Re: UKNM: Nutravida

[Sean Kyne]

Well done to Tim for responding like this - as a member of a team that is

working very hard to develop and launch an "Internet start-up" it is at

times galling in the extreme to read the comments from those that assume to

know best. From what experience?


We belive in what we are doing, so do our investors. We have been given the

opportunity to make a successful business - if for whatever reason it is not

at least we will be in a better position for the next time through the

experience and be in a position to comment on others abilities, mistakes

etc.


Our CEO is also well versed in the vagaries of business startups in the "old

world" and together we have developed a sound proposition, a sound business

plan and above all done the number crunching and from this we have raised

our initial funding and the rest is looking good. The rest of the team also

have had experience in some form or other with start-up successes (and

failures) in a variety of sectors and skill bases, so we know what we are

doing.


If you think you have a business plan in you and the initiative to go for it

then good luck to you - in the meantime take time to consider those out

there who are doing it and need the support - we could be spending money

with you one day!


All the best
