The danger of taking short cuts

I notice that a lot of businesses now more then ever are taking short cuts to make profits and meet "wall street" projections.  The buyer usually suffers. It can be as simple as the leading auction site being even more lax (if thats possible) on pirates and crooked con artists/businesses in order to collect final value fees and boost their bottom line, to tactically allowing people with bad intentions to exploit buyers that are facing difficult times, knowing that desperate people rarely spend the time to practice due diligence before dealing with a business selling and/or services.) 

It is scary to buy or trust many sources online-some questions I often ask is who are these people? are they trustworthy? Are they being paid to give "their opinion" on their experience with the business? Paying people to write "positive" things about a product, person, service, even government is common practice worldwide (including here in the U.S.) 

I am willing to bet that when myabuy.com about to be revamped and launched people used to crooked businesses and an utter lack of transparency will experience an utter breath of fresh air and start to ask the question-why the f**k am I settling for less from other sites. Why would I settle for low standards practiced by major auction sites, social networking sites that will readily let crooks, con men, and people with bad intentions run wild.

Now is not the time to settle-when you see the new and revamped myabuy.com (coming very soon) you will not have to anymore.

Till then stay safe and don't settle for less.

Peace!

Today starts a new day for myabuy.com!-and me!

I am writing ready to get the best shopping social network utility myabuy.com off the ground. while I may not have prior paid work experience I am capable of running and making the best new web 2.0 site the gold standard of sites. I am determined to follow the simple matra that Great customer service and a worthwhile product/service (myabuy.com) is all it takes to suceed in any business.

That is what I will bring to the table. I know from history that such a simple mantra has been the hallmark of great companies that leave a lasting legacy. The Enrons, WorldComs, or Global Crossings, that decided that short term shenegains to boost stock prices (pump and dump tactics) will not survive nor leave a posting lasting legacy in history. Myabuy.com will leave the type of positive legacy that people 10., or 100 years from now will say-wow Myabuy broke new ground in the web field. They were a company that lasted long after the flash in the pan venture capital funded "next big things" are long gone and buried.

It will happen. I will show you.

Not your typical Start Up

Why am I here?

I came to Mountain View, CA to assist my web 2.0 start up Myabuy.com. 

 Many assume web start ups are funded by big venture capitalists who throw millions of dollars at companies that may or may not succeed.

This is not why I came though. While it would be nice to have millions of dollars thrown my way by Venture Capitalists, I have never sought Venture Capital help with this atypical web start up. 

The Millions of dollars the lucky, very few start ups receive come with a Catch-22. Your start up is not entirely yours anymore. In many cases you go from being the majority shareholder(s) to minority shareholders who may be seen as expendable. 

Many friends assume I came to Mountain View, California to seek Venture Capital funding but that is not the case. I came to an area that I had only been to once before to immerse myself in Silicon Valley culture, make connections and learn from entrepreneurs who had "been there and done that."

I want my start up to be a success, and unlike some of the more stubborn entrepreneurs out there, I know I still have a lot to learn. Money and Venture Capital funding comes and goes but accurate business insights last forever. 

 That is why myabuy.com and the company I founded Myabuy, LLC is an atypical start up.  I did come to Silicon Valley to make my fortune but more importantly I want myabuy.com to make it's mark on popular culture. To create a site that has a positive lasting legacy in the minds of Internet users worldwide.
