There's surely no excuse. I think the only thing needed is to be able to choose the right ideas for starting your business. Perhaps, a good idea is one that you're passionate about, compared with a hot and happening idea that doesn't quite excite you. Thank you for some great information! There’s surely no excuse.

I also agree with Jeny that startup capital is only one part of this equation. Succeeding in running your own small business takes passion, too.

I am sure all those first time entrepreneurs can learn something about this. I think in starting a business it is not just the big capital that is more important but what really matters most is the concept or idea that you have for a business. This a very informative article.

Second step - give a reason for contest goers to promote it by engaging your audience to vote. Just giving aware items isn't going to create enthusiasm or excitement. But, if people have to work to get the items (ask friends to vote, etc.), those people will be promoting the contest and you'll have that much more traffic to your site.

I've only got a few days left, and I haven't had much response (especially on Twitter).. Any ideas? I am really stuck on how to promote it, and nothing I've done has worked. Trying to scramble the last few days here to get some interest.

Its the only app I use everyday- combines several tools like invoicing, expense reports, time sheets and legal agreements into one free app. their Web app, www.fastdue.com is better, but thats to be expected. Still you can get a lot done with the Iphone ver and it syncs all your accounts and documents with the web version. Tech support is pretty good, but there are a few minor bugs, that presumably will get sorted out over time. Best feature is the online legal agreements and accounts section.
