Who can help me write a business plan? Or just maximize revenue!

*JUST YESTERDAY* I registered HerPda.com AND HerPDA.ORG!

We've had HerPalm.com for 60 days and HerComputer.com, MomsComputer.com and HerComputing.com for over 1 year. We even have 3 pending Trademarks on the HerComputer name!!! (one exclamation point for each of em!)

I think there has GOT to be one (maybe even several ;-) Biz Plan(s) in there somewhere.

But I know I need help and guidance to even begin to tap the VAST potential within just a few of these domains... let alone even within just "most" of them, too!

I mean, if they were all to launch more or less "in conjunction," IMHO -- they can almost singlehandedly (so to speak) become a dominant voice throughout the whole Net -- for Women of all shapes and sizes!

Theres so many interrelated Branding Possibilities as well. Maybe this string of domains won't be as "Oxygenated" as some others, but if it's development was more-or-less STARTED from where others left off...?

I know I need some help and guidance, and since Gordon tells me he's to busy to personally "walk me down the path and hold my hand," I must resort to you ;-)

I also own MLMWomen.com and MLMCentral.com which I can do anything with, such as maybe "bartering" one or both of those domains in some way in with the equation? Then -- there's TheLibraryofProgress.com and LibraryofProgress.com, on the back burner.

As the person with the most good, unique Dnames who has done absolutely NOTHING with them :-(

It's certainly not an award to be proud of but I have to unfortunately admit it is kind of fitting (big sigh).

But maybe NOW that can change, who knows?

Oh well, I'm done for the night now... off to sleep...

Hi Paul,

One thing I've learned from Gordon is the importance of a WIN/WIN/WIN philosophy.

That means, think, not only how do YOU win, but also how do OTHERS win too?

So, in this case, if someone helps you out, how will they win? What do they get out of it?

You've noticed with the things I've written up here, I've always tried to think WIN/WIN/WIN....

I want everyone to win. It's the way that YOU can succeed too.... You succeed, and you also help others to succeed as well....

That way, people WANT to help, because they will benefit too. What benefits are you offering to those who help you?

Now, I'm not saying you haven't thought of this, since you may have and I just don't know about it.... (I don't know the history of your offer....)

I like to try to put myself in the other person's shoes. If you were them, why would YOU help out, especially since this will probably COST you something -- your TIME. To many people, time is more important than money.

You might want to think about offering someone a Joint Venture, where you share the benefits in some way.... (Of course, maybe that is what you're doing already and I just don't realize it....)

You may have thought about this, but I thought I'd mention this in case you hadn't....

Best of luck, :)

Dien

Dien,

No to poke fun at an old saying but 100% of nothing is MUCH smaller than a smaller percentage of something bigger.

To be honest I'd have to say that the specifics would have to be worked out on a case-by-case basis, depending of course on individual contribution, but there *will* be compensation for those who help!

We'll just have to work out the details after they contact me.

Dien,

This is *exactly* one of the options available, I guess that *I* am just not presenting the opportunity attractively enough.

I want to turn the Dnames into a monthly revenue stream, past that EVERYTHING is open!

Dien,

Paul,

Whoa, Paul! Slow down. No. Stop for a bit. Catch your breath.

You seem to have more starts, stops, inputs and exits than folks have fingers and toes.

Perhaps it's time to try something a bit different. Why not give it a rest.

Stop thinking about the problem long enough to both clear and relax your mind. Maybe a day or two, maybe a weekend, maybe a little longer. Whatever it takes.

Next, list a FEW of your best options.

Make arrangements to sit down with an entrepreneur -- perhaps over breakfast; someone you can trust, someone who could be objective, (NOT family; and usually NOT a close friend), and pick his or her brain about a business plan. Be brief. Work quickly. You should have time to discuss only the important items. Take good notes. (You can fill in and add details later.) Discussion should be rational, not emotional.

In only one-half hour to one hour, you could have the makings of a fairly acceptable business plan ready for details.

Incidentally, small business plans can be fairly brief. Often, a few pages are sufficient to convey needed information.

Whew!

Paul, just a suggestion. I hope coming on like "gangbusters" doesn't turn anyone off. Hope things work out for you.

Hi Mary,

I thought that was sound and excellent advice! :)

I agree.... Sometimes, you can get too obsessed with something, that you can't see all the options any more. Stepping back, letting go, and just thinking about anything ELSE for a while can give your mind a chance to get those creative juices flowing.... Then, sometimes, when you least expect it, some interesting ideas may start to appear all by themselves, with no effort whatsoever....

What's "really" happening is the subconscious mind can start to get to work. It's always working on those things for you, yet sometimes it's good to give your conscious mind a rest and give your subconscious mind a chance.... And this is not only in business.

Scientists use this technique too. I remember reading how the French mathematician Henri Poincare used this technique to solve mathematics problems....

You can read more about it on this web page

http://www.enchantedmind.com/secrets.htm

(Scroll down to the quote by Henri Poincare....)

Poincare's view was that the subconscious mind is trying all sorts of different combinations of things, without you even being aware of it.... When it comes up with something that seems sensible, you get that "Aha!" feeling and suddenly your conscious becomes alert. That's why you should carry a pen or pencil and paper around with you, so you can jot these ideas down when your subconscious alerts you through that "Aha!" feeling....

I used to use this technique also for my physics research, but it is useful when you have ANY kind of problem to solve, where the solution isn't immediately obvious.... Think it over in your mind, turn it round and see all the angles, FOCUS on the problem.... Then let it go for a few days, and just do something else, preferably something your mind finds relaxing.... And see what happens. Be sure to keep a pen and paper handy in case something pops up....

That's really great advice, Mary. We could all do well by reading carefully your suggestions and letting them sink in.... :)

Thanks, Mary, that was excellent advice. Thanks for sharing it!

You certainly know your stuff.... :)

And if you know someone seeking US Citizenship (or if you are seeking it yourself), point them to Mary's web page, at www.citiz.com , where Mary can help them out....

I hope you can share more here, Mary! I found your post very interesting and stimulating....

Thanks :)
