Although my main interest is wicca, I do make my own handcrafted cards. I had a small business and it was doing really well until card manufactures decided to add 3d motifs and call them handfinished cards. They out priced my cards because they could obviously make them in bulk and sell them so much cheaper. So I had to fold my business.
I worked really hard and used so much of my own money because there was no available finance from any source to back me, so I wasn't earning enough to keep it going.
Welcome aboard Frank. My vision is for this group to become a true resource for entrepreneurs to help connect them to the experts and tools that can make their business a success. This includes helping locate sources of funding for start-up or growth capital, financial advisors, business attorneys, strategic marketing, etc. You have a strong financial background, so perhaps you could lend your thoughts (or comment on the the discussion I just started about why VCs Just say No.
