The growth in potential customers and opportunities are enormous

Posted on Thursday, April 08, 2010
From the dawning of mankind it took several million years for the worlds population to reach one billion people in 1800. In the next 130 years that figure doubled. Thirty years later there was another billion. The next billion (4 billion total) only took another fourteen years. By 1987 the worlds population hit 5 billion people. It is now around 7 billion and forecast to reach 8 billion by 2021. This is why recessions are simply adjustments along the way, not the end of time as often projected from the negative press surrounding them. The facts are your potential pool of customers is always expanding as well as gross domestic product, taxes and revenue in general. So what may seem like a dire debt situation today, will look like small change in years to come. Ignore the negative press and focus on the opportunities that abound us in the future.
