Hi,
It's been a few weeks since I've posted on OPF and thought I'd share my latest venture with you guys.
I've started a limited company and decided to go into official UK product distribution. I won't plug the product yet, for fear for blatant advertising, but needless to say it's photographic equipment related.
Is it a cop out or some form of inadvertent vertical integration?
I'm not sure really, I feel passionate about the venture and have developed and populated an ecommerce site in record time, burning the candle at both ends and in the middle. I've also raided the piggy bank and invested a tidy sum in stock.
I'm confident it will do well in the UK, even considering the global economic downturn. A bit of PMA needed I think!
So I'd really like to get some thoughts from you guys. Pitfalls, positives, methods, opportunities etc.
Thanks in advance.
