Josh York, founder and CEO of <a href="http://www.gymguyzfranchise.com/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=gymguyz-founder-expounds-on-starting-a-business-in-forbes-1512" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">GYMGUYZ</a>, started his business with little capital. In a Forbes article discussing how entrepreneurs can start a business for $15,000, York reminded potential business owners to stay focused. &#8220;I started my mobile gym franchise GYMGUYZ seven years ago with little capital myself, but in the process, I learned that it is possible to pursue business ownership with around $15,000,&#8221; York said. &#8220;To go big places, you&#8217;ll always need more money. But you can start out with very little as long as you take care of some careful planning and are passionate about your company.&#8221; York urged business owners to have a plan and to put everything down on paper first. Having a plan allows for budget analysis and key questions. He also said that starting a business takes passion, self-confidence and fortitude. &#8220;You will experience setbacks and times of frustration, especially in the early stages of lifting your idea off the ground,&#8221; York continued. &#8220;During these times, I encourage you to remember why you decided to go into business ownership in the first place and know that entrepreneurship is a journey of highs and lows.&#8221; Read more <a href="http://www.forbes.com/sites/theyec/2015/04/17/starting-a-business-with-15k-you-can-do-it-but-you-need-to-stay-focused/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=gymguyz-founder-expounds-on-starting-a-business-in-forbes-1512" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">here</a>.
