Small Businesses Are Beautiful
Small Businesses Are Beautiful - Here's Why! By Louise Thornton Are you lucky enough to run a small business? Do you realise what a brilliant position you are in? Have you raised your eyebrows at me yet? I'm genuinely not crazy. I believe that small businesses are beautiful and here's why: As a small business owner you are in a much better position to respond to the changing needs of both your customers and an ever-changing market. Think back over the last two years - how much has your business evolved? The changes in the credit market made life tough for a lot of big businesses and there were plenty that didn't survive. As a small business you no doubt encountered similar problems but on a smaller scale, and if you were smart and made adjustments to your business then your subsequent survival has ensured that you learnt a valuable lesson. Resting on your laurels is simply no longer an option. You must constantly adjust your course as you sail through the course of a year. It's likely that just to keep up with the near constant changes that will continue to occur, your business strategies will need to completely change and be updated around every two years. Your customers also hold different expectations today to those that they held two years ago. Now there is a much higher value placed on service, more so than ever before. At the end of the day, if you're not happy to go the extra mile to meet your customers requirements then it's absolutely certain that one of your competitors will. Make friends with your customers. Understand why they buy from you. Understand what brings them back. Ultimately it's much more cost-effective to sell more products to the same customers than it is to be constantly finding new customers. Your marketing must be up to scratch and the key here is consistency: small daily actions add up to a big result! Most small business owners bring such vitality, energy and enthusiasm to their businesses that it's a pleasure for them to go to work. When you truly do what you love then work stops being work and starts being fun. The joy becomes evident to everyone they meet on a daily basis and because work is fun then the level of service that their clients encounter is much higher. Small business owners pour their hearts and souls into their businesses. They're proactive when it comes to change, they look forwards not down. They relish the challenges that each day brings and stretch themselves to meet them. And that, is why small businesses are beautiful. I'm on a mission to make all small businesses beautiful and to start, I'm offering complimentary strategy sessions.

How To Grow A Small Business
Growing Your Business - The Challenge Do you already have a small business which you want to grow and make more profitable or are you starting a new business? This page is designed to help you to think about the different ways you can grow your business to the size you. There is no "right size" of business, just the right sized business for you. Models Of Business Growth The first thing you need to do is to understand the way your chosen business model works over time. Only then can you recognise which are the important levers and decide which you need to be concentrating on developing and improving. Introducing The League of Extraordinary Minds Because you want to grow your business, you'll want to look at this excellent offer. Business growth master and marketing expert Jay Abraham has brought together 54 of the best business brains to form the League of Extraordinary Minds. Starting in late October you have the chance to listen to 9 panel interviews for free as small groups of these experts discuss how to thrive in today's economy while your competitors are struggling to survive. This is being a huge success with over 27,000 entrepreneurs joining in the first four days and many more have taken up the option to hear these ideas for free since then. The first call on gaining customer trust featuring 7 of the League really helped to move from concept to something tangible that you can see the value. Highly recommended for any small business owner who wants to grow and/or improve profit. The Accounting Model For Profit I know that you are in business for profit so it is important to make sure that you understand how profit is generated before talking much more about sales growth. At its simplest Profit = Sales - Costs where Sales = Turnover = Revenue = Income = Fees It doesn't matter what terms you use, the important thing to always remember is that profit is the difference between sales and costs. Because profit is the difference, you can't work on profit directly. You have to think of increasing your sales and reducing your costs. On this basis there are only three ways to grow your business profits: 1. Increase your sales volumes 2. Increase your selling prices 3. Reduce your costs The 3 Ways To Grow A Business - Jay Abraham For many years it has been claimed that Jay Abraham has been the highest paid marketing consultant in the world (and as he charges $5,000 per hour and a slice of the extra profit created it is is not hard to believe.) Jay Abraham's "Three Ways To Grow A Business" is famous for its powerful simplicity: 1. You increase the number of customers 2. You increase the average transaction value 3. You increase the number of times the customers buy per year. Nearly everybody makes the mistake of focusing on number 1, increasing the number of customers and ignores the opportunities available from the other two methods. The Three Ways To Grow A Business - Mark Joyner Best selling author and entrepreneur Mark Joyner has identified an alternative approach in his book "The Great Formula" 1. Get your message in front of more eyeballs 2. Get more money per eyeball 3. Sell more products to your customers on the back end. This model is a little more complicated because it brings the marketing issues into the equation together with your conversion rate of turning enquiries into sales. In an Internet Marketing world we can see that the eyeballs relate to the number of hits a website may get. Many of those people are going to click away, either because the page wasn't what they thought, they have seen a better offer elsewhere, they are not convinced or they are not ready to buy. But some will buy so the more money per eyeball is a combination of the number of people who buy and the amount of money they spend divided by the number of eyeballs. So you grow by a) persuading more customers to buy b) each customer spending more money This is effectively a restatement of the first two items in Jay Abraham's 3 Ways To Growth model but it is a different way of looking at it. Website traffic that isn't relevant and not interested in what you are selling is a waste of any time and effort spent in attracting it. Yes it will increase the number of eyeballs but because the traffic won't convert into sales, the money per eyeball falls. The last point in Mark Joyner's formula is vital - making extra sales to your customers after they have bought once. Although increasing the back end is a key Jay Abraham concept, his three ways to grow model does not make this factor as explicit. If you create a business which consists of spending money trying to attract potential customers, spending more time and money converting those prospects into customers and only have a one time sale, you have a very tough business. The key message is that the profit is in the back end - the sales you make to your customers after their first transaction and after you have recouped all the costs involved in your lead conversion and lead generation.

The Advantages of Starting a New Business
New businesses may be started in many ways, including a home-based business, a service business or a traditional storefront business. Many businesses may be started part-time so that you can have your business up and running before quitting your job. Regardless of which business you choose, new businesses offer many advantages and exciting opportunities. Independence One of the biggest advantages to starting a new business is the independence that it provides. Starting a business is hard work and requires commitment, but you have the freedom to work in the field of your choosing and to design your business and policies. You will set up the business to suit your needs and lifestyle. Lower Startup Costs Every business will have some startup costs. For a home business, it may be as simple as a laptop computer or there may be extensive costs for starting a business, such as a restaurant. Either way, if you start your own business, you are not spending more by buying into an already successful business. Fresh Start When you start your own business, you have the opportunity to design your own style, name and reputation. You will not be required to fit into the mold of another company as you would if you decided to pursue a franchise opportunity rather than opening your own business. Increased Income When you work as an employee, you are paid by the hour or by commission of what you personally produce. However, as a business owner, you will receive a portion of the profits of the entire company. If you have employees or grow to more than one location, you will be paid on all of this income, even though you did not personally do the work yourself.
