Why do people pretend that starting a business AUTOMATICALLY gets them business? In recent news Coronavirus Covid-19 is the new pandemic of the century. It is all over the news. People have lost their job or laid off. What are a lot of your social media friends saying?
A lot of your social media friends are saying empty phrases such as but not limited to “If you do not come out of this pandemic with a new hustle or a business then you wasted your free time.” -_- Some people will say anything to “put on airs” as the saying goes. If the economy is slowing down and people are losing their jobs or being laid off, why or how would a random business survive?
The Coronavirus Covid-19 pandemic is current events and a popular topic of today to correlate the message from a different angle. Just because you start a business DOES NOT mean you will get business, do business, survive in business, and/or thrive.
Here is an exercise to prove the message. Go to your local government and register a business, do nothing, and see if starting a business gets you business. Here is another step to follow through after doing nothing. Advertise and try to sell your product or services. See how challenging it is to get business.
This is not to deter you. This is to inform you the reality of making the decision of starting a business and attempting to put food on the table for you and your family. “The Scammer’s Tale: An Account of Scammers’ Business Tactics & How to avoid being scammed while Owning & Operating a Healthy Honest Business” is a good book to read.
