This is an interactive webinar Follow along on Twitter using our #micropreneur hashtag Raise Hand if experiencing Tech Difficulties Ask your questions using GoToMeeting Let’s Begin!
Creating a Supporting Cast I've got a great idea for a web business but I can't program a web site  . . . How do I find people do that for me?  How much does it cost?  How do I choose hosting technologies?
Advisors Should I put together an early Product Advisory Board? If so, how do I do that, and what compensation should be considered?
Building a Skillset If I don't have all of the skills needed, what is the best avenue to get them? For example, I can code, but have terrible design skills
What to do first? What is your philosophy on getting launched?  Do you believe in the "Minimal Viable Product" espoused by the Lean Startup crowd,  or are there other ways to get started building a product?
What should I look for? What benchmarks can I use to measure my success?  How do I know if I should keep pressing on or throw in the towel / change ideas?
Paying the bills How to finance this new venture if I don't have $$ in the bank to start with?  Do it while working (chicken entrepreneurship)?  Do consulting to pay the bills?
