THE LUCKY STRIKE!  THE WILD WILD WEST of VENTURE CAPITAL. THAR'S GOLD IN THEM THAR HILLS! STALKING THE WILD VENTURE CAPITAL INVESTOR!

You dream of that BIG LUCKY STRIKE that hits when you were just out panning for a few nuggets of gold. You find the big VEIN OF SOLID METAL that will be recorded in the history books. You can see all the juicy details in your mind: your very own business, millions rolling in. Yeah, dreaming that is good. That's how it starts. You do have that initiation process going on, don't you? Tell me that some 'big money generating process has probably already started to percolate in your brain. You dreamt up that invention, that new service that people would need. You may have been super right and don't even know it! Your business ideas are remarkably SOLID. Well guess what. You can organize them now. List them. Do the write up on each. Maybe more fully detailed, printed out, these ideas would actually sell.  And here's how to get to the BIG GRUBSTAKE!

These are things concepts, designs that you've had on the burner for a while and if you make appointments to tell them to TYCOONS maybe using a POWER HOUR, you can probably launch them. You have all the tools, right? The groovy stationery, the fax, the business cards. Start now doing the paperwork, or if no paper, then order stationery; get that fax cleaned, or find/ borrow/ download freebie  fax software for your PC..

Maybe early next week would be lookin' very good for  a final launch date when you call X Big executive at X Corporation But you have to get cracking on this. If you want that overnight escalation into the big money, having your own multi acre home with orchard, garden, your pool, tennis court, your fishing boat moored in the Marina, travel to Paris, Bali, India, well then, getting funded by the BIG GUYS is required. Few just create a cottage industry like BILL GATES and win. Well, BILL had to go to the big guys. He cold called IBM!  Walked in on their offices in a distant city and they signed him up. They liked his browser! And soon as he cribbed Apple's more visual browser, WINDOWS, they liked it even more though Steve Jobs sure didn't! (Rent the fab tv movie "THE PIRATES OF SILICONE VALLEY). Gates says to the screaming, complaining sTEVE JOBS: "Get real, would ya? You and I are both like guys who had this rich neighbor - Xerox - who left the door open all the time. And you go sneakin' in to steal a TV set. Only when you get there, you realize that I got there first. I got the loot, Steve! And you're yellin'? "That's not fair. I wanted to try to steal it first." You're too late." BEST TV MOVIE IN HISTORY!

So get busy working on those important 'finishing details' for your idea, presentation, concept or plan. Don't let these business opportunities furnished by the BIG GUYS be outside your purview. True, being that we're poor slobs, we don't understand the world of the BILLIONAIRE. We never even knew that realm existed any more than a gold nugget on the ground realizes that six feet up there's an eye looking assiduously for him. BILLIONAIRES or their CORPORATIONS are looking for SOLID original IDEAS worth their VENTURE CAPITAL. Once that product/ service is in the marketplace, you have a lifetime income if you structure the contract right. These venture capitalists and their products may not be something you see selling like hotcakes in YOUR set, even though you bump into the final product at the Walmart. How did that product land there/ Some guy with an idea. So value your process generating IDEAS: this is what the big guys keep an eye peeled for.  Keep track of your INVENTIONS. I know I DO! NEW SERVICES. NEW FRANCHISE ideas. LOCATING them is easier than you think in this Age of Google. My pal Howdy did a taco shop, then a few shops, around town, cafes called "SALSA".  He got up to about ten shops making a fortune for him but then he was approached by an immense nat'l chain that does nothing but quick yummy food franchises. There was a cash pay off but Learn from Howdy, here's a don't do. Don't let them give you the second shoe dropping which is a STIFFOLA. They tell you: 'we will be giving you X MASSIVE SALARY forever to run it,' but they just fire your ass a month later and it was in the fine print all the time. They can! Moola on the barrelhead is the deal. A solid amount, No airy fairy promises of a 'future salary' thank you very much. Now I had a second pal, JOE. He turned printing contracts he did, ties and knowledge of good job printers into a great HIGH concept product!  HE created  movie-tie in licensing first, and then the end product, a MOVIE poster corp! Movie posters were just getting recognized as a hot collectible.  Joe quickly cornered the marketplace. A wall street firm jumped to take him public. They signed a deal, stock was issued, the first few insiders got to buy the top tier stock. Now, the thing is, by this time Joe had signed away all rights to his corp and though the Huge Multi Million dollar Payment was about to come in from this big, reputable Wall Street Firm you've all heard of,  the scenario did a 180 and changed when Wall Street found one mistake one accounting error in his ledgers, his books were crooked they alleged and look at the fine print, the contract says adios sucker! They dumped him. All his pals who'd invested in the firm, lost their money. The WSF walked away with all rights to the printing poster concept, the licensing deals that he'd slowly accrued with big studios. Their new corporation reorganized by THEM now does biz everywhere. Joe doesn't even think he can sue as yes, there was a minor mistake in the books.  TWO very SAD STORIES. Well that ain't gonna stop you. Hell, the pioneers of 1849 crossed the great prairies and deserts of America to go west even though there were grave markers every foot of the way. Just turn your head and remember, do it right, do it tight, have your lawyer check the fine print!
