Finding your startup spot

  Being a young entrepreneur we're always looking to find that spot to start doing our own thing. Today more then ever we're flocking to cities all over the country. Why do you think cities like Oklahoma City are considered promising? That wasn't the case 40 years ago.  With the growing need for start up Business and technology on the rise it's almost possible to do just about anything from anywhere nowadays..So where do we go? Here's some sports I like.

Wynwood Miami

When you think about Miami you think Condos, Clubs, and some not so legit Businesses.
However times are changing. As more and more people move to the Cities, they want affordability, opportunity and life around them. For someone into Marketing or a Tech Business, Miami is great for B2B Marketing and Sales. Not to mention the economy is better in Miami. Living in Florida my whole life, I can tell you and as you probably know it's a very laid back, not good at getting things done for Business type of place (sorry my fellow Floridians but you know it's true so many time) However Miami is different. People have a motor that moves, they're willing to hustle their way up the ranks rather then complain. Where I'm from I could barely find a job at 16..In Miami I see a kid selling water bottles or some little nick nack all over the place. While this may have little to do with Marketing, it shows that the people here want to succeed. For a young Marketer it's a great way to Network with others in the field. It's a great way to find the right Tech guy your Business so desperately needs. Affordable, fun, cultural, great for Business, what's not to love?

 Las Vegas, Nevada

Vegas? Yes. As the Economy slowly recovers the Gambling industry continues to face tough times. Facing a pretty dire situation, Las Vegas has turned to other other forms of Business. Due to many of the hidden real estate deals in the City, Tech Companies have really grown in this area, along with Marketing companies. Being in Tech or Marketing you want a city where you can make some noise...Well this one sure helps. Art Museums, more and more crazy rides/stunt scenes, Shark Scuba Diving, etc. Are also growing stronger in the tourism industry. Las Vegas as we all know as been the Sin Capital of the USA. But because you can no longer base an economy on gambling, strip clubs. etc. they're starting to become a more diverse, but still fun filled environment.

Oklahoma City 

Oklahoma City is skyrocketing in popularity. It's one of the friendliest states to small start ups. It has one of, if not THE best housing recoveries,  a low unemployment rate and finally low housing costs. This means you probably have customers along with Business clients. I don't know if you've noticed, but it's getting harder and harder to find good paying customers in non elite areas. A good economic climate around you is huge. With low housing costs and a good economy, you'll have a strong local backing behind you here. While it may not be the flash of South Beach or The Strip, OKC is a cool up and coming City. Not only that, but a lot of people don't want the crazy Miami hustle and bustle lifestyle. For that person, a City like Oklahoma City is a great choice

Times are changing, and it's exciting to see

 

Turn on any Financial News lately? If you have, surely you've heard about the many new start ups that seem to pop up in the news every day. I'll be the first to admit I've seen some horrible, stupid ideas that make me wonder what the hell the investors were thinking. But we've also seen some cool, innovative things like Messaging Apps, new forms of Social Media, etc. I think the world of Business is undergoing the craziest part of change alongside Technology. It has investors in stocks confused, old time Businessmen thinking it's all a fluke, etc. But no, Tech Business is here to stay.

 Ever since we've heard about Drones it seems there's another new tech piece coming out (google glass, Iwatch, fit band, etc) Google Nest is a Thermostat that pretty much keeps track of your ever tendency and adjusts the climate in your home accordingly. OK, now to me that's too much..But again that's just me. Getting back to my original point Technology is coming at us with new things at a rapid pace and these new things are changing not only the way we live but the way we do Business.

  Technology has put Business online, made doing Business incredibly easy. Imagine being a Marketing company losing your automation software and Big Data Sources. It would be a set back in time and effectiveness. You can get a Loan easier online, even do funding. The future of Business is bright and Tech is a big reason why.

Business is all about finding the new trend that's right for you. If you haven't mixed Technology, Software, etc. with your Business I suggest you get with it or get lost. So embrace these exciting new Tech Trends and take your Business to the next level
