Hi All:
 
I just came across this forum today, and decided to go ahead and join.  I`ve learned some lessons in previous business ventures, and am now starting up a new one.  I thought it would be good to share some of what I have learned, especially if any of you are going the franchise route.  I am also looking for ideas as I attempt my own `from the ground up` business this time.  Looking to do so on as short of a "shoestring" as possible this time...
 
Good luck to us all!

Hi Frank :-) It`ll be nice to have some expertise on franchising, as that comes up from time to time in the various discussions. What`s your current product or project?

Thanks Craig:
 
Actually, my current product started with a simple eBook about my experiences in the franchise business (you can find a listing for it in the Marketplace - click here for the listing).  But, since I am writing a few other eBooks, I started my own download on demand ecommerce site to sell the eBooks.  And now I am planning on opening this website to other authors of inspirational and educational eBooks, looking to make it easy for the non-computer savvy folks to get their message to their on-line audience. I`m still researching the existing `do it yourself` publishing options out there, and finding them to be somewhat painful.  That is what makes me think that this will become a valuable website.
 
Thanks for the comments!

Very cool...! Welcome to the site; I hope you get involved because I think a lot of people would like to know better ways to publish things. E-Books are on their way, regardless that they haven`t totally caught on yet, so it`ll be helpful advice.

Thanks again Craig:
 
Any suggestions as to how best I "get involved"? I like this site so far because it seems very active, far more so that others I have signed up with.  But I have limited time available for forums.  What`s the best way to go about "being involved" with this site?
