Theory and strategy versus experience and tactics: lessons from launching my dot.com
Joe talks about how useful the Kingston MBA was to him and his experiences with VCs, lessons on planning and practical implementation etc. Joe Tarragano’s career has included investment banking, publishing, IT consultancy and software marketing. He joined Kingston's part-time MBA course in 2000 and, after graduating with a distinction, founded his own company AskMyNetwork.com, a 'yellow pages' listing recommended service providers (such as plumbers and accountants) with feedback and ratings from users. The site grew to over 30,000 members in its first 3 months, was featured in the Sunday Times and the FT and secured venture capital backing. Joe is now launching an online offering for a consortium of national newspaper publishers.
