When you get to the point that the graphics for the bottles are the next thing on the list I can help you with that. We repacking things into bottles, jugs and pails and buy labels for all those...

To get the discussion flowing for you @Penguin, what are you passionate about?

What business idea are you looking to pursue and how are you planning to execute it?

Just by sharing that...

Yes, easier for you. But time consuming for someone else whose time is money.

Crawl before you can walk. Learn as much as you can on your own before approaching someone and asking for free time...

It's so much easier if I can just speak to someone online rather than constantly making a new thread.

I am a senior in high school ITCHING to start a small business and I'm just fixated over it. I will be starting college next year and NEED a lot of advice, and need to know how I can balance my...

Penguin, I like your ideas for the most part. Whether you're making juice or developing games, I think that you can do whatever you set your mind to.

As to games, I think there is a hole in the...

Right now it isn't exactly a serious thing I do, just something I do on the side when I can find a qualified developer (I rarely look). I believe I can turn this into a very profitable thing, but...

I am joking, although I do appreciate it.

I also have another question: for the last two years I've made a few thousand from assembling game projects with freelance developers. Basically what...

Feel free to post any questions on the forum. I know what I know, but many others here know things that I don't that would probably be even more helpful.
This way you continue to get free advice...

Finish college. Be looking for ways to make money on the side to keep the entrepreneurial juices flowing, but take the opportunity in front of you to learn something about business, and economics.

Would you mind if I messaged you time to time asking business-related questions? I trust your opinions and I think you could help a lot.

Yeah, but if you really want to do this and believe in it now is the time that separates dreamers from doers. So maybe you can't get started right this moment. Maybe you do something else to save up...

Now this sounds ridiculous, but what about if I manufactured my own bottles? It'd take a ton of work, but it's obviously a lot more profitable.

Now you're getting into the real life meat and potatoes. Anyone can think up ideas, but it's when you start crunching numbers, processes, regulations, and licensing that let's you know if an idea is...

You just did. You have a entire forum of people to learn from that all contribute in their spare time, which combined is a lot of contributions from different perspectives.

On your idea, I think...

I would like some more opinions from you all, and I would really like to develop an online friendship with another entrepenuer here so that I could learn from them. Thanks

I will do, also even if I used one or two preservatives - I still think it'd be alright. I think what I'd have to do since my goal is to create a juice brand which is affordable and high quality...

Also I think the arctic conservation donation proposal is a very good one, to say the least. It would take a chunk out of profits, but I think it'd definitely or potentially grab the consumer.

I'm no expert, but I would put your product in the same category as strict vegetarians. So strict that they don't want you to use a pan that has ever touched a non vegetarian product.

I see it...

Sorry no one responded, though you did post late on a Sunday night.

I think your idea has potential. I can't say it'll be a success because there are so many factors that go into making a business...

I would greatly appreciate some insight

Ok so in the next one or two years, I am planning on setting up my first small business at a local farmers market. I want to sell bottled juices, and I have very high goals. My goal is to create a...

I had several jobs and a few businesses during the 5 years while I was in college... but learning came first. The job was just to get the experience doing different things. Turned out that one of...

Education, experience, maturity, contacts and reputation should be your first objectives on your pathway to owning and operating a successful business. Running a side business is great in the mean...
