Have you ever noticed that some of the biggest tech companies in the world got their start in a garage? That’s right, Google, Microsoft, Apple, and Amazon all began in humble garages, on a shoestring budget (let’s forget the wealthy families behind them for a moment).
It’s left us wondering… what is it about garages or spare rooms… these unassuming spaces that sparks creativity?
Maybe it’s the lack of distractions – no fancy office furniture or corporate politics to deal with. Or perhaps it’s the freedom to be messy and experimental without worrying about ruining expensive equipment. Whatever the reason, there’s something about the ‘spare space’ that seems to inspire innovation and creativity.
So, for all wannabe business owners who are starting out on a tight budget, take heart – you’re in good company. Maybe one day we’ll look back on your garage or spare room with the same reverence as we do with the places where the big firms got their start!
But, wherever your business begins, and whatever point its at now, let’s not forget that it takes more than just a garage to build a successful business. It takes hard work, dedication, and a willingness to take risks.
