Maybe I missed the  mark, but I don`t exactly understand the site.  The site domain refers to biz, but the site seems to claim to have links to helpful articles and resources  that don`t necessarily relate to biz...

Am I missing something here?

Villarreal,

Do you have a brother in the AF? I worked with a Villarreal and you have some resemblance of him.

Must be a good looking guy... lol.  Kidding.

Seriously though, I do have brothers in the military.  I am the oldest of all my siblings, but I have:

- 1 Brother in the US Army out of Germany.  Currently deployed to Iraq for his 2nd time.
- 1 stepbrother in the Air Force out of Abilene, TX., currently deployed to Iraq
- 1 stepbrother in the US Marine Corps.  Will be deploying to Iraq in a few weeks for his first time.


I AM VERY PROUD OF ALL THEM FOR THEIR SACRIFICES!

Nope, wasn`t good looking at all.  Just joking!

Sounds like you have a family representing. You have every right to be proud. Thank them for their service for me!

Nice website too! I see it could be a pretty large venture. Ever thought of Advertising it in the AF, Navy, and Army Times?

Considering I`m not making any money from it, I haven`t yet.  To be honest, I don`t expect to make much(if any) money from it and that`s ok.  It wasn`t the intent. Maybe in the future if something evolves from it, I`ll reconsider, but for now... I`m just glad people actually use it.  If you know any military folks, please tell them about it.

Hey Mr. "V":

I`ve viewed your website and found it to be interesting.  Good luck I know you will do well.  I am a Naval Vet (`74-`90) and I started my coffee roasting biz back in `94.  I owe a lot to my dedication from the military to my success in business today.  We do proudly serve a number of companies over in Iraq and will continue to do so along with our other customers.  So keep up the good work with your website.

Oh Yah!

I appreciate your comments CoffeeGuy. MyMilitaryClassifieds.com was something I launched in hopes others would find it useful. If it blossoms, GREAT! If not, no harm done.
 
I have a few ventures that I really want to pour my heart into and get off the ground. One is The Military Entrepreneur Conference Expo I have mentioned here in the forums before.
 
I had hoped to already have it launched, but under the circumstances at the time, I had to postpone. I`m currently developing that project. I hope to have something ready to launch in January and actually have the event sometime between July-Nov of 2008.
 
Sponsorship is going to be the biggest hurdle.
 
Semper Fi,
Sammy

sammy - excellent idea! let me in! lol
 
i really like the seminar/get together idea. another idea to consider, a social network just for service members? such that they can meet significant others, make friends, connections in other locations/branches.  imagine a facebook just for service members. is there such a network already? with the number of soldiers (and most likely growing), the potential could be very good. not to mention the convenience/service you have to offer.
 
any thoughts?
