Are you business smart?

prove your philosophy of how to run a business...

tell me what you think...

You have a startup website/business, for example, a new content site that is growing, you are making $2K a month, with expense of $3.5K a month, with a small team of employees included in the expense. You are taking care of the most aspects of the site, working 16 hours a day, like SEO & marketing, content update, sponsor testing, small design work, thinking of new ideas, working with programmer, etc.. you get the picture...

You believe in your heart that once the traffic will grow, you will make, lets say $5 million a year profit within 2 years. However you have one problem, all the quality control of employees, and the daily chores listed above, would be getting to you and overwhelming you, how would you proceed with this project. Please take into account, that you have a partner and his philosophy on this project is to start hiring more people, manage them, and minimize the role of everyday operations. He simply doesn't believe that such daily chores listed above should be the owner/CEO's job, and that our job is to think of ideas, innovation and put them to work managing people because that's his current involvement and mindset on how to approach a business.

This will require getting a nice size loan (as current financial capital is small), put most of the work on the people, and test the business model. Such jobs that would have to be given to people are SEO & marketing, content update, sponsor testing, small design work, quality control of the employees themselves, and so on.

With all the above details, what would you do at this point? how would you proceed with this project, and with what decisions will you make this project become successful?

If you give me a few minutes of your thoughts, and it influences my decisions and I become successful with this project, I will come back in the future to find you and prove to you how much I appreciated your time and input.
