It is extremely hard to compete in today's marketplace when it comes to opening a new business. Even if you come up with a great concept that has never been seen before, it can easily be copied or duplicated. There is a steady movement of spin-off companies chasing the coast tails of already successful businesses. Everyone is attracted to the dollar signs produced by emerging business plans that have shown success.
The ability to quickly/easily open a new business with the use of digital media has caused many great failures. Just because something is easy to start up, doesn't mean that it'll be a breeze to maintain or strengthen. A lot of planning needs to go into the start of a new endeavor. The more knowledge and preparation you have under your belt, the better off you will be and the more likely your business choices will pan out. Sadly, many entrepreneurs do not plan for the common obstacles of running your own business.
Technology is an ever-changing thing. Everyone has access to it and in order to be the best, you'll have to stay current. There are so many success stories out there involving making money with the use of digital media. Never forget that there are even more failures. Prepare yourself before jumping in head first. Make sure you're ready for the challenges ahead. I'd encourage anyone to chase their dreams.... Just make sure you'll be ready once you've reached your pinnacle.
