Starting a Cable Company?
prec asks: "One of my goals for my post-university life is to start my own High Speed Internet provider. The plan is to find a decent sized residential area that does not currently have such a service available and start my business there. However, one major problem presents itself - How in the world could I start my own cable company? Would I actually have to lay my own cable lines and everything or do the big companies (such as Comcast) have services set up for people to start their own 'Comcast Franchise' type businesses? All feedback is appreciated."
As a part time job, I'd like to run some sort of huge media company. My problem is, how do I get millions of magazines/tv stations/newspapers? Do I have to write them all myself? Or are there 'some sort of huge media corporation' franchises?
