Business 2.0

June 20th, 2007

Starting a web company is hard work. You need to have an idea, a blog, then code it, test it, make it look pretty, incorporate, host the app, get a lawyer, launch, market it, support it, and maybe even hire some people.

Before the days of the internet this took many people, now a days sites can be launched by one or two people with very little capital. This is the boat third rail is in. Currently, we are in the middle of our latest and most promising project. This is what we do best but just around the corner comes the “hard part” for people like us. Business crap *yuck*.

I just joined the Web 2.0 (Entrepreneurs) group on facebook and noticed people were talking about this process from a business perspective. “I’m a business guy with no tech skills, what do i do?”

I guess our position isn’t so bad after all since we can get pretty far or even all the way without help. If we didn’t know howto code we’d be screwed. I’m tempted to try and find someone to help out with the business side of things but it would have to be the right person…

anyway back to work…

    Saw your post in that group :)

    I would definitely say you're better off. At least if you can design the idea, you've got a prototype so you're way ahead of any non-coder. Having something presentable in a testable form beats out having the idea any day.

    I'd volunteer to help but at the moment I've already got a lot of projects going on. Drop me a line, though, and I'll see if I can't find someone to help :)
