Day 1 - The Beginning

Today is the first day of the rest of my life. How overly dramatic lol. I don't think I need to recap what got me to this point. What's important is the future and whatever happens from here on. Today is officially day 1. Jumping in with both feet and I'm ready to pour my heart and soul into this. I'd say wish me luck, but luck is for losers.

Today's goals are to register my two businesses with the province of Alberta and set up my online content. The primary business will be "88 Marketing Styles" focusing on helping businesses set up a basic online presence through social media. The secondary business will be "Sustain-A-Deals" - a new take on the highly popular daily deal industry. I figured if I started with 2 intellectual properties I can cross-promote as well as not worry about overhead like inventory and such. Being a one-man show for both may be time consuming, but I'll have complete control and the ability to switch gears as needed. If I can get the daily deal portion up and running within 30 days, an expansion into Winnipeg would not be out of the question. Otherwise sticking within Alberta will be my primary goal.

Once Kyle gets through his education, the plan is to bring him on as a 50/50 partner for the big picture goals (provided Barrett and Angie aren't already partnered in). Well time to start this bad boy. I'll update later with news on how today went.

Cheers!
