Do Not Do It just For The Money
The photobooth business is much like any other
business. If you do it for the love, there is a good chance the money will
follow.
There used to be an old joke, which is probably
more true now than ever, that being a DJ is a real hard way to make an easy
living. Well, this pretty much applies to the photobooth business as well.
When you love what you do it does not feel like
work. Many successful entrepreneurs failed several times before achieving
success but they did not give up because they loved what they did. Colonel
Sanders was rejected 1009 times in his attempt to sell his chicken recipe. All
he could do was sell the chicken himself and the rest is history. Henry Ford
and Walt Disney both went bankrupt in their initial business ventures, but they
learned and tried again till they finally succeeded.
If at first you don't succeed try-try again only
works if you truly love what you do. Overnight successes are very few and far
between. I am not sure as to the accuracy but I remember reading that the
average entrepreneurial millionaire has been either completely broke or nearly
broke 3.2 times. The point is that unless you commit to the long haul and love
what you do, you may quit before you ultimately succeed.
It is a fact that the harder you work the luckier
you get. Your big break will most likely never come unless you work at it.
Getting 50 no's to every yes in business is just par for the course. The Harry
Potter manuscript was rejected 12 times before a publisher accepted it.
Multiple record labels rejected the Beatles. Monopoly was rejected as being too
complicated by many game manufacturers before Parker Brothers finally took it
on.
If you love what you do, you will persevere. You
will try harder. You will not give up. That is why you need to love what you
do.
