The “American Dream” is also the dream of most people in the world, and even in America during the recession, most people would like to start a business of their own, says Justin Douglas of Shoestring Publishing. “Bloomberg has some recent statistics that show how popular the idea of owning a business is, as people are looking for a better job, trying to make more money to survive, or working jobs they don’t like, the idea of starting a business is appealing,” he says.

According to Mr. Douglas, there are a set of reasons that people want to start their own business, including independence and the fact that when you are the owner you cannot be fired or demoted. “This is a huge plus in the recession, and people are willing to work a little harder if necessary to be able to be the boss and have that kind of stability,” he says. “The great thing is that Shoestring Publishing has courses on startups that are actually easy to start and can make a lot more money than you would make at a regular job, so you don’t have to work hard if you have the training and choose the right startup business. We identify startups that can be started by average people, started quickly, with little or no money to start a business, and have very high income from day one. These opportunities exist and our course teachers have done these before. In some cases our courses are priced as low as $ 7 and you can come out owning your own business, so this is a rare chance to learn from experts who have walked the walk and have the real experience to tell you exactly how to get set up. This is not a gimmick, these are real business courses for $ 7.”

Mr. Douglas explains: “Some of the reasons our particular startup business courses are popular are:

You can be the boss and never lose the job. Work as much or as little as you want.
Full time or part time, set your own hours.
Many opportunities are very high paying
100% recession proof
Fast to start many businesses (some can be started in less than 2 Weeks)
Low start up costs (in some cases, less than $ 500)
No special education or experience is needed, anyone can do most of our startup opportunities! Most of our opportunities are extremely easy to make money with.
Work in any city
Grow at any pace
Easy to sell the business in the future
The market is wide open.”

How the U.S. Can Lead the World in Exports: Retooling Our Export Finance Strategy for the 21st Century

June 15, 2011, 12:00pm – 1:00pm

To view a video of this event, click here:

www.americanprogress.org//events/2011/06/export.html

The economic engine that created unprecedented levels of wealth and prosperity in the United States is being challenged as never before as as companies, both large and small, are confronting nontraditional trade finance policies in emerging economies around the world. How the United States addresses the emergence of state-driven capitalism will have profound consequences for American businesses and competitiveness for years to come.

Are foreign governments intervening in markets to promote their own firms and thus distorting competition? Do these new models of capitalism threaten our position as the world’s dominant economy? What should the U.S. government’s policies be? Export-Import Bank Chairman and President Fred Hochberg addressed these questions with a focus on what he sees in the world of export finance and previewed the agency’s annual competitiveness report being released later this month.
