Learning Curves

Building a Business: A Complicated Recipe

This is the second website I’ve built. Thanks for visiting. The first website was built with a site-builder software, and as often happens, that software was put out to pasture. I had a company provide the next, but that was limiting as far as content, not nimble at all, as well as still taking too much of my time, so the payback for $100+ a month is disappointing.

So here we are, WordPress. It’s not that I built this from raw code, it’s WordPress, still a lot to learn. I tried a few different themes, and here we are. Like the rest of the business, a work in progress. When you start with a little money and a little knowledge, only a little, it’s a long climb up. You need to not stop, keep eyes and hands on all balls, and keep working it. Time and money.

Doing things without a lot of money means doing them with more time, and patience. So here we are. A Chef writing his first blog post about how constructing a website is like building a business, which itself has been like constructing an ever more complicated menu with many recipes that use grown and borrowed ingredients.

So enjoy, reach out with comments, suggestions, criticism, and I’ll keep revising it all, as time goes on!
