To me, Texas is a damn great state to start. I would start with just the state.gov website depending on what business they’re looking for to make sure that whatever requirements they need to be met, are met. From a bigger picture standpoint or strategic standpoint Texas is great. There may be some businesses where it’s not good for it. I doubt there’s very many.
To me the big thing is what is my business, what do I want to provide, what do I want to look in to do, and then work backwards from that. Okay, if you’re product is X then where is X going to thrive? Where is it going to be the easiest to sell, store, maintain, or train people how to use? Obviously there’s a lot of intangibles there that are question marks that are going to drive those decisions.
I think a lot of times people try to work forward and in business I think it’ important to work backwards in a lot of instances, where we are essentially saying this is where I’m trying to get, now how do I get there?
I work backwards from that. I do the same thing with dog training. That’s one of the things why I believe so strongly in that principle and that theory is that I know what my finished product needs to look like as a finished trained dog, so now how am I going to get there and then starting from scratch.
Ultimately, just again like I said, being persistent. That’s without a doubt the number one attribute that you need to have if you’re going to be a business person, to be successful is you’ve got to get up everyday and kick life right in the balls. That’s it! Thank you!
