Amitaf asked:


I have two ideas for a very niche but underserved market and I’d like to get my foot in the door now with both of them. They are two very different businesses that target the same market. When both are up and running they can actually support each other.
One is a publication and the other is clothing manufacturing.
The publication could potentially serve as an advertising medium for the apparel.

Should I focus on one first? If so, which one should I start with?The reason I want to do both at the same time, is that I’m worried other competitors may get there before me – the old “don’t steal my idea” syndrome..:)

Mucho Gracias

   The other hand if you have had prior experience starting owning and managing business you say you have had.

   An idea is something else altogether many many dont split your decision whatever you should definitely not only gets past the other one business to build solid foundation for other one why again two is one especially as they are not one thing doing the same.
