Message From the Editor

If you prefer to listen to Rick Bowers’ Message From the Editor rather than
reading it below, here’s the audio version.

I ain’t gonna lie.

Starting an organization or a business without a lot of personal wealth or
external funding isn’t easy. In the beginning, if you don’t have access to the
funds to pay others to do some, most, or all of the required tasks, you’ll
probably have to do those things yourself. And, you might have to do them for a
long time—at least until your organization or business starts succeeding
financially.



Over the years, I’ve started several businesses, some of which provided a living
for my family and some that didn’t. In fact, I’m currently in the process of
starting several more businesses, following a loss of some of my income around
the beginning of the pandemic.



Although I don’t have the types of tools and the teams I had at my other
magazine positions, today’s technology enables me to do many of the things that
need to be done on my own with free or inexpensive tools (software, apps,
equipment, etc.).



This is one of the greatest times in history to start an organization or
business with relatively low startup costs—if, of course, you can contribute the
needed sweat equity to get it off the ground.



In this publication, we’ll mainly be focusing on the kinds of organizations and
businesses that don’t require the exorbitant startup expenses of the past, such
as a large office, warehouse or storefront; high-cost utilities; expensive
software and apps; and large staffs.







Many great organizations and businesses can be started today without those
costs, making it one of the best times to take the leap.



And, if I’m right, many people want to jump. They are tired of making fortunes
for their employers. It just doesn’t seem fair. And they want more freedom and
flexibility. I know I do.



Unfortunately, even though many want to take the leap, they are also
understandably afraid to do so. What if the organization or business doesn’t
succeed? What if I go into debt? If I give up my steady job, how will I pay my
bills and maintain my current lifestyle? What if I fail and humiliate myself?



I understand. For sure. I felt that way when I left my former long-term position
with a national nonprofit organization. As a result, I’ve put this magazine
together to help inspire you and show you what I and others have learned that
may help you get started or grow. If you plan to start a business or
organization or have already done so, be sure to read Founders 411X for lots of
information, important tips, advice and encouragement.



Yes, you still may “fail,” but, on the other hand, you may fly higher than you
ever imagined.

This publication aims to help give you the wings.



– Rick Bowers, Editor
