Top .1% Franchise Consultant; Inc 5000 Founder; Best-Selling Author of 'Non-Food Franchising’; Forbes contributor on Franchising
Happy Independence Day!! Studies have shown that 2/3 of all Americans have considered starting their own business. A little over 90% have chosen not to go through with it. There are many reasons for many people not to jump in and I respect that. However, there are quite a few folks sitting on the sidelines that have very strong reasons as to why they should be in the game, building a career of independence.

Starting a business is never an easy decision because there are so many factors that need to be considered.
Love where you're coming from here, Jon. This is the reality we're facing and it's perfectly normal if you think about it.
Totally understand where the 90% is coming from. So many things to consider. Such a huge decision to make.
Always great insights! Entrepreneurship is such a huge undertaking. You have to get all the bases covered before you decide to get into it.
Always thought provoking insights! Couldn't agree more.
Interesting points, Jon! Happy 4th of July!
