I am heading soon to an event for female entrepreneurs in N.C. and S.C. That made me think this morning about whether Charlotte is a good place for start-up business owners.
Are you an entrepreneur? Did you move to Charlotte to chase your dream? How's it working out? Please post your comments here and if you are willing to have a follow-up conversation, please email me your name and daytime phone number. Thanks.

I am an entrepreneur and I have been having a hard time breaking in the market here.
As a consultant, I saw the move to Charlotte as an opportunity to bring a unique service to the area but I haven't had any bites. I am beginning to get frustrated and my marketing budget is running dry.
I need help!

Anon, I am not from Ohio. And what hppened to civic pride? Mecklenburgers should be proud and flattered that others see the joy of NC.
Again, more 'negative nelly' talk from Charlotteans...The sky is not falling, your schools are fine and crime is not rampant.
www.gobacktoohio.com is not directed at you, jennifer. Get over yourself.
Amy I think you would do good with a chain of SKYLINE CHILIS ; I think once People would try the Cinncinatti food they woulf like the great food; Let me say I a starting HARRAHS CASINO on the CATAWBA reservation so stick around things could get better here;
Screw the HERETICS here Im going with a HARRAHS ; Harrahs has over a million members and dont want to force People to have a great time.
Lets face it AMY the WACHOVIA is going stale and the Observer is going out the door ; what the hell is left here ? Another Bank surrounded by a seedy environment? If WACHO goes Charlotte is in Big trouble . Thousands will begging on the streets with signs and pencil cups. Mayor McCrory will buy a new suit and proclaim himself "LORD OF THE FLIES " Many People will be wearing ORANGE suits with numbers on the back . This town has slept and failed.
Get off your ass CHARLOTTE and start doing it or else. I look for ROD SERLING to come from out a barn door any minute . DOO DOOD ODOOD DOOODF DOOD ODOODOODODO dummmm dididd dum thats the twilight zone song. Bush is coming here next week with a little monkey and an organ grinder for the finish off.
Anon, not to belabor the point, but prior to your post, only mine was present. So I can naturally assume that it was directed tome.
That is the thing about 'communication'...it is deliberate or accidental...so while you state that the post was not directed me to...the transmission of your post was accidental communication on your part...not me 'feeling myself'.
And my name is Jenifer...one n. Perform the decency to clown me and spell my name properly.
So now I must ask then, what was your point of gobacktoohio.com? Was it to everyone who might read or was it directed to Amy specifically...either way...my point is still valid.
Jenifer the annonymous who keeps writing go back to ohio on every email is a pain in the neck spammer in my opinion. It's his knee jerk response to everything that's written in this blog. I don't know what his/her problem is, but obviously he has too much time on his/her hands. This person probably thinks what he does is cute but it actually just speaks to the person's own ignorance and an inability to write anything intelligent. Best thing is to just ignore this person.

R: You respond each time that I post www.gobacktoohio.com so when you write that I have too much time on my hands isn't that just the pot calling the kettle black?
jennifer: I really don't care how you spell your name but what's with "young, gifted and black"? Sounds like you have some self esteem issues.
Jenifer:
I apoologize for www.gobacktoohio.com. Please keep reading my blog.
Best,
Amy
