My top resource is David, the app developer. I chose David as my most valuable resource because App development is the aspect that I am the least familiar with. Having an effective and easy to operate app is very important. I know that when an app or website is poorly designed or difficult to use I tend to avoid it. That is why I plan to use David's knowledge and experience to my advantage.
Hi Sarah,
ReplyDeleteI think you did a good job of identifying the unfair advantages you would have when starting a business. I particularly agree with you in the sense that start-up capital and close connection are important to pursuing your idea. Money is needed for anything to proceed and having an app developer who can help you through the creation of this app will make the transition process and any possible trouble shooting much smoother.
Hello Sarah,
ReplyDeleteI think it is great that you showed some resources in terms of books that can help guide you in the right direction in your business venture. Also, both your dad and uncle will be so vital in the start-up phase of your business because of the knowledge they can give to you as well as their past experiences. Some times stories about successes and failures of other people's past can help so much more than what you will read in a book. Also, having capital to begin will be invaluable.
