00:00:00hi I’m Evan Carmichael and welcome to

00:00:02entrepreneur mastery today I want to

00:00:05talk about how to choose the right

00:00:06business idea before getting started

00:00:09though I wanted to have a quick word

00:00:11about failure most entrepreneurs fail if

00:00:14you look at the stats something like

00:00:16eighty percent of new entrepreneurs fail

00:00:18within the first couple years of

00:00:19starting their business and that’s a

00:00:21huge number it doesn’t mean you’re bad

00:00:23entrepreneur chances are it’s a bad idea

00:00:26and so with this presentation today I

00:00:28want to walk you through the steps that

00:00:29you need to take to pick the winning

00:00:31business idea if you failed in the past

00:00:33don’t let that stop you some of the

00:00:36world’s most famous entrepreneurs failed

00:00:38when they first got started and it was

00:00:39until they hit on their winning business

00:00:41idea that they got to success so bear

00:00:44with me we’re gonna have some fun today

00:00:46here’s a classic example Milton Hershey

00:00:49so dedicated entrepreneur was working

00:00:5114-hour days he started off in the

00:00:54caramel business so he started in

00:00:56Philadelphia his hometown started his

00:00:58business would make caramels overnight

00:01:00and then sell them during the day the

00:01:03business did okay but then he couldn’t

00:01:05make his payments it ultimately failed

00:01:07so moved to Denver started the same

00:01:09business up again same story failed he

00:01:12moved to Chicago same story failed who

00:01:14the New Orleans same story and then he

00:01:16moved in New York and finally after

00:01:18giving it a try in New York one day a

00:01:21bunch of kids stole all his inventory he

00:01:24was out of money he failed again so here

00:01:26was a dedicated entrepreneur you know he

00:01:28was really working at it wasn’t for lack

00:01:30of effort tried in five different cities

00:01:32the same concept and it didn’t work and

00:01:36then he thought to himself you know

00:01:37maybe caramels that’s not a winning

00:01:39business idea maybe there’s something

00:01:41better that I should be going after and

00:01:42that’s when he discovered chocolate and

00:01:44the rest is history harvest in Hershey

00:01:47from her she’s chocolates so you know he

00:01:49would had the whole systems in place he

00:01:51just had the wrong business idea from

00:01:52the start and it was until he switched

00:01:54his course to pick a winning business

00:01:56idea that I was able to achieve the

00:01:58success that he had so let’s talk about

00:02:01these four steps to success
