonade stands and sold string bracelets before these plastic loom things were ever in existence!  I groveled to "investors" so that they would donate to or invest in my causes from Girl Scouts to soccer teams to earthquake victims and beyond.  I even played witness to the start of a business under my lead but was not part of any of the major planning, resource, or grunt work (fail)...and...I'm starting a business.

I'm lucky because I have a lot of resources...one of them is the internet...which is absolutely nothing to scoff at given the boundless podcasts, articles, professional and government websites, online courses and more that could potentially be of use in this endeavor.  I have supportive family and friends and I'm not completely alone as this business idea is my husband's dream.  My biggest resource, perhaps, is that I'm a believer.  I believe in myself. I believe in my own capacity to get things done and to figure things out on-the-go.  As such, and given that I'm probably not the first person to start a business in the age of technology, I've decided to share our journey. Since its really fly-by-the-seat of your pants and I'm learning as I go, the title is fitting: entrepreneur as you go.

Wish us luck!
