A Hard Day's Weekend

After finishing up a few things here at home, I'll be heading down to Philly tomorrow morning to visit Jess and find myself a job--although that whole job thing has been about as clear as a steamy mirror. I've been putting some serious consideration into turning the still fledgling PlasticMind Design into a hosting reseller as well. Lots of great possibility, but I'm a little scared of commitment. I'd need to have a fairly decent customer base to start off with... say 7 to 10 customers that would actually purchase hosting through PlasticMind Hosting. I can think of three right off the top of my head. I'd have to drum up the rest, though with school connections, that might not be as hard as I'm making it out to be. (Anyone website owners out there? What are you paying for hosting? Does $15 scare you away? Would you switch to PlasticMind Hosting if given the chance?)

The other one I think I'll hold my tongue on--still mulling it over in my head and talking it through with close friends. I'll be sure to post when the idea matures. Let's just say its a blend of technology and ministry in a way I've not seen it done before. Stay tuned.

P.S. (Any business owners feel free to leave me some tips of starting a small business; i.e. merchant accounts, dba's, etc.)
