You don’t need a visionary master plan, a lot of money,

or a great team to start a business. All you really need is generosity. When Derek Sivers started CD Baby,

he had no plans to do a major business. He was a successful independent musician who wanted to sell his CDs online.

He started helping his friends sell CDs in 1998. In 2000 he hired his first employee. Eight years later, he sold CD Baby for $22 million.

Sivers didn’t need a business plan and neither did you. You don’t have to think big. In fact, I recommend that you don’t. Whatever you want,

it will inspire you to start with what you have,

take care of your customers more than yourself, and run your business

as if you didn’t need money. “A True Manifesto, Clearly Guided Signs,

and Fun Rides You’ll Revisit Again”
