Business inspiration from unusual sources
Back in 1997 my business was going through a difficult period. I was feeling low because it seemed everyone else had a bigger, better business model. Dot-com’s were popping up with plans to reinvent whole industries, and we were doing old-style software in a niche market without much Internet pixie dust.
Forbes magazine arrived with the story of Wendell Murphy, billionaire pig farmer, and suddenly I felt better. I was encouraged just knowing that you could start from mud (literally) and build a huge business in something as low tech as pig farming.
The Unusual Business Ideas That Work blog is full of that kind of business inspiration. (Thanks bBlog!)
