Money-Era: is there a sense in continuing?

This is my first post after a very long time of inactivity. I apologize.

Plenty of things happened. One of them was starting another website, a niche this time, aimed at providing a service. A blend of online-real life activity. Totally different than a blog, just a pure e-commerce one. It started mid-January and is aimed at local market.

WeddingChannel.com success story

WeddingChannel.com success story

Back in 1996 it was much more difficult to establish an online business; there were no e-commerce platforms, no ready to implement billing systems or no software to run an internet shop on. So Tim and Ray, the founders of the business whom I introduced in my previous post about the WeddingChannel.com, decided to go with a venture capital company, which helped to create the WeddingChannel.com website. They also acquired funds to advertise to big brands right from the beginning.

The innovative approach to improve customer buying experience convinced two key industry players: Continue reading…

WeddingChannel is a brilliant example of making money online success

Back in 1997 two friends: Ray Dhake and Tim Gray got together to discuss the matter of establishing a website targeted at weddings. Tim came up with the idea when he realized how much trouble there was to find the right wedding gift. As soon as he found out that so many other people have the very same problem, he talked to his friend, Ray.

Generosity pays

Generosity pays off

So when you are thinking about forming a new partnership you must make sure that your potential partner is the right person to do business with. The best approach is to trust your guts. Even if you do not know the person very well, trust your intuition. Remember the first feeling you had when you thought of doing business together. This is the most important. Keep it simple.

While this view is probably not very far from the truth, it is somewhat limited - I recently I discovered a new way of doing business. It allows to enter the areas which are not very well known to you. Continue reading…
