Kay Syrah Syrah – What Will the Future Hold?

I remember hearing someone say after making a business presentation; “I’ll think about it. Let’s see what the future holds.” I thought to myself; “Don’t leave things to chance and see what the future holds, create your own future, now.” Doris Day sang about it – “Kay Syrah Syrah, whatever will be will be.”

I had a friend that missed becoming a founding investor in Starbucks in the early 80s and a friend that laughed when he was told smoke detectors would be required in all new construction in the late 70s. Both investments were small compared to the relative return on investment. These are rare once-in-a-lifetime propositions but at the same time, opportunities abound on a smaller scale every day.

A great Networking opportunity is much better than owning a $75,000 Lexus.  If you were offered a Lexus for $1000 plus  $300 per month for gas and insurance would you be interested?  Why not develop a team of motivated individuals that make the same commitment and in 18 to 24 months create six-figure profits?  And, you don’t have to turn in the keys when you’re done — you own it!

A non-refundable franchise fee with Quiznos costs around $250,000. You get the right to pay thousands of dollars of rent and overhead and pay accountants and legal fees and manage employees.  Best of all you get to make sandwiches for at least two years before earning any significant profits. Sound fun? Millions invest millions in franchises but there’s an easier way with a lot less risk.

It’s difficult sometimes communicating the benefits of profits versus wages to most people earning a wage. They believe they can’t afford to own a business or don’t have time.  What’s really holding you back? You might prefer a Mercedes to a Lexus, business models abound. That’s OK. Find the business vehicle that’s right for you, a product or service that you’re passionate about. Ask yourself: “What is the cost if I don’t make an investment in my future?

Create and plan your future and begin to cultivate your successful environment. Don’t leave things to chance. Kay Seyah Seyah will not produce results.
