06- Interview with Tim Dewey: Questions & Issues from an Aspiring Entrepreneur
September 8th, 2007
In this episode of The Struggling Entrepreneur, we have an interview done via Skype(tm) with Tim Dewey, who is an aspiring Entrepreneur, but who has apprehensions with questions and issues, which are discussed.
Tim is currently podcasting as a hobby with his Sled Dog Podcast, while he also is a full-time employee in Corporate America and works as an internal trainer and educator.
I had met Tim in a learning environment, as he and I are both paying members and receive premium content and coaching from Dave Jackson in the School of Podcasting podcast series.
Tim’s questions and issues range from creating what he calls the “infrastructure” of an entrepreneurial business (or selecting the legal entity via an LLC or a Corporation), to the financing, timing, and locating of resources and mentors.
Discussed in detail are the need for a feaslibility plan and business plan. Referenced from my past experience is The Company Corporation– now, in this episode, I mistakingly referred to it as “the Corporation Company.” I apologize for this error, but I should have referred to it as “The Company Corporation” at www.corporate.com, and NOT as “The Corporation Company.” This is, by no means, the only firm in the business of assisting individuals to set up their own business entities–it just so happens that this is the company that I, myself, used in the past. And it served as the case-in-point for our discussion.
In addition, I wish to state that I am not a licensed attorney and I do not, in any way, give any legal advice, or pretend to do, or imply to do so. In this informal conversation, I relate to Tim Dewey my own personal experiences from the methods and resources I used in order to form my legal entity, which was a SubChapter S Corporation that was created in 1994. And the opinions given and recommendations from me to use a firm similiar to The Company Corporation to “outsource” the correct forming of the legal entity are strictly mine.
