Business Failures Anonymous

My I-friend Kevin Lovelady is going after a market that few would dare to pursue: people who’ve failed in business.

Kevin, who has been a strong and consistent supporter of my Business Ethics Pledge campaign, feels that people who experience business failure feel “abandoned” and need resources. So he’s set up a blog, a Facebook page, and various other channels to offer free support to those in this situation. It’s certainly a growing market, and I’m sure he has plans to monetize it down the road. Though, from personal experience in the frugality market, I’m not sure if he realizes what a challenge that might turn out to be. I could, however, easily see it turning into a Web 2.0 or Web 3.0 community for mutual support, and THAT could open up many channels to success if it gains traction.

Anyhow, if you or someone you know had the legs knocked out from underneath your company, you might have a look. And Kevin best of luck!

  9. Shel, I’ll pass this on to several people I know.

    I live in (actually outside) a small town in rural northern California, and we’ve had many small businesses shut their doors over the last year.
