Is your business able to grow in this economy?

There’s an old joke from the early 1900’s that goes:

Two shoe salesmen go to Africa looking to open new markets. After spending several days among rural villages, the first telegrams back, “There’s no hope. No one wears any shoes.” The second sends a different telegram, “There’s unlimited opportunity. Everyone here needs shoes!”

Looking for opportunities for your business? Ask yourself this first: Which salesman are you?
