I am a retired person who is also a disabled combat veteran. I would like to start an online business in order to stay sane and improve my economics. I have a graduates degree and some past experience running a business. I'm looking for a volunteer mentor with e-commerce experience. Anybody out there who wants to share their knowledge and help a Vet ?

Welcome to this web site . Sounds exciting.

I am a SCORE Counselor and both SCORE and I do volunteer to help and mentor.

It would be great to see your business plan and / or talk to you.

Thanks for responding to my post. I am scheduled to meet a SCORE Volunteer/ mentor here in Brockton, MA on Thursday, 05/22/08. His name is David Small. He belongs to the local Chamber of Commerce. I would also like to meet you, LUCKIEST. However, I think that you are pretty far away. What you do sounds very interesting to me. I know that I will need an accountant. I am anticipating a few referrals. But, I'm curious, how does one work with an accountant over a great distance and online ? I would think that an accountant would have a couching role that requires a lot of face-to-face interaction. But, what do I know-I'm just starting out with this e-commerce venture. Give me a little feedback.

This sounds like what you might be looking for at my website: www.kdearnyourdreams.com

My organization did around 1/4 of a million in business in
the one year that I have been working my home based business. Last
Month's check was over $1,900 on top of my 50% profit I make off everything
that I personally move through my business. Over 90 people have joined my
team in that short time. Also I pay very little for advertising to have
interested contacts drop into my computer. Everything I do is on the
internet or the phone or mail. Check out my website only if you are
seriously interested.

All the Best,
and Good Luck

Dear Money Guy

Sorry it took me so long to respond. I have been working extremely hard at setting up the e-commerce business. It is interesting that you are a SCORE counselor. His initials are D.S. Maybe you know him. I must say that he is extremely helpful. I will post my progress with my venture in the near future. I'm setting up shop and developing a business plan simultaneously. What a load. But, I am having fun.

I would love to continue our dialogue. I can use all the help that I can get. By the way, the name of my new - found company is Greater Green Enterprises, LLC. My first website will be greatergreenproducts.com. I'm aiming for August 15th for the grand opening of my internet store. Pressure!!

TakeCare,CatmanCharlie

Hi Domesticlist,

thanks for the upbeat response to my venture. I will take you up on your offer of help. I would like to find drop shippers who manufacture eco-friendly attire. I think that this would be a good thing to pursue. Even if I have to go international. Also, I am looking for a lawyer who specializes in e-commerce; particularly someone local.

Waiting Appreciatively.

Hi DomesticList,

First of all, what is your business about? Secondly, what are some of the best ways to get your web site noticed?
