                                                          MODEL
And the winner was....
No shortage of ideas
Solve a genuine problem




          (Don’t confuse a hobby for a business)
How’re you going to make money?
Who’s it for? Who’re you competing with?
How’re you different (and better)?
Give a taste of the future.




 Get me excited. Make it tangible.
Show me you can sell, sell, sell.




Who’s going door-to-door?
You can’t do it on your own: team & balance.
Twitter / Facebook / SEO is not a marketing
strategy.
Look (and feel) fantastic: words, branding,
bizplan, presentation, aesthetics.
The future’s bright....
