"Is this the right time to start a business?"

Reader,

A few days ago, I got a DM from a reader who’s been following me for years. 

“I’m a nurse and I’ve been thinking about starting a side business for years,” she said. “But now it all seems so foolish. Follow my passions....design a logo...who cares?”

I thanked her for being in the medical field. But I also told her that for people who need a logo — or help planning lessons for their children, or even advice on what to wear when working from home — their needs aren’t “foolish.”

Real people have real needs. Even now.

Nobody knows how long this will last. But it’s important to remember that for thousands of years people have paid for things to entertain us, to help us, to adorn us, and for pure pleasure. People need things, and a great many of them can pay.

They want advice on how to stay healthy right now. They need help with their social media. They have questions on their relationship. And so many more things.

Is it a good time to start a business right now?

You can come up with 50 reasons to say no.

But you only need one reason to say YES.
