Through observing business people who have been successful, and how they achieved their success, I have concluded that there are a number of factors that must be present for business success to occur. As I like to keep things simple, these success factors can be condensed into a formula. It is:Success = Startup Business Person + Product/Service + MarketLet us look at this formula in a little more detail. Firstly, what is success? The definition of success depends on what you want to get out of the venture, that is, what your goals are. Business success usually means creating a viable entity (business) that returns its investment and earns a profit.Appropriate and realistic goals include to be challenged, to achieve, and to build something good. For example, your definition of success could be to earn $100,000 a

Powerful Marketing has become elusive to many companies seeking strong sales results and overall growth. The sad truth is that Marketing comes across as a rather frustrating process. After all, how do you guarantee the outcome of a campaign when it is unclear what will work and what will not? As someone once said, 90% of Advertising doesn’t work—the question is, which 90%!If we could hone in on that 10% that does work, we would do more of it, right?The good news is that there is a way, and it is through a scientific approach to our Marketing efforts. But before we can expect to see any results, our mindset must be a focused one, and that requires being on the same page with others on our team, and having solid sources of information (and inspiration!) accessible to allow us to forge ahead in a ne
