Your Dream Business Already Exists

YOUTUBE📚THE READING LIFE📚 PATREON

📚 Hey, good morning! Time to win.

There’s a great (but not perfect) book called The Answer, by multimillionaire serial entrepreneur John Assaraf that I recommend quite highly.

In the following quote, he talks about how your dream business already exists:

Assuming you've identified a real need and a real opportunity - something that real, actual people are likely to want and buy - then everything you need to start and grow a wildly profitable business already exists.

It's now your job to gather those resources together, assemble them into something you can bring to the market, and strike out in search of paying customers; people with valid credit cards who can and want to pay you.

The common misconception that people have is that they need to create desire for their products or services. But that's false.

There are already people out there hiring video editors, paying for personal trainers, going out to restaurants, buying books, etc. They exist already, and it's your job to find them and make them aware of your existence.

All of the traditional excuses people used to make about not being "allowed" to start their own business have been demolished by the internet and the rise of social media, and there's more money floating around in the world than there ever has been before.

You seriously just have to strike out and take some of it.

Someone out there has your money.

They have a pressing need or desire that you can find out about, that your business can fill; you can provide what they desperately want and are willing to exchange money for. Build it, yes, but don't wait for them to come.

Get out there and take what's yours.

It seems like I got all the wrong things done today! I didn’t get a YouTube video up, I didn’t publish any Medium articles, I didn’t finish the book breakdown…what DID I do?! Well, a lot!

I finished the referral program, updated the Members’ area of my paid newsletter, did a whole bunch of backend things I needed to do…it was a pretty productive day! But online business being what it is, I STILL don’t feel as though I did enough.

One cool offer I got today though was an invitation to give a guest masterclass to my friend Taylin Simmonds’ mastermind group! I’ll be giving a talk about “infinite horizon networking” and my profitable DM follow-up strategies, etc.

But hey, it’s 5:27AM here right now and I’m going to bed!

All the best,

Matt Karamazov
