Well were are into the 2nd week of remodeling our Los Angeles Meeting & Event Center and just when I think I am doing well with not spending very much money - WHAM.... I get a $17K quote for all the IT, Networking, Computers & phone system.... CRY!
It will cover: getting a phone system in, computers, server, networking,etc. I think that it is a good price but daamnnnnn! That's a lot of money. Can't we get away with just one phone and a computer to start I wonder? Do I really need a server - right now? I am asking you - do I? I don't know. I will need a server - but do I need one the very first day we open? Maybe not. I need phones - but do I need a phone system? Yes - I probably do need this. But I really have to figure out how to cut these costs by half! I am not made of money for christs sake. Or rather - my investors will be grateful if I keep the costs low at the beginning! After all - I do want to be able to sleep at night. Well - I am not really sleeping now that I started this whole thing..
So the meeting space is moving along - and on schedule it seems - but I am just getting nervous about all of it! It is really nerve racking to open a big business like this. I mean - who the hell do I think I am? Superwoman? What I do know is that this is an incredible business plan and great money maker if done right.
So -What do you think about our logo? I am not sure I like it. I don't think i like the colors. I think back to the drawing board.....
