Entrepreneurship

Last week I decided to start my own business.
I am now getting customers, and while I am not boisterous, I am modestly going about achieving my goals even if it takes a while.

I am selling cosmetics and skin care products.

Any other Aspie/Autie entrepreneurs?

Good for you. Smile I am guessing it is a product line that you have confidence in and like the ingredients ?

Me, of course. Anyway good luck. Some can grow into very significant businesses. Providing they are able to successfully sell their own product line.

WAG!  Good luck with you new business!

In addition to being a writer I have a store on eBay, The Happy Rooster at http://www.rooster613.com.  I am #1 on Google for cruelty-free feathers (my main line, although I do sell other things, too.)  I'm not getting rich with this, but it does pay some bills.

Some weird comuter glitch. Posted before I could add any comments.

The idea of cruelty free feathers is a fascinating idea. It immediately differentiates what one is selling apart from the competition. And for all budding entrepreneurs that is a lesson well learned.

One takes a humble product (feathers are pretty humble) and adds value. The value being something intangible (how much did the slogan cruelty free feathers cost?, apart from registration etc), but very good to those who do the buying. No animals get hurt here. Big thing at the moment. Doing my bit for the environment and so on.

This is something I have written about but few get. Very well done there.Cool

I would not touch self-employment with a 10 foot pole if I could avoid it.

RE: Entrepreneurship

I guess Im an entrepreneur in that Im trying to do something in a way that nobody else is. Not sure if I will be successful but after over 10 years research I finally found what I was looking for. I cant say what Ive done. Actually Id just like to sell what Ive discovered by nobody would believe it if I didnt prove it worked first. Anyway its showtime.
