Comments on: The Ultimate Revenue Stream? http://www.jibberjobber.com/blog/2007/02/22/the-ultimate-revenue-stream/ advocacy for the job seeker Fri, 19 Mar 2010 13:45:35 -0600 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Kevin Delaney http://www.jibberjobber.com/blog/2007/02/22/the-ultimate-revenue-stream/comment-page-1/#comment-10428 Kevin Delaney Fri, 23 Feb 2007 04:05:19 +0000 http://www.jibberjobber.com/blog/archives/412#comment-10428 I should not have dropped a "rain on parade" post in an upbeat article on small business ownership. I was actually lamenting that there really was no avenue for the employee who had a $2 million dollar idea for improving elevators to realize her idea. Many of the most compelling challenges in our modern economy happen within the context of large corporation. The product review site is a fun hobby. Such projects really are just an adjunct to retail. A person who knows the engineering of an airframe for a jumbo jet inside and out will not do well writing a product review about airframes. It is not like someone has a mass affiliate site for airline parts. The engineer working on a compelling project is forced to live within the constructs of an engineering. I agree, wholeheartedly, however, that anyone in the restaurant business should be aspiring to owning their own restaurant some day. I suspect that restaurant tech is an area with room for many different businesses and independent contractors. How to put this a different way ... the person who is full of ideas on improving elevators does the world the best by staying in that industry. I lament that the elevator wizard doesn't have a clean path to ownership or otherwise receiving the apropriate rewards for the efforts.

One of the most successful that I can think of that followed exactly that patte4rn is Daniel Tonks with his <a href="http://www.remotecentral.com" rel="nofollow">Remote Central</a>, a site that is dedicated to building community and providing reviews and resources for programmable remote controls. In the mean time, you could check out my <a href="http://www.cecsearch.com/WordPress/restaurants-for-sale/" rel="nofollow">RSS feed of 50 restaurants for sale!</a> and learn about all the neat technology it takes to run a restaurant ;-) Hey Kevin… why not start a blog and do product reviews.

The problem is that many of the most interesting jobs involve working in a large group of people with expensive cutting edge technologies. Someone needs to invent a way where a lot of independent owners get to work with the cool stuff. Small business ownership is great.
