As we were just asked to create a blog, I feel like my first post should be about my feelings going into the project. Two months. That's all we have to make a profit, from now until the beginning of May before we go off on Senior Service. I'm both nervous and excited about how this project will go and hope that I will be able to gain at least a small profit to contribute.
But I should probably explain the services I'm rendering...
The business I am running is called "Easy Transfer Computers" and the premise of the business is to offer my computer skills for sale, transferring files, create blogs and spreadsheets, teaching others how to use computers as a consultant, etc. I know its weird, but I know a good amount about computers and how to use them, at least with the basics. The basics is really all people need to know, and from there everything will work. I'm offering my services to the business people and elderly of the North Shore of Chicago. I remember my mother and father beginning to use computers growing up, and I knew more than they did even at the young age of eleven. It's important to have our parents and grandparents join our generation's knowledge and love of computers. I know I personally couldn't live without my iphone, ipad, kindle, computer etc... and my parents at times are disconnected from these same feelings.
So, back to my current feelings about the journey on which I am about to embark. It's scary, thinking I'm going to be owning my own business, not too different from my father who is also a small business owner. I have been hearing him over the years talking about managing a small business, and now its my turn. Let's see if all those discussions at the dinner table taught me a thing or two!
