Uberinquisitive and others,
Thanks for sharing your experience and thoughtful insight.
I now have a TIME SENSITIVE dilemna since I last posted. 3 hours from now, I'll be talking to a business contact of my brother who wants to meet with me for a deal.
This is totally unexpected and I have very little time to gather my thoughts...
Last time the same person wanted to talk to me to strike a similar deal by making me work as a salesman doing cold calls with 100% commission system for a total start-up.
Now she's targeting the herbal market with Asian medicine and wants me to help with marketing because she heard I was looking to get my license as a dietitian.
She's offering room/board + tuition fee in exchange with help in marketing.
Note: I have no experience in both. We're going to talk for more information and I'm sure she's expecting to hear what I have to say...
My mind is in shambles as I'm totally ambushed.. The deal sounds nice but this sounds like a huge commitment for all that she's offering.
I'm definitely going to just listen more and ask her to give me time to think it over.
I know its such short notice but if anybody knows how to react to this, I'd be really grateful.
