So, there is no way I can be profitable before March or April. Not with this business, for sure. If you have a business idea that requires many months or years to get off the ground, and you don't have the resources to sustain yourself during that period, though, I'd argue the idea is out of your reach: http://swombat.com/2012/1/19/idea-reach-cofounder-myth http://swombat.com/2012/1/19/idea-reach-cofounder-myth
In your position, I would pick a different business idea.

- mswen 13y agoThat is what I am doing currently to support my start-up. One steady client that pays well and is willing to work with a somewhat flexible commitment from me at about 10 to 20 hour per week. And with careful spending that will pay bills for my family.
- soneca 13y agoI did some freelancing. A two-week job paid my November bills. It was a good emergency revenue, but it is a palliative solution. It is hard to find such jobs, it is unpredictable and also distracting. I still prefer the angel investment.
