I’ve been struggling in business very badly. I used to be able to get away with putting in minimal effort now it seems as though I don’t see any results unless I put in a huge amount of upfront work. I’m realizing the work just needs to be done and once the work is done I’ll be fine.

I’m literally a couple months away from my first success since this recession started. It’s been a nightmare trying to figure out how to navigate. I’m used to making quick profits, when the economy allowed it. These days you just have to let the work & capital compound!

What business issues are you guys dealing with as result of the recession?

Is anyone able to see smooth success? If so, how?

I am getting started and finding myself very frustrated a lot of time because everything is not going as you expect to go MOST of the time, things are slower, getting customers is harder, even convincing suppliers surprisingly.. but that’s what I love about it ! You get to learn so much and are never bored. Don’t give up ! Hang in there and you’ll be rewarded. My advice would be to join a community or friends that could support you even just emotionally during the process. It helps a lot ! 🩷

What recession?

Companies are more concerned about spending money. So in my case I just shifted the business more into B2C. I think what you need to be as an entrepreneur is creative and adjust to the market/situations you are facing.
