Entrepreneurial Room 101 - Week 3
by Startacus Admin
It’s the third week of our new feature on Startacus - “Entrepreneurial Room 101”
Last week, the job title “Entrepreneur”, Marketing and Super Hero Mentality were pitched by three self starters to go in Entrepreneurial room 101. Check out which one was the most popular proposal and thereby becomes our 
2nd entry into the Startacus HQ cellar!
Taking inspiration from George Orwell’s 1984 and the TV show with the same name, what we’re doing is asking room 101Startacus members and leading entrepreneurs alike to nominate something to banish into the Startacus Entrepreneurial Room 101 - and for eternity too!
Like the TV show - what we’d like you all to do is to nominate your pet hate, peeve, fear, phobia or nightmare to be put into our virtual Room 101 - as long as it has a starter, startup or entrepreneurial twist or angle.
Perhaps you hate modern technology, hate pitching, or simply can’t get your business plan right - whatever it is, you need to be able to argue your case and make your point.
So, over to our next three panelists and as for you, Mr or Mrs Reader, simply click on the Assign to Entrepreneurial Room 101 tab under each pitch and if you’re on Twitter we’ll see your choice straight away! Simples!
So over to the three pitches, and remember, choose your option wisely!
