investment revenue concepts
I consider each business investment based on concept and revenue.
trends different timeless
When looking at trends I always ask myself basic and timeless questions about business, and the one I seem to always come back to is, 'How is this different than anything else in the marketplace?'
pioneers settlers
Pioneers get slaughtered, and the settlers prosper.
mistake bumps may
Learn as many mistakes and what not to do while your business or product is small. Don’t be in such a hurry to grow your brand. Make sure that you and the market can sustain any bumps that may occur down the road.
truth-is sells
Truth is the easiest thing to sell.
rest-of-your-life willing ifs
Make sure you're doing something that you love, that you're willing to do for the rest of your life. If you're doing it for money, that's the only thing you won't make.
responsibility thinking entrepreneur
I think a great entrepreneur is learning every day. An entrepreneur is somebody that doesn't take no for an answer - they're going to figure something out. They also take responsibility. They don't blame anybody else. And they're dreamers in one sense but they're also realistic and they take affordable steps when they can.
mind copycats products
In my mind, there are too many copycat web products out there that are doing the same thing.
opportunity giving people
I've come to learn that my initial investment is more about the person versus the product that I am buying into. I've also learned that I really do enjoy giving worthy people an opportunity of a lifetime.
good-life people effort
Poor people put a low value on themselves and their efforts.
way
I've failed way more than I've succeeded.
needs looks exposure
I look to work with businesses that know what they are doing but need larger distribution or exposure.
inspirational children love-you
As an entrepreneur, you love your business like a child, and you're taught to be laser-focused on the business.
