It’s official: The Internet is the best business start up opportunity you can dream of in a recession. Time Magazine must have read the free report I mentioned in my last blog post. The magazine devotes 3 full pages in its latest edition to “Get Rich Slow: There’s never been a better time to bootstrap your own Web business.”
Here are the 5 tips from the article on “How to Start a Start-Up:”
- Find a co-founder
- Find a problem to work on
- Launch something simple quickly
- Iterate rapidly in response to users’ reactions
- Meanwhile, be cheap
I applaud them on tip 1: Find someone to partner up with who complements your skills. Going it alone will pretty much be a recipe for disaster.
