Starting a Business
You can start a business and you can succeed. But there are many obstacles to success that you must overcome.
“Every time you solve a problem, there is one less competitor behind you that didn’t.” Wise saying

The Biggest Handicap to Starting a Business
Money.
Having too much money available is the biggest handicap to starting a new business.
What?!

Money Alone Does Not Solve Problems
Having a big pool of money reduces your drive to solve problems and learn to operate on a tight budget.
You need enough money but not too much.
Weird, but true.

Test Test Test Your Idea
As a potential owner, you must get a real appraisal of your idea.
You obviously believe in your idea.
Your friends and family will not tell you what they really think.
You need a realistic assessment.
Save Money. Tune Your Idea.

Passion Smashion
I’m sick of seeing books and articles about following your passion.
Your passion can drag you straight to the poor house.
I’ve seen awful ideas borne of passion. I’ve seen people go broke on passion.

Use Your Brain
Think! Your brain will get you farther than your passion.
Your passion can help sustain you, sure.
But ALWAYS lead with your brain!

Do the Thinking
Do the thinking necessary to get your business going.
If the idea does not work in your brain, passion will not save it. People buy what they want and need, not what you are passionate about!
THINK!

Pivot
If your idea won’t work on paper, work on a new idea.
Pivot.
Don’t be afraid to change.
You can refine you idea or start something else. Plan B

Get Your Message Right
GET YOUR MESSAGE RIGHT.
Before you spend money on a beautiful website and dump thousands into advertising…

Your Message
You have to entice someone within 30 seconds to want to know more about your business.
This takes a lot of work. (And help)
It can’t blur into oblivion.

Your Message
There are businesses that continue to struggle in spite of spending thousands on advertising, websites, gimmicks and promotions. Why?
They have nothing new to offer.

Get Advice
When you are considering an investment of a lot of money, get expert advice.
You’d have a mechanic check out a used $15,000 car, why not get input on a $1 million business? I makes good sense.
