Comment on You won’t be bought by Google, so Quit Fooling Yourself; you need a sound financial model! by Siva

A very informative article. It is surprisingly true that today’s popular IT ventures are based solely on promoting some new idea rather than building a healthy revenue model. While the traditional business-men think of creating personal wealth through sustainable revenues, the new-age IT related promoters actually believe that they can find a bigger fool to buy their business void of any revenue and create personal wealth in the process. It is called a “bubble” when the fact that you can sell it off later at a higher price is a solely sufficient reason to buy something instead of its inherent value.

The web-based businesses, even the ones with a fairly decent revenue model need to be careful with their financial projections because IT industry has literally no entry barriers. Anyone with a decent novel idea can get loaded with Dollars from some Venture capital firm and become a serious competitor almost overnight. The assumption of steady market-share or growing market-share needs to be taken with a pinch of salt while evaluating IT financial proposals. The maturity of the financial model builder can be seen from the realistic nature of the assumptions.

I find it interesting that you say a business owner/entrepreneur has to set goals high..sometimes high goals may seem a little intimidating so setting mid range goals may be more of a motivator to some people. I like the mentioned step process because it breaks down how a person can succeed in their choices just by using a thought process. I am a person who wants to work for myself so reading this article gives me more insight to what I should do to achieve my long term goal of running my own business.

I struggle sometimes at work in finishing projects. I can see the end result but cannot always see the best (or any at times) way to get there. You make a very good point about 7. Resolve your day with some cleanup and reflection. Whenever my work seems stressful, one of the best things I can do is organize everything I have to do which helps to get a better grasp on how to solve the problem.

Yes. goal is very important. I joined this one paid to post site and I have to write articles in order to earn. Every month I set a goal, how much I want to earn from this site. And throughout the whole one month, I work hard to create interesting articles to reach my goal. So far, all 3 goals for 3 continuous months are all reached.

That’s the important of setting goal and you have wrote how to set a goal in an interesting way. Kudos!

Your story is very insightful, and I think it is so true. That you need to set goals not only in your life but also about what you want to do with it. This blog help me in a lot of ways, thanks for your insight.

Comment on Team Cohesion and Building Great Things Quickly by Kaycee

I truly appreciate learning more about small start ups or teams like these who knock out a project in record time. With the economies slowing in the UK and the US and around the world, it is inspiring to hear about a group like this. Plus the end result is something I may use as an avid Twitter-er. Once my brother finishes his degree in Networking & Telco, and I graduate from Web dev, we will be attempting small projects and start ups similar to this although probably not as successful at first. Thanks for this!
