W04

     Throughout the week we used our quantify and compare techniques to choose a website and a company host. Another thing that we worked on this week, and for the past couple weeks, was choosing a business to run. So lots of decision making, which isn't my strong-suit.

    I was grateful for the discussion boards which talked about choosing a site builder and a hosting website because I needed to hear thoughts from other classmates about how they thought of and compared this decision making. A lot that went into my decisions had to do with a lot of research to find what was important or key things that was needed to run your business. I do feel like there's a lot that I still don't know, but I'm starting from somewhere.

    When it came to choosing a business of our own, we started by exploring 20 different business ideas. Through comparing them to different key word searches where we gathered data from Google Ads, we chose the top five businesses to dissect even deeper. There was an excel layout which was handed to us that guided us to think about the demand, competitions, suppliers, the start-up cost, time, profits, and so forth. Although it seemed like a daunting and scary task to dive into, it was actually super beneficial and interesting to see. Thankfully, my favorite business idea was the one that looked the best in comparison to all other odds with the other top business ideas.
