28- exit strategy

To be honest, I don’t think this is a question I can answer without seeing what happens. There’s no way to know a business’s success until you see how the market reacts. If I see a plateau in the business and the work I put in isn’t justified by my return, I will try to sell it. If it gets incredible yet sustained growth, I’d love to pass it down, as long as that is what my children were interested in, but I also might sell it. I don’t even know if I will have kids at this point; I have no way of answering that question without the facts.


That being said, this mentality will influence all of my decisions. If my business started sinking, my idea of an opportunity will narrow, and if it succeeds I will broaden my idea of one. The more resources, experience and success I glean will determine what happens next.

    Hello,

    Great job with your post. I totally agree wit you when it comes to wanting to step back and see what happens before deciding what to do with your business. Based on projections I personally decided that I would want to sell my business but only because I would want another challenge. Mainly because I am a person who loves change. Your idea looked very promising and I hope that you can bring it to life soon!

30 Final

I think my favorite experience with this class is the interactive nature of it. If we weren’t in the small groups, we wouldn’t have had the chance to see each other’s ideas evolve and grow. It was nice to have a few specific ideas that we could follow along with our own. I don’t think of myself as an Entrepreneur quite yet, but I do think I have a different perspective on things. To those who come into the course, I would say be creative in your posts. The more you invest in your posts, the less it will seem like an assignment and the more it will seem like something you’ve created.

14A- Tenacity

1)     This course has assignments that require more of you than just waiting until 8 PM the night of the due date and throwing out any answer. Going into this course, I didn’t realize how open-ended these assignments were, meaning I thought my answers were one of a million, but after reading the posts from others in my group, I realized we all have such different perspectives on how we approached problems. After I picked up on that, I began seeing the value in these posts and looked at them as much more than a simple assignment. I think one of the best ways to keep up with this course is to take a second to realize the value behind each assignment, and take them seriously. 2)     I think one of my most memorable “giving up” moments would have to be in freshman year of high school. I got sick and would get incredibly tired to the point where I couldn’t lift my arms, but I went to doctors for almost a year without getting diagnosed. That was one of the h...
