What are the barriers to business these days?
I’m writing this in the lobby of my mechanic on a laptop I bought for not very much. There’s a video camera in my bag that I was able to snag for less than $100.
There’s free wifi all around me in the air. You can go to Starbucks, the library, Panera Bread or McDonald’s and instantly be on the biggest marketplace on Earth.
Business cards are free online.
Websites can be too.
Email addresses, online storage, video conferencing. All free online.
Social media can raise your businesses profile to hundreds or thousands in an audience that you can choose yourself.
What are the barriers to business these days?
Fear.
Comfort.
Ideas.
Guts.
Faith.
This journey started for me not very long ago. I invested in some equipment, tapped into my network and leaned on prayer.
If want to open a restaurant or mass produce an invention, there’s going to be demands for more capital, more of a strain financially, but technology has shattered so much that was once standing in the way for people who wanted to try to succeed on their own.
If you have an idea in your head that will help others, bring value and tap into the knowledge you want to share, think about it.
What’s holding you back?
What barriers are standing in your way?
And what are you doing to smash them?
