I’m not fully happy with my previous post. I did the research and found some of what I was looking for and thought I’d do a post on that and then do a follow-up when I’d read the book. But I need to put more time into my posts. The last one was far too long for the information it contained. I think it holds the standard of something I would turn in at school, but there only one person is going to read it and that person is paid to read it. Now I want lots of people to read it and they have no incentive at all to do so.
Anyways, I think I failed at really getting to the heart of the matter and touching what really matters to me.
The question still remains of why one would start a business in Japan as opposed to the U.S. The U.S. has better opportunities, that is why I constantly compare the situation to them. So why not just set up a business there to start with?
I want to get to know more about what Japan can offer an entrepreneur that other countries can’t. It’s a different market, they have different values and different problems. It might be easier to make an impact in Japan? I don’t really know. There might be advantages of lower competitiveness since entrepreneurship isn’t as widespread.
What I do know is that Japan has a huge mobile market. So maybe the best location to set up shop is based on your idea?
I will try to refine my writing and thinking in the continued chase of answering these questions.
