One great example is m-commerce or mobile commerce. Here you are combining both software and telecommunications and then making it mobile. Our company <a>FanGo Software Systems</a> has been is this space for more than 5 years, but we now see growth between 300-500% per year. Look for m-commerce to become a major industry in the near future.

I reviewed your site after reading your post and the first thing that I notice about your website was the look and feel. The look and feel of site did not appear to be professional looking. Secondly, there is anything that brings the user back to site (stickiness effect). So, I think if you had the site redesigned and added something that keeps the users involved and coming back to site you should have better success monetizing the site.

I know firsthand about the need for healthcare and how expensive it can be. I had bad eating habits. I ate what I wanted, when I wanted, and as much as I wanted. As a result, I was diagnosed with Colon Cancer on March 31, 2005, where eighteen inches of my colon was removed. So, after months of radiation, chemotherapy, surgery, and then more chemotherapy, I became one of the fortunate ones, a cancer survivor. Thanks to the successful treatment I received from doctors at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, I believed I had been given another chance to change my lifestyle for the better. I am convinced that if I had cleansed my colon, I could have saved over $350,000 in medical bills and this would not have been my story. My goal now is to help people avoid the pain, discomfort, and costs of cancer treatment. This is what inspired me to design and market the Lifedriven Cleanse the only all natural, antioxidant-enriched colonic and body detox treatment that is specially formulated by a Colon Cancer Survivor. The idea behind cleansing your colon is to remove toxins, boost your digestive immune system, help you lose weight, and increase your energy. Because of the rising costs of health care, 47 million people in this wealthy country have little or no healthcare coverage at all. Colon cancer kills 17% more African Americans each year, than whites, despite its preventable nature. I challenge every American, especially African Americans, in 2010 to cleanse their colon. By eliminating toxins from the body you help reduce the risk of preventable disease and thereby, help lower the costs of healthcare. By sharing this story, I hope to help decrease the diagnosis of preventable diseases in African Americans Chris Angelo Word I am a 50-year-old African American male who would like for you to consider my story as a part of a regular feature in your magazine to inspire your readers.

In this business, you would collect concrete from demolished houses and buildings and crush it into crush & run stone that can be used for foundations, driveways, and to raise land. My husband is a heavy equipment operator who has operated all the equipment in this business for over eighteen (18) years. Our problem now is finding financing.

We work with boys ages 13-25 and soon girls the same ages. We do youth enrichment, empowerment, activities, mental health and substance abuse wrap around case management services. We have been in business for about a year and a half but out of our own pockets. I write grants, bids, RPQ's and RPF's and am exstaticly exhausted from writing. What other ideas do you have to help us locate funding for this arena. We have pretty much covered most rocks and stones that we know of such as contacting our law makers in Arkansas, wrote a email/letter to the President and First Lady, contacted banks, charitable committees and etc. Please direct us further to winning more grants, contracts, and funding.

I am a strong believer that I should'nt attend college for four years just to work for someone else. I am a broadcast journalism major and I believe that I have a great idea that will promote young people in the inner city that has great talent but not enough resources to market themselves. My problem is that I dont know anything about writing a business plan or where I will get the capital to start this company. All I am asking for at this time is some advise on where I should start.

I am looking for investors in a welding school that would specialize in tig welding of aluminum and stainless steel. This is primary in the production of solar systems and wind power production. Not only would i train them but also assist in employment. This is a trade that has many opportunities for women and young people of all races.
