Originally posted by vwdan View PostI see mentions of a "Plan B" quite often around the forum and I just wondered what kind of things people were doing? I'm not asking for your secrets or anything, I'm just curious really. Are people just turning second hand cars, selling other services on the side, starting consultancies?
I spent 18 months on the first one and built up quite an audience in a very niche market. However, when I started to sell (about 12 months in) I found the suppliers for that industry (music related) very hit and miss. I just couldn't find any reliable wholesaler and after much heartbreak I had to ditch the project.
Anyway, I'm positive about my current project & I've learned a hell of a lot from my first experience. I really, really want this to work because I don't think I can face much longer of this dreadful contracting game which just gets more & more boring by the day.Comment

Get the website out there and start building traffic. Everything else can wait.
Good luck.Comment

1. Yes it does & I'm utilising that for this project. My first website was so much more content based (with an online store attached) so had to use different software.
2. I just closed down the website but have kept the domain name to stop anybody else profiting from all my hard workComment
