1
00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:04,880
Speaker 1: What's up? This is the people Shark. Damon John here

2
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:09,640
Speaker 1: with a motivational moment for you. Courtesy of that Moment

3
00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:13,440
Speaker 1: with Damon John, a production of The Black Effect Podcast

4
00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:18,079
Speaker 1: Network and iHeartRadio. Here's a fact. According to the Small

5
00:00:18,160 --> 00:00:23,800
Speaker 1: Business Administration, fifty percent of all businesses actually start at home.

6
00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:25,960
Speaker 1: I know you're thinking big. You got to open up

7
00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:28,760
Speaker 1: a store or a kiosk or a service center. No,

8
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:31,880
Speaker 1: you don't. We all know the story of Steve Job

9
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:34,560
Speaker 1: starting Apple from his garage, but that's not a flop.

10
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:37,400
Speaker 1: I started out of my basement as well. You don't

11
00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:40,280
Speaker 1: need a formal office, especially in these days after the

12
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:43,280
Speaker 1: post pandemic. Think about it. You can hit the entire

13
00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:46,600
Speaker 1: world with the click of a mouse or your iPhone. Also,

14
00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:50,320
Speaker 1: we live in a world where anything and everything that

15
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:54,080
Speaker 1: you want can be done virtually. And if you use

16
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:58,440
Speaker 1: your office as your home, well maybe well definitely if

17
00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:00,560
Speaker 1: you start it off as an actual business, you can

18
00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:04,600
Speaker 1: write off that portion or space due to certain IRS's codes.

19
00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:08,200
Speaker 1: So take advantage of it at the moment. Start off small,

20
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:10,600
Speaker 1: start off slow. A lot of people won't even know

21
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:12,920
Speaker 1: you're in business, so you don't face the embarrassment of

22
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:16,199
Speaker 1: having to space and have leases and all those other things,

23
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:18,160
Speaker 1: and then maybe take the name down if it doesn't

24
00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:21,920
Speaker 1: work that you're starting off at all. Tune in every

25
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:25,280
Speaker 1: Monday and Tuesday for new episodes of That Moment with

26
