Yeah, once you get things going in the right direction in a business, even a hamster can keep it on autopilot. The trick is getting things to a point of stability.

Personally, I think it is about the activity level and finding people that want to do the same thing. In my experiences, most player corps and thus their alliances, don't have the right level of activity (or at the right time) or the right type of activity for their members.

Some people just want to do PVP, which is fine, and some people just want to mine or just want to rat in null, whatever is cool. But, it doesn't really work when miners join a PVP corp and/or alliance, or when as a player, I play between 7p and 10p, but the alliance is only active between noon and 3p while I'm at work...

Lastly, also in my experiences, player corps and thus their alliances are really only set up to benefit one person or a small handful of people. These corps and/or alliances are absolutely no fun for those of us on the outside. These corps don't see to last long...

It sounds plausible enough tonight, but wait until tomorrow. Wait for the common sense of the morning.
