I remember growing up, I used to follow my mom to the market every market day.
Preparation was important because you are going to do A LOT of negotiation. Whether you are a seller or a buyer, the negotiation never ends. It could continue for hours. When I followed her to buy products, I always ended up feeling bad for the sellers when the negotiations entered certain stages.
But the honest truth is, the sellers are aware of this and they come equally prepared with their own tactics.
Nothing beats the type of negotiation that happens in an open market.
My mother is arguably one of the best traders I have ever known, even in her primitive ways. I learned so much from her.
One shortfall I have seen in many aspiring business owners is a lack of understanding around the things that build a sustainable business. Business structure, modeling, scaling, inflation, macro-economics, policy changes, compound interest, capital preservation, interest rates, leverage, and partnerships.
As a software engineer, I learned that no code can survive on its own. Every piece of code relies on another to function.
With the rise of AI, many young people are losing their jobs or are afraid of losing them, and they are confused about what comes next. Many have turned to starting their own business, or have tried, but do not know how.
AI is not going to make things easier. In fact, it is going to get messier. Imagine trying to fix an AI powered air con.
Demand for human-to-human jobs is going to skyrocket as AI takes care of most automated services. People are going to long for real humans to solve their problems.
I would rather have a real person come fix my DSTV when I want to watch a program than spend hours online with a robot convincing me that I can fix it myself.
This is why MooyVx was born. I understand the struggle of trying to start your own business and not knowing how. You probably tried and gave up after a few months. Or you are still going but not sure how to get your next client, or deal with tax, contracts, negotiations, and most importantly, getting customers to recognize what you do. That is your identity.
Imagine trying to reason with your AI air conditioner.
AiCool: Unfortunately, you are not going to be able to stay warm tonight due to some faulty issues.
You: What do you mean I cannot stay warm tonight?
AiCool: I will schedule an appointment with your favorite air repair specialist for tomorrow morning.
You: No, I do not want to warm up tomorrow. I need to warm up tonight. Fix yourself.
AiCool: You are right. I can suggest other ways to stay warm...
This might sound funny, but it is not a far-fetched reality. You must position yourself to take advantage of this new world where real services are valued above all else.
Let MooyVx help you get there. We will help you create your brand identity from nothing, give you exposure, and recommend the tools you need, like software, to keep your business running and scale up to meet demand.
Let's make your vision visible.
