Why Not Now? There's Never an Ideal Time to Launch Your Business

Part of Innovate New Albany's TIGER Tales series: Many people dream of launching their own business, but postpone their plans while they wait for the IDEAL time. Our presenter Kevin Stoller believes would-be entrepreneurs are mistaken in this desire to wait for perfect conditions to launch – and he will provide his own perspectives on this topic through this very personal TIGER Tale. Kevin’s story is an example of entrepreneurial success achieved in spite of varied challenges that were known in advance of launch and serious family health issues impossible to foresee. The conditions to start a business are never perfect and life’s events are going to occur on their own timetables, regardless of what’s good for your business! No matter what gets thrown at committed, resilient entrepreneurs, they can and do find ways to survive and thrive. Kevin Stoller is Co-Founder and President of Kay-Twelve.com, a leading national distributor of educational furniture.
