Lots going on this week

Lot of stuff going on this week.

1. I've finally had the call with Patrick (head of Auto Delivery) and my Trilogy exit is finalized. The date is still in discussion but it is definitely before end of August. I am hoping it'd be sooner though. I can't wait to be doing this full time :-)

2. Initiated the process of raising finances. I've crossed 3 lakhs, 17 lakhs to go to hit the minimum I set for myself and 47 lakhs to go to reach a level where I can take it easy with respect to finances.

3. Set up the website : The Cressida Group. It is pretty basic right now, but that should do for now. It costs Rs 9k for three years.

4. Decided to advertise in Hindu for hiring marketing/sales executives. Costs a lot. 10k for 4 square inches :( But for Chennai I can't think of a better way of reaching out to prospective employees.

Lots more stuff remaining to do though. For every one item I am crossing out from my to do list and I am adding five to it.

The most important thing I am working on, right now, is making sure all the prospective investors are aware of the lunch and learn sessions on Saturday and Sunday at my home #510, A3, Ganga, National Games Village, Koramangala.

Whats the menu you say? Pizza and Coke :-)

One more thing, we might have a first hire (part time) tomorrow!!
