Pheebs, you should go into public speaking for people wanting to set up their own businesses

I'm serious here, I know I'm not good at getting my point across at the moment but you have acheived a lot in a relatively short space of time, your knowledge and persistance in this would be beneficial and inspirational to others.

Yaaaaaaaaay Wyrel! Remember it's in October so the won't be there now!

Heh - thanks vix! I haven't done public speaking in donkey yonks! Would probably make a complete fool of myself!

I don't feel established enough to be able to give all inspiring talks! I have seen a couple of chaps giving talks on setting up their own businesses and they have so much more under their belt than I! Although I've achieved so far quite a lot in comparison to other major brands... I would prefer to hang fire until I can say 100% that I did something successful

Good idea for the future though! I like it!

I'm sure you could go into it if you wanted to

Nope! Our printers are poop!

I have a print company down the road that does it for me! They made a big big BIG booboo this past week though and I had to be a bit grumpy with them. Doh!

Not to worry, all the stuffs done now and I'm now just waiting envelopes and cello bags!

*edit* and Jen! That's because your business plans are GENIUS!

Can you recommend any business courses or books?

Regarding public speaking I think you'll find it is a business in itself rather than a consequence of another business - the only problem is that there are so many products out there that seem bogus - all sales and marketing techniques to give people cheap slogans, essentially tell them what they already knew.

How do I add a 'CBS is addicted to courses rather than actually doing anything' tag?

Do I need more posts before thats enabled?
