Who likes my idea?

The first thing you want  to know is whether people like your business idea. You had a chance to tell others what business you want to do in less than 60 seconds. The time was too short but still participants got a high level concept. They have given their opinion of which ideas they think are good. I have summarized what participants have selected as good ideas. 

Now start preparing to recruit team members for your project. To execute the project in this course, you must have minimum 3 team members. Some of you have already joined the course as a team of 2 persons. Such teams will need to recruit minimum 1 more team member. Ideally, you should try to recruit 2 more to make the team size of 4. Now please find out from the attached spreadsheet, who liked your idea. These participants, who already like your idea, are very likely to join your team. Call them, email them, try to meet them, take them out for a dinner or a coffee. You have to do every thing to sell them your idea. In real life, if you can not find people to join your team then your business will never be able to take off.

If you need any help, then call me.

Good luck for your new venture,
