I’ve been thinking for some time about what to focus on JohnPope’s. I knew it has to be something related to Internet and computers, but I just couldn’t find the topic.

That was till two days ago, when I realized I should write about what I do and I’ll be doing at work in the near future. I haven’t told you yet, and also didn’t wrote on the About page (hopefully this will change soon), I work in Romania at one of the biggest online publishers, MediaPRO Interactiv (official website isn’t online yet, so you have to believe me we’re big).

Here I’m managing Romania’s first gadgets and lifestyle website, go4it.ro. So I’m always connected to computers, Internet, SEO, web development, management and a little bit of marketing (you can’t promote your website if you don’t know how). I’m also working on finishing some other websites, but that’s not my main occupation.

So what I propose to you, on months to come, to compose a guide to making a business plan for an online startup. Why do you need a business plan is simple: it lowers the chance of failing, without eliminating it. Without a business plan you have great chances to fail if you invest your own money or you won’t get a loan, if you haven’t got the finances to start up your business.

So, for the next post I’ll prepare some short steps, like a summary. Bear in mind that I’ve did in past business plans, but nothing too complex or correct as I want to write on JohnPope’s. That’s why I need your help. I think we all have to learn something from doing this. So don’t hesitate to contact me, write a comment and of course subscribe to my feeds, to see when I’ve got something new.
