Hi friends,
There are some steps to small business success,
-Develop your personal and company goals.
New business success requires a combination of knowing what you are doing and capitalizing on a good opportunity.
-Define a viable market segment for your product or service.
The next step in starting a new venture begins with listening to the marketplace. Define an unmet consumer need first, before you develop a product to satisfy that need. Regardless of how astute you may be in business, if the market isn't there to support you, then you cannot expect to go very far. However, the majority of entrepreneurs first come up with a product they think is "hot" before determining the existence of sufficient demand for the product.
-Develop your marketing plan.
The purpose of the marketing plan is to describe how you will attempt to create and maintain customers for a profit. It needs to state whom you are going to sell to, how you are going to penetrate the market, why you will be successful with your sales campaigns, and finally, how much you will sell annually over the next five years
-Write your initial version of the business plan.
Your business plan must reflect the unique environment you will be operating in as well as what you plan to be your competitive advantage. It is an outline of the direction in which you plan to take your company, an analysis of your business strengths and weaknesses, and a skeleton from which your formal business plan will later be developed.
-Determine your financing needs.
Once you have developed a rough business plan, you can begin to determine your financing needs, which will be incorporated into your formal business plan.
