Net-Working Update
I have recently completed my first and second e-mail. These interviews were completed at Cenntriss Corporation in Long Island. This company is a computer programming company that creates a program that does scheduling for schools. I met with the Founder and Co-Founder of the company, and they gave some insight into what were some of the most vital points in starting up the company. They told me that they had previously worked in the software industry and saved up money to begin putting the wheels in motion to creating the company. They said they first before even started thinking about hiring or search for more funding, they first needed a product, which they were able to start creating themselves. Creating a product, a target and where they were planning to start selling it were the first things that came to their mind. They told me if you have a product, and you feel strongly about it then your road to success is just beginning. They told me more than anything that you have to first be ready to go through hell with the company. It’s going to get tough before it gets easy. The hardest thing they told me was how much how close they were to going bankrupt with their life savings and loans and how much debt and broke they were about to be. Basically what I got out of this interview is that it’s a long tough road, but you must be willing to stay in it until your last dollar and penny, because your definitely not making it off of your first whatever amount it is.
