The rule of achievement

Commit to the action necessary to realize it and persistently take that action. When you begin rationalizing why you can't, ask yourself, “When is a good reason not a good excuse?" We begin to rationalize when our fears become larger than our passion for our dream. What tasks have you already avoided this week or year so far? Do it now!

Top 3 Point Marketing Strategy For Start-ups

If you don't have existing customers (which you probably don't), you:

1. Need to rely heavily on your associates and networks to talk about you.

2. You will need to heavily rely on the market, or the media to talk about you.

3. You need to find ways to build trust because no one is ready to risk being the first one to 'jump' into your 'pool'.

Potential customers want to always know that someone else has dived in first to check the temperature of the water.

Most people that start a small business are driven by a great passion for their product or service. That passion is critical to success in business. However, you need more than that to turn out a successful business. Other important ingredients, such as business skills, business planning, best legal structure options, strategies (marketing, advertising, selling, pricing, social media etc), are essential for your success.
