Your Entrepreneurial Goals on Your Own? $
"Being busy does not always mean real work. The object of
all work
is production or accomplishment and to either of these ends there must be
forethought, system, planning, intelligence, and honest purpose, as well as perspiration.
Seeming to do is not doing."
This quote from Edison illustrates a very important point that new businesses must take into
consideration.
Hard work is often said to lead to success, but unfortunately it is only part of the
equation for entrepreneurs and small business owners. The equation becomes even more complicated for entrepreneurs aspiring to start their own technology business, especially when especially when they are exploring waters that have not been tested by other entrepreneurs. Before hard work there must be
careful planning, and hard work must coincide with
knowledge and expertise. However, even the brightest entrepreneurs often
lack certain
skills that may be necessary to succeed. That is why it is necessary for entrepreneurs to network
and form alliances
with individuals and companies that have different areas of expertise.
The purpose of the Engineer-a-Business site is to help
aspiring technology entrepreneurs with minimal business experience
make these connections. Networking can be done by:
1. Exchanging information with other entrepreneurs through their
profile pages.
2. Having conversations with these members on our
online forum.
3. Exploring other organizations with similar visions and philosophies
4. Finding consultants who are willing to provide needed services or clients who may need your services.
5. Reading and exchanging articles related to business strategy and examples of successful
ventures.
To make the most of Engineer-a-Business, click here to create an account. Anyone is welcome to join, but
the site
is intended for college students and technology professionals with fewer than three years of experience.
While our
mission is to serve entrepreneurs and innovators, we recognize that the services of other
consultants are equally important.
In order for a new business venture to be successful, the talents
of experienced specialists must be combined with the visions of entrepreneurs.
