Help Me Start My Business!
Donation protected
Many of you know that I have been looking for work-- and many of you have asked how you can help. Asking for help is never easy for me. Fortunately, I have come up with a great idea for a new business. Unfortunately, being unemployed, with few financial resources, it is difficult for me to obtain the necessary capital and/or loans needed to get my business started.
I am humbly asking for YOUR help! I hesitated to do this, asking is so difficult, but I really think I can make this fly. I am most grateful for whatever assistance you could offer.
I am calling the business, "A Friend to Go." It is a "lifestyle management" company (more on that below). I have incorporated as an LLC and have already obtained my business license and a home occupation permit. Insurance is a large startup expense for this type of business, and will run me close to $6k/yr.
A Friend to Go is a professional lifestyle management service. We provide stellar service to busy professionals, seniors, students, and parents. Our services are retained by people who are looking for someone whom they can trust to accomplish things that they themselves don't have time to do, or to free up time so that they can do the things they WANT to do! I have a long list of services we can offer, everything from doing your laundry, recovery support, picking up your prescriptions and grocery & personal shopping to meal prep-- miscellaneous errands, tours, small party planning, office prep and meeting logistics. The possibilities are endless. I plan to narrow the list down, once I am established, and see where the demand lies. I would like to purchase a small, fuel efficient vehicle, with cargo capacity, for business use. Also, that "we," above, is currently the royal We. lol We is just Me, for now, but it would be great if I got so much business that I had to hire help, wouldn't it?
In the meantime, I have developed a Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/afriendtogoathens), Twitter (@aFriendtoGo), and a website (http://www.afriendtogo.com/home.html). The website is in the very beginning stages and definitely a work in progress. It needs to be better, but I need some "expert" help to improve it. I also need to get some advertising out there and collateral materials printed.
So, there you have it! Please, let me know what you think. I figure my funding will come from people who know me, but just in case, you can find my resume, etc. here: www.KathrynLookofsky.com
Most importantly, THANK YOU!! I sincerely appreciate your support. Sometimes, it really does take a village. I am so grateful for each of you.
