In my previous two blog posts I have updated people on my venture and attached links that correlate to my post. Again my venture has evolved. I think I am going to do a do a 180 turn and head back into the boating segment. I agreed with feedback that introducing this as a vocational program might have negative feedback.
My current elevator pitch:
Built to order high power luxury speedboats built to order. Create partnerships with South Florida teen programs. Designate times to teach skills and allow teens to participate in builds. Exposure to industry practice and specialist expertise will help misguided teens to find career paths as well as teach communication and team work skills.
Feedback is always appreciated.
I have begun research on luxury product social ventures but have had difficulty as luxury products require large amounts of capital.
In other thoughts, I am a consistent reader of business books and magazines. The theme of selecting and building the right team for your venture is always recurring in conversation about entrepreneurship. After doing a little reading about the topic I did a little hunting on the web. Bellow are a few interesting links about building the right team.
