What a hard week. We are working hard to get everything ready for the conference. Our brochure takes a long time to print in color. I print the text on the Laser Printer then load the paper into the inkjet for the color graphics, which we were smart enough to keep to a minimum.

We got our website up, under construction and duress. We got our clients draft up under a sub-domain so that she can look at it. Pretty slick. We have to include that in our operations manual.

I’ve been looking over our sales package. I hope it’s not too informal for the companies and government agencies we’re going to be talking to. I wanted it to be simple and filled with possibilities for employment.

The National Grants search service I subscribed to is turning out to be a total scam. The “research” package my counselor finally sent was just some printouts from the internet. I had that information already. My advice, stay away from the $800 subscription service. It’s a total rip off, so far.

The Matthew Lesko package was a way better investment. The books he offers had the same information, more setup and research advice and only cost us $60 and he has specials. Today “Free Money To Change Your Life” is on sale for $28. It’s a bargain and a good buy if you want to take your tax money out of the government’s pockets and put it into yours.

I have to print up 100 more brochures this weekend. Then meet with my partner to go over our patter for the conference. She’s feeling like we won’t be ready. I feel like we have no choice. I want something good to happen for us this month.

Our site is nearly up.

Our third client has dropped her deposit and we are putting up her site too. I loike this work a lot. I hope that we can keep getting these small businesses to see the advantage of the services we offer.

My cousin says I should send her our brochure so that she can pass it around to folks.

We still have to be paid from our biggest client. He is very excited about the work we are doing.

I'm still nervous about the JPL conference coming up. I'm still not sure we have the right package for the agencies we'll be dealing with. We will have to wait and see.
