If you had to start your biz over again, would you do anything different?

I would have gotten into dialers back when they were hot and I would have read more about the biz before diving in and wasting money.

In the mid 80's we got offered $500,000 for 2 of the first 900 lines. Back then only 100 were alloted by AT&T. But just a few months later AT&T ended the fixed initial allocation and anyone could get a number.

Should have taken the money on that offer.

Back in the 80's we had 550 chat lines in my city that were something like 10 cents a minute. I wanted to get involved in it but didn't know how.

That's a BIG regret of mine, the owners made some serious money on those lines.

I would've gotten into the biz earlier. In the earlier days of the internet when things weren't so saturated.
