I keep hearing people on TV saying recession is likely over. Is it really?
What's you take on that? Do you see opportunities?
As far as I can see in Gilbert, Chandler, Mesa, Tempe and Scottsdale AZ, I think it's far from over, but I do see opportunities out there.
Just saw the news about jobless rate increasing in 5 states on CNN.
Unemployment: 5 states see jobless rate climb above 12% - Sep. 18, 2009
In the past few months, I have attended networking with many local business owners, commercial property management companies and developers. 90% of them give me the impression that recession is far from over.
Many local businesses in my home town are closing. Empty commercial properties are everywhere. Many are not even finished. Some are up for auction. People simply don't buy things that they don't really need and start watching their own health. Many fast food restaurants, ice cream shops and cigar shops are closed.
I do see some businesses going stronger and become diversified.
1. I see landscaper distributing flyers on residential area.
2. I see auto repair shop offering car wash
3. I see more named brand franchise businesses offering low start up cost opportunities
4. I see more winery shop opening and offer space for local meetup
5. I see more businesses join local chamber of commerce
6. I see local printing shop expanding their space to take on T-Shirt and gift printing
7. I see more people eating at Chinese Dim Sun restaurants (not sure why)
8. I see more people learning secondary language
9. I see people starting export business (Ex. export used bra to third world countries - Very interesting)
10. I see local TV station, Radio station and newspaper companies offering
local oriented advertisement
11. I see more solar penal on the roof.
12. Some Nails spa and hair salon are busier
Obviously, there are many opportunities out there for us to grab. Do you see any recession proof business opportunity?
