Having a Great Idea

You may have a great idea, but does anyone know about it? You may have a brilliant concept, a unique service, or a gorgeous product, but if no one knows about it, they are not going to buy it. There are many great ways to market your business that don’t cost a lot of money. A simple but professional looking website is the place to start. Creating a facebook group, writing a blog, and sending email newsletters and promotions are easy and effective ways to get the word out. What you know is important, but it’s who you know that will catapult your business from great idea to profitable enterprise. Is it what you know, or who you know? And, we believe that it’s important to network with anyone who will meet with you. Over time, you have learned that people who you least expect to be helpful for your business, turn out to be just the ones who help you move it forward. Ask the mom who volunteers with you in the classroom to have coffee and learn that she has a friend who owns a store and is dying to have your product. Networking is essential to getting your product or service promoted. Network with as many strong business units as possible on many blogs and share the lessons you have learned about promoting your business.
