As I have mentioned in previous feedback forms I lost my last offline B2B networking business due to severely breaking my leg, even though I broke my leg I still tried to do everything myself including network at events, as you can imagine it wasn’t easy (quite funny actually) holding a glass, shaking hands, and trying to give out and collect business cards on one leg, I used to have to get someone I knew to stand behind me encase I fell back, any way it was a big lesson to learn, not to get to attached to your business and continue fighting for something that has no future, it’s a business! And eventually it folded. I reflected on the hours I spent chasing my tail and running myself into the ground, I decided if / when I start my new online / offline business venture, I wont do it alone! And it will need to have the finances, tools and founder team in place for my past experience to never happen again! My business plan and financial forecasts has been given the thumbs up by every business person and support organisation I have spoken to, to the point I was placed on a high growth program, but still raising the finances and recruiting the right team to get it started are the hurdles that have brought me to a full stop! Visual Situation to date - I explain it as when I lost my last business I fell to the bottom of a well, all my contacts and new associates keep saying “get the business going and we can work together” they are all accumulated around the top of the well shouting down to me, and as much as I am trying to climb the walls to try and get out, no-one is actually throwing me a ladder to get back up to get the show on the road. I am so eager to get back out there and I know it will eventually happen, so in the meantime I am focusing on improving my leadership skills and defining the vision of how and what I need to do by listening and learning from the Founders Club team! Action is needed!! Thanks a Million for sharing your knowledge, I will join you for a cigar Rich when I finally make it!! Hi Rich & Todd

One realization that hit me was that you need to hire from the top down, not the bottom up. The sooner you can replace yourself in day to day operations the better (no prizes for guessing that's one mistake I'm making). Looking forward to reaping the benefits of the Founders Club Cheers Great video guys. One realization that hit me was that you need to hire from the top down, not the bottom up.

I've never had anyone put it this way. I have been putting things together, looking for a payoff, then moving on to the next project, all on my own. From this day on I will be always thinking and moving in this direction. Thank You for helping me see what it truly is that I want to get out of my business. It's like someone just took off a blindfold! To be honest, I had never even thought about my business in this way. I’ve never had anyone put it this way.

I'm fairly new at this but now I realize I'll need to make a few tweeks and changes in order to move to the Founder status. I'm on the right track (creating my own products). My biggest limitations seem to be focus and time. I haven't quit the day job but I look forward to the day. Gotta go... time work on those ebooks!

My problem is similar to others. Finding good partners/team members that can be trusted and are motivated to succeed. To cover some of the trust issues I take the usual precautions... NDA, mail my ideas to myself, etc... I'm also looking into filing a Notice of Invention. But I think finding good people can be difficult. If you can't find the right people your project won't be on track to being a <i>Founder</i> type of business. Jeff Hi Rich and Todd,

I have a HUGE vision as my end result for a product/service I’m starting.

My problem is similar to others. Finding good partners/team members that can be trusted and are motivated to succeed.

To cover some of the trust issues I take the usual precautions… NDA, mail my ideas to myself, etc… I’m also looking into filing a Notice of Invention.

But I think finding good people can be difficult. If you can’t find the right people your project won’t be on track to being a Founder type of business.

Jeff
