So for me it comes down to be super clear about having a niche and if you are well known people want to work with you.

0:07.4

The niche is so important because this is what I didn't do well in my last business. I nished way too late. So I would be super clear about my

0:17.4

niche right away if I started over. The If you have had the ability to start over, get rid of all the legacy stuff, all the equipment that you've purchased, all the staff that you may or may not have and the clients and you get to design a business that's poised for growth but also is in 100% alignment with who you are today that also can capitalize on the way that culture society shifting with technology and the way things are moving

1:05.2

to prime yourself for the maximum amount of success, what would you be doing?

1:10.5

Is it the same thing that you're doing today? Is it the same thing but with a variation maybe it's for a different client?

1:16.0

It would be a totally brand new business model and you get to keep all the knowledge and experience that you've attained thus far you don't have to start
