This has been killing my brain cells over the last few weeks. I had the first company advantage providing project management and services in solar industry in India, but then the national solar mission got delayed at the center due to which projects were kept on hold, and then the budget. Now when everything is set to be on track, there are umpteen companies coming up providing similar services, and they have deep pockets !!
However most of these companies are foreign companies (they charge more n never handled local work) and so the manufacturers are showing interest in my company, however the clauses in solar mission ain't fully announced and there are certain guidelines etc coming up. So the wait continues.
2011 looks great, but how do I pay the rent till then? What do I eat? Finding alternate sources of income has become equally stupid. The only other option is to find alternate business ventures, but they are dependent on other people who are delaying their own work due to xyz reasons.
A good businessman makes money today, a good manager thinks of ways to make money tomorrow, and an entrepreneur has to do both.
Survival for existence officially begins!!!!

can totally empathize with the feeling!...
my business is taking time, and the only problem is 'money.. moolah!' :)
I have a love-hate relationship with it and with competitors who have deep pockets.
Just in a day things changed, now I need employees, atleast 2. I have potential orders but they require employees 1st hand AND money to pay them ofcourse :)
all the best ;)
