1. Operations

You can have the best idea for a product or service, but if you don’t have the operations in place to deliver that product or service, your business will likely fail. What do I mean by “operations”? Operations is everything from how you provide your product or service to customers, your storefront (be it bricks-and-mortar or online), employee relations, customer service. We source business tips from high-power CEOs, small business owners, business coaches and mentors to provide both timeless and timely information for running a business.

2. Marketing

You can have a great product or service, and you can even have the operations in place to deliver that product to your customer. But if you don’t market your product or service, the business is going to fail. We talk with marketing experts about everything from how to successfully launch a new product or service, how to develop brand identity and a loyal following for your product or service, word-of-mouth and other “free” advertising, online marketing (including SEO and PPC strategies), how to get new customers, and how to keep existing customers coming back for more.

3. Legal

Legal issues are often overlooked until a situation arises where you as a business owner are forced to look at it. Unfortunately, A little planning can help reduce legal issues, and when they do occur, hopefully prevent these from taking over your business. We go direct to business lawyers and intellectual property law attorneys to help you identify potential pitfalls and how to address those before it becomes a problem – saving you time and money in the future – and perhaps saving your business from a costly legal dispute.
There’s a lot to starting and running a successful business. But if you focus on these 3 Essentials, your business will be well positioned in the marketplace and ready to take on the competition.
