It sounds like you have everything you need! Have you ever run a business before, or do you help with Shark's?

I have run a business before (the romantic novelties side business I have is www.pantherrr.com, webstore is pantherrr.thoughtleap.com), and I've done laboratory management. I'm assuming you mean am I willing to deal with competitive, ruthless folks when you say "sharks" but if you mean something else... do clue me in ;-)

Didn't notice the " 's " last time... yes, I've helped a bit with my husband's biz too ;-)

Helpful support, as requested. :-)

And if you need to bounce any business ideas around off-journal, I'm fairly sure you know my email. I've done the MBA thing and the consulting thing, and have been involved in the complementary health area as an informed consumer for a few years, and I occasionally know a thing or three. :-)
