Thread deja vu freakout!

Shucks, Thanks poptop.

papadoc. Send in your CV.

I’ll do it.

True Jazz; I just couldn’t resist the South Park allusion.

Resolving the “???” component of any business plan is always the kicker. I hasten to add that it is clear that there are other elements that are likely to make the RiotACT successful not covered in the plan I posted.

Having previously worked with you, I am partially aware of your incredible talents.

Thats pretty much the business plan of any successful organisation poptop, with the website being alternated with whatever business model you’d care to substitute.

I would also substitute incredibly talented ad sales professional with the phrase ‘incredibly talented people’

RiotACT Business Plan

1 Start website
2 ??? Employ incredibly talented advertising sales professional
3 Profit

That would require an equity buy-in, something we’d consider for the right candidate who really brought the money in.

But if you’re selling lots of ads we won’t care.

Would the successful candidate be made an honorary “Overlord”? That could really be a clincher for me!

skid, we have considered that as an option but are going to see how this goes first. Yes will consider part time and flexible hours.

You can still be thrown into mod.

But if you’re selling lots of ads we won’t care.

Why don’t you hire Charly Leetham?

Wouldn’t it be easier to just say “You’ve all been recruited as advertising sales people, but it involves no salary, pay is commission-on-signed-contract-only, and your assistance will keep your favourite media outlet alive. Contact Tim (email above) if you want further details”?

Also, I have no experience in advertising sales, but do you accept people who would only be interested in part-time or casual hours, occasional work, or what?

“genuine excitment about Riotact”? I’d imagine those Irritable Policemen who used to post here would fit that description.

Depends on how much you can sell. could be anywhere between $50k to $150k
