From the owner: What is Noobpreneur, anyway?

It’s my term to describe myself as – Noobpreneur = Newbie Entrepreneur. I define a newbie entrepreneur as someone who is ALWAYS a newbie (first-timer) in his/her entrepreneurship journey. In other words, a noobpreneur is someone who try new things and launch new ventures with no regard to their background and knowledge.

A noobpreneur motto is learning by doing. Business plans are not developed before a noobpreneur start a business – to a noobpreneur, business plan is a diary – business plan is a blog (or vice versa)

Noobpreneur is a personal issue. I don’t like to be limited. I want to think with the creative side of my brain (a.k.a. the right brain). Although a noobpreneur doesn’t require lots of investments to start a venture, other type of resources are very important.

As an entrepreneur, I think that resource is king (or, second to king if we considered cash flow). I always look for resources to help me do my thing. I interest in all kinds of business. Lately – or too late :) – I enter web retailing. With limited budget (and knowledge) I learn while doing – there are trial and errors, but I love doing my thing.

Failing is an experience. Success is a burden. You have to fail to be successful. Failing is good! Those are what make or break a noobpreneur!

Back to topic. Noobpreneur – It’s for your and my interests – both you and I seek for new ventures and adventures. Both you and I seek for efficiency and want to be efficient. Both you and I seek for resources – help is out there. You just have to look for it (or pay somebody to look for it.) Some notes about Noobpreneur:

1. No, I don’t want to use ‘we’ in this blog, because this blog is a one man show.

2. No, you don’t have to buy anything from me (although you can if you want to!).

3. Yes, I partner with many service and product providers that in my opinion useful for both you and I.

4. This blog is not a collection of articles. People got bored reading the same articles over and over again.

5. You can ask me to write review on your business for FREE, and put it in my blog. Everybody should look for second opinion.

6. Anything you have in mind, just tell me. We might share ideas and knowledge. Perhaps we can built a better business together. Or, perhaps we can build our own business better by sharing info. Anything. Just ask.

There’s there. Please enjoy your visit and let us do our thing.

Cheers!
