How do You Judge Your Business Climate?
I just read in an article that Florida ranks #6 in entrepreneurship climate. The story touts things like top personal income tax rates, capital gains rates and unemployment taxes. Let me be the first to say that all of those things were top of mind when starting my business here…NOT!
Granted, those are nice perks, but most entrepreneurs I know judge a good business climate by opportunity, facilities, location, resources and the ability to make money.
I’ll take it a step farther by saying that the main reason I stay in Florida is because of the year round riding it offers through some of the coolest back roads in the country. And great riding gives me the space to stop and think so I can make better business decisions.
So, for those intellectuals out there looking for answers in all the wrong places, sometimes a great business climate is simply the one that we both know and feels right.
