I want to share an exciting program I'm helping Intuit with called the "Just Start" campaign--there's no cost and it's extremely relevant for aspiring business owners.
The campaign is focused on helping budding entrepreneurs get into business now. In addition to free software and other resources to help new businesses get started, there's a contest with $50K in startup funding and expert help. This program has gotten great reviews in USA Today, WSJ.com, Marketwatch, Fox Business, etc.
Check it out now at: http://iwilljuststart.com
If you know someone with a new business idea, or a recently established business, please pass along this message. Contest entries are due by December 15th and winners will be announced in January 2008.
Once you've checked out the site, I'd love to hear your reactions to the "Just Start" campaign idea--what you like and any suggested enhancements.
