Capital - business grant from the WDA 9 wlesh development people, simple enough)

Capital - bank loan for businesses as i know my bank manager well and he plays poker and oferred to help me set this up.

Basic capital ill have probably is $50k - $70k, with $10k in neteller for intersite transfers.

marketing - speaking to google/yahoo. FOrums such as this, 2+2, a few im on. TP mentioned to me an ad in card player and the UKs poker mags, this is a genious idea and one im looking in to now. Also advertising on tables in sattys in stars, they have said this is fine and i can get somone i know to do this for me easily. I can also get an AD on poker night live on TV in the UK/europe for cheap, and their forum is huge, but badly made, so i am trying to get something going there too

Spending big money on advertising is a nice idea, but there are obvious (?) problems with it:

1. You're going to attract more buyers than sellers, which doesn't solve your problem - it just forced you to have EVEN MORE money to cover the transactions.
2. The cost of advertising is going to negate your profit margin and then some. I suspect you'll be running in the red for a long, long time.
3. No way (IMO) would you recoop your investment advertising with google/yahoo/etc.

Did Stars really tell you hey would allow you to spam? Cause they told me the exact opposite - In fact, my "business account" is disabled for both chat and play.

From your recent posts, I think you're setting yourself up to fail even bigger than I thought you were originally. You planning on paying back that bank loan???

Again, prove me wrong and GL. But I can tell you still haven't written an even semi-comprehensive business plan. You know, one with numbers in it, for starters.

OMG part 2,

Is it as "genious" as the cash game/tourney hybrid?

[eejit101]

hey the cashgame thing will be fine!

And TP, i spoke to stars, they wouldnt let me have a business account! but they said the spam thing was fine as long as i only did it once or something per table
