Keep in mind .....

There is a clear intersection of economics ( finances/money ) , education ( lifelong learning/non credentialized ) , & entrepreneurship ( ownership ) as you develop your idea. The Gig Economy favors founders who have this kind of vision & it also rewards those who creatively disrupt tired/staid industries.

    Great point. Entrepreneurship is definitely a balance of all the above. I also think that it  is also about standing out in your community. Some industries in order to perform the business one must obtain credentials. 

     

    However, entrepreneurship levels the playing field in a sense that even after obtaining one's credentials.... we still must hunt (find our tribe and build clientele) :)

    Thank YOU so thoughtfully for your very + feedback below. Indeed - there are some limited industries where I would certainly be on the look-out for credentials alongside upbeat reviews online, etc ( western medicine comes to mind, inc. ancillary services like dentistry! ) ; same goes for engineering ( any genre - inc. civil )

    Great conversation @SBSL-Founder-SJ and @195937. What steps do you think are most important for differentiating *your* businesses in a competitive field?
