What you don't need to build a profitable solo business


The Solopreneur Copilot

I recently came across a tweet and an a egregious misconception surfaced.

The original tweet was about new grads facing an impossible job market.

This is true.

The job market sucks right now.

I responded that you must start your own business, even if you still need a job (like me right now -- I still have a 9-5).

There were several people who responded "With what capital?!" -- ie needing money to start a business.

While yes, having some money to start a business is helpful, you don't need a large sum of money.

For a profitable internet service business, all you need is:

  1. a laptop
  2. an internet connection.
  3. a high-value skill (sales, marketing, development, etc.)
  4. the ability to communicate and propose a solution to someone's problem

That's it.

No mega capital, fundraising, fancy website...nada.

My website is built using Carrd.

The approach above is what enabled me to build a $10.2k MRR business in 3 months...verified by TrustMRR so you know I'm not full of it: https://trustmrr.com/startup/barron-tech-llc

I'm currently helping David build his personal business (see below) -- if you'd like me to help you do the same here's the easiest way to get started.

To your solopreneur success,
