The Curious Starter
Congrats on completing the Do you have what it takes to start your own business? quiz! According to your results, you're sitting pretty. When it comes to entrepreneurship, you know your Ps, Qs, and everything in between.You’re not entering into your new business blindly, au contraire. You’ve sorted out nearly everything you need to make your startup a success. But life’s all about the curveballs, and you never know what might get thrown your way... Luckily, I'm here to help!“The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing.” – Walt DisneyThree easy tips to make your startup a smash hit success...1. Content is keyCan you think of a successful business that doesn’t have an Instagram profile, Facebook page, or blog? Probably not.Why, you might ask. Well, creating engaging, highly-shareable social media content is key to getting your brand out there. On top of that, it helps establish you as an expert in your field, so potential customers or clients feel that they can trust your products or services!2. Get to work networkingThis tip is an oldie but a goodie... Success isn’t about what you do as much as who you know. When you invest time not only in meeting entrepreneurs from your industry, but also going above and beyond to help them, you’re building a support system. While competition certainly has its place, camaraderie can go even further in ensuring your business stays afloat.3. Refine your brandYou’re more likely to buy from a friend than a business, but, luckily, your brand can *and should* be both.This comes down to a few things… First, make sure your product or service aligns with your message. On top of that, use consistent messaging across all social media platforms and that you know your ideal customer or client like the back of your hand! This’ll let them know that they mean more than you than just another sale."Who’s the entrepreneur behind all these business tips?"
