<div class="IPBDescription">Business Owenership Project...</div> I'm in an Economics of Business Ownership class in high school. My homework due next Tuesday is to interview a business owner. Please Flayra I need you to answer these quick questions. You are an entropreneur for starting Unknown Worlds Entertainment.

1. What is the nature of your bussiness?

2. How long have you been involved in this type of business?

3. How did you decide to become an entrepreneur?

4. To you, what are the advantages to being an Entrepreneur?

5. To you, what are the disadvantages to being an Entrepreneur?

6. How many hours do you work each week?

7. What was the most memorable lesson you have learned in business?

8. If you were to offer one piece of advice to a prospective Entrepreneur, what would it be?

9. Why this business location?

10. How many people do you employ?

11. What qualities or skills do you look for in an employee?

12. Do you look forward going to work each day?

13. How do you promote your business? (TV, Newspaper, ect...)

14. In terms of promotion, what has worked for you in the past that has been the least expensive and most successful?

And please Flayra link me to a picture of you. Also if you have a business card can I get a picture of it? Maybe a picture of where the business is located will be good with my project (business front, business layout). THANKS! LOCK THIS TOPIC IF YOU WANT. I WILL PM FLAYRA AS WELL.

    I suspect Flayra won't see this, so... Let me see if I can help you out.

    I need to interview an owner of a business. If you own a business I guess it would be cool for you to reply. I'm only doing it on one business though. Need pictures of you, business front, layout, logo or business card too. Please help me out, Flayra.

    I don't know how frequently Flayra visits and checks the forums, I do not believe however that you will get an answer from him in time, if not at all.
    If I was you, I'd take what I can get, and that's Zunni (no offense there Zunni <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->) (he's the PR manager).

    Use forum PMs to contact Zunni, or even IRC I see him in there almost daily.

    If its any help I own a business. I run a small fish painting shop in central london. We import poorly fish, paint them like stones, and then send them back to the rivers. This way they can cunningly avoid fisherman because they look so much likes stones.

    As a side line we also make teapots from chocolate.

    Actually, what I meant was, since Flayra doesn't read general discussion a tonne, I'd helpdirect his eye to this thread.. I wouldn't be comfortable speaking for Flay about this topic since a lot of it is opinion..

    I did send him an email with a link to this, yesterday, He's just hopping onto his computer around now.. So hopefully once he cuts through all the "OMG FLAY I want to have your love Babies" (side note: cut that out Forlorn, it's starting to look a little desperate) hopefully he'll see my email and head here.

    I don't think Flayra will answer, but I'd be interested to read his answers if he did.
