Hello!
Lately I have been feeling like I am lagging behind on everything. Every business idea I have had has been a failure. I am jumping from one idea to another. Just last month I had this sick idea. Since bars and clubs are pretty much closed cause of covid I thought why not create a service where I could create the coctails and drinks they serve in bars and have them sent directly to the customers. You and your so want to have a date night in the house but are bored of drinking wine? Just have the quality and tasty drinks delivered right to your doorstep. Nope, the law forbids hand to hand selling with alchohol. Only chance that would work if you would sell the ingredients and have them delivered to your mailbox and have the customer create the drink themselves. Having accepted my loss I moved on.
Now I thought about creating a marketing agency that focuses on small companies creating their brand. I live in a country where the population is about 1.3m. I started researching my competition...there are 82 of them but there are 133 000 active businesses in my country. If there were 20 marketing agencies it would seem reasonable to jump in, but 80? I have some experience with social media advertisements but nothing too crazy.
I just feel like everytime I try to take a step forward I am being pushed 2 steps back. Everything just seems so far out of reach. Has anyone experienced the same thing? If yes how did you keep going forward?
