dont do it.

My college paper is writing an article about punkster and i thought this was an interesting question they asked. what would you give as advice?

4.) What advice would you give to college girl's that are trying to start their own business?

dont do it. no just kidding, kind of. . . i would say dont go into anything hastily, if you think it will be profitable and easy quickly, it wont. no matter what. if you want to grow a business you will always be putting money into it. and if you dont want to grow it, it will be stagnant soon.

also, do something that you are passionate about and love, something beyond just "starting" something. because this will become your life, and everything you think about and stress about and talk about for the next X amount of years, so make sure its exciting to you. because it will put you through the ringer! but if you are excited about it you will put up with the chaos and create something beautiful.

another thing is, do your best to stay away from inventory based businesses. they are so difficult to conquer!

oh and be patient, companies need time to catch on, and iron out their kinks, and get buzz.
