Opportunistic Serendipity

Luck plays a big part in the growth of any business.

Luck often brings opportunities. A casual comment at a dinner party, a phone call from an old friend, a newspaper article, etc. The size of the opportunity varies, but the opportunities come.

The hard part is recognising that luck and then acting on it. This is where experience and openness come into play.

Are you ready to gamble yet again? Spend another $5000 to $10000 to capture a big client, or opportunity?

Do your networks include the kind of people who can help you take advantage of an opportunity?

Are you prepared to share the prize in order to win?

Success comes when luck and preparation meet. I call this opportunistic serendipity.
