Do You Like Being A Small Biz Owner? Or Would You Prefer To Be A Business Giant?What Would Jeffrey Say? Top Jeff Bezos Quotes! - The Profit Goddess Logo

I love being a small business owner! Wouldn't trade my gig for anything! Although maybe I could be persuaded under the right circumstances... but you know what I mean. I like managing my own company. I've liked seeing my business grow, but am still pretty happy fitting into the "small" category of business. Bigger isn't always better. Sometimes it's just bigger. The size my business is now gives me certain controls and flexibility — professionally and personally — that I'd miss if it were a publicly-held behemoth. That said, I'm absolutely impressed with people who start something small and make it huge. Someone I admire who did just that is Jeff Bezos, Amazon founder and gazillionaire business genius. Jeff Bezos is not only one of the richest people in the world (actually, the richest one in 2020), but also one of the world's long-term visionaries. The 2020 pandemic has become a strength and adaptivity test for all businesses, and Amazon nailed it, growing its profit and power! Global, online, scalable. Amazon is so big that it's easy to forget that there's an actual founder, as in one person, who got it all started. Isn't that kinda crazy? I think so! This week I'm giving a shout-out to Amazon's head honcho ('cuz the poor guy needs a shout-out from the likes of me) with some Jeff Bezos quotes that I like. Hope you do too!

Jeff Bezos Quotes That Even We Can Relate To!

It's hard not to be impressed by successful ventures that got their start in a garage or other humble digs: Google, Microsoft, Apple, The Who, Martha Stewart, Spanx. Even The Party Goddess!. Of course I still occupy my humble-beginnings Alhambra location, but that's by choice now — all part of my strategy to not spend money on trappings I don't need.

But seriously, imagine starting your business in a literal garage and ending up with a company the size of Amazon, recognized as a global leader in business and technology! Pretty mind boggling, yet that's what Jeff Bezos did. It makes for a great story too! Unfortunately, we may have to wait a while for the Amazon movie to hit Amazon Prime or the What Would Jeffrey Say? reality show. So in the meantime, I bring you words of wisdom — Jeff Bezos quotes — that even us small business owners can learn from. Some ideas and principles are universal, regardless of the size of your business or even what type of business you have.
