Hi all,

like the title says what business is better to go for in 2019+, online or classic old school one with office and everything ?

For me personally I will go for online because where I live to open old school one it takes a lot of nerves and papers just to start(3+ months to set everything) because my country is one big shit. Only time I would go for classic one is if I already have success with online businesses and when I know that I've done good thing and achieve something so I can go and do some stuff with classic one where I wont lose my sleep over some stupid stuff(papers). I am not saying online business is walk in the park but its more comfortable for my situation for sure.

What the rest of you think ?

Both have their advantages. I would go where you find the need.

Why is it either or?

Some of the best opportunities come from bridging the gap between old and new.

An online coffee store with pop up shops around the city.

A lawncare service with no office, an online portal and 1099 crews.

Go for something that solves customer's problems. If technology solves the problems you are facing with papers, maybe it could also help others with the same problem. But remember to ask yourself questions, does the effiency outweight the cost of implementing technology, is the market big enough? Online or offline is just a channel, online presence nowadays is a must but also don't underestimate the power of offline, focus on the core of your business, problem and solution instead.

Online. Offline.

Save a life.

If you can save a life via online, how would you do it?

If you can save a life via offline, how would you do it?

Online and offline modalities are simply tools to deliver the goods and services to your customers.

Yea I get what you all are saying and its definitely on point. I just don't like paperwork :D
I always aim for bringing value, I mean what is the point for starting anything otherwise.
