22. A COMMENT ON THE ECONOMY
When times are bad for the economy, it can be a
great time to start a business. In fact, 16 of the
30 companies that make up the Dow industrial
average were started during a recession or
depression. These include Procter & Gamble,
Disney, Alcoa, McDonald's, General Electric and
Johnson & Johnson
These economic times are an opportunity.
Companies that make it will end up with a larger
market share than when they started.
How does one take advantage of the opportunity?
By being known—how does one get known?
