Ok, so i know in some way or another we are all business minded people, because party plan is like our own businesses, but I am trying (more like haven't started anything but the thinking stage) to start my own business whether it be run party plan or something different.

I need people who have started their own party plans to help me out a bit here if possible please please please. How do I go about contacting suppliers for goods etc and building a little business for myself. Basically how does it all work out? What are the steps I need to take or follow?

I am very interested and determined in doing this for myself and would love feedback from anyone who thinks they may be able to help me out in any way. If it is easier for you to talk to me please pm and I will give you my phone number.

Thanks MJ.

Not party plan related... but I am in the process of dealing with a few chinese suppliers and Australian customs for importing certain products.

  

My advice is to stock up on asprin prior to starting.

(This is an interesting topic. I too would like to hear members advice and/or stories)

Forget the asprin, go straight to the valium !!!!!!!!!

  Wow what a topic!

I will pm you to chat on the phone as it is too much to talk about here.

However, besides the asprin and valium, research is the key.  Firstly write down some ideas on paper and brainstorm with a mentor if possible.  Check out what is already around and where a possible gap may be for something new.

I got asked today from a friend to help her with her company, design a party plan style business plan for her product line.  Very exciting, and I am honoured that she would ask me.  It certainly got me thinking.

will talk to you soon
