The key is failure, because you will at some point.

You will likely take on debt. Whether that debt is to credit card companies, banks, or investors, you will have debt. I took on a TON of CC debt while I was building my business because unexpected life expenses popped up. But as long as you make payments on time and can handle the temporary hit to your credit (and can suck-up the interest smack to the face) it isn’t terrible and it is really easy to come back from.

There is always a path forward. There are too many woe is me people on here. You don’t need to wither away to start a business.

What ya wanna know?

I primarily help gun shops with compliance and to scale their business into shooting ranges or multiple locations. I also help shooting ranges develop customer retention policies and membership programs

I dont know if we can plug here but we made as close to exact reproductions to the 4 main models used by the US during the war.

The FSSC (Navy/Marine), Ordnance 10617 (Officer), Ordnance 10609 (Enlisted) and The A-11 (Air Corps).

They’re either small or I have others that put some time into it as employees or contractors.

It’s pretty easy if you are willing to give up more of your profit in exchange for time

I have a few businesses

1. A foreign tourism business makes about 2k a month

2. I consult in the firearms industry and months are off and on, but I probably average 4k in the bad months and 18k in a good month

3. Estate liquidations currently losing probably 2k a month

4. Startup online gambling site. Currently in the beginning phases and I am only losing money since we haven’t taken anything in yet.

5. Making niche reproduction military items (started with WWII Watches)- currently averaging 2k-8k a month

There are other smaller things not worth bringing up yet, or they are losing money.
