I get to meet a lot of people in my daily work. Most of them are entrepreneurs, already running their business, and then there are ‘the others’, who are inspired by this great entrepreneurial buzz that is to be found everywhere on the globe.
‘Starting a business’ is a phrase I’m noticing on more and more people’s to-do list, and it’s definitely something to be celebrated. It shows we are all dreamers and that each and every single one us is dreaming about a better future.
Though, some just never wake up from the dreaming part. For many, starting that dream business has become a task for ‘later’, so let’s dig into a couple of reasons why you should start now.
The entrepreneurial wave
The fact that more people are starting a business means that the number of like-minded dreamers is increasing – all of them living out their dream and trying to build a great business, while having fun and learning an insane amount.
Governments have realised this, which is why they are increasing the incentive schemes and improving their transparency. In addition, they are also focusing on lowering the barriers that small businesses are facing.
The currency has changed
In the earlier days, companies had to have revenue before being eligible to meet investors, and even then it was hard to make contact, as the circle of investors was a members-only club.
Times have changed, which ultimately means that it’s easier to get capital from investors. More successful entrepreneurs are starting to invest, helping you with not only money but also valuable insight and knowledge.
Skills up for grabs
You are no better than the people on your team. That’s why it’s good news that talent from the corporate world – having knowledge and experience – is turning towards small businesses, being that they are the true innovators.
If you know that there are plenty of dreamers out there like you, that getting capital to live out your dream has never been easier and that the talent mass is looking towards the dreamers, what are you waiting for?
Time to wake up and start living it.
