Do not over-capitalize. If you can put out a product without a gadget do it. Don't get the gadget until you cannot possibly meet demand. Then save and pay cash.

Morris 1511663 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Greetings,<br /><br />I knew what I wanted and needed to do for my business. But, some information on how to succeed in my field I was not aware of at first. It would have been helpful and shortened the time to success had I known someone, or had information on hand to direct me. Sort of like a small business field manual for ultrasound imaging on humans. Now, after 5 years of crossing hurdles, I am poised to win. I know myself and I know the competition. <br /><br />To help others, I wrote an essay A Sonographers Road Map to Success. It can be seen on Amazon and it can be purchased for $1.99.<br /><br />The most important reason I have succeeded is making it through the adversity I experienced while on active duty. The civilian environment does not require a man to experience walking through Thunderstorms with Lightning and ankle deep water and mud. Nor does it require hand to hand combat training where a Marine might get a bloody nose.<br /><br />Kind Regards,<br /><br />Mark A. Morris BS, RDMS, RVT Response by Cpl Mark A.
