MY ANNIVERSARY FREEBIES: HOW TO BE SUCCESSFUL IN BUSINESS AND LIFE

I AM CELEBRATING MY ANNIVERSARIES WITH A LOT OF FREEBIES AND GOODIES!

Today 17th August marks the Wedding Anniversary to my friend now my wife and also exactly six years I left the banking system for an entrepreneurship, Myself and my wife initially planned to go out to a fun place and enjoy the day while thanking God for bringing us to this stage of our union, however, my wife decided to enroll for further training in her business where she would be learning how to use 3D and other sophisticated measuring and cutting edge instruments to improve her business and today coincidentally happens to be the first day of the training course, so we postponed our honeymoon till next weekend for her to start the training. In case you don’t know what my does, find out on her page here……………

Likewise, in order to put a mark to the celebration of my six years sojourn in self-employment, I also decided to share this FREE REPORTS on how to successfully start your own business with little or NO Capital.
Are you thinking about setting up your own business? Have you an idea for a new business but are unsure about how to proceed? If you have answered yes to either of these questions, this article could be of benefit to you. I am going to write about how to plan and create a successful small business. Do you need a second job while still in paid employment? Read on to gain a better insight….

Working two jobs is quickly becoming the norm instead of the exception.  Many people even work three jobs. Getting a Second Job for the Short Term is an essential ingredients to starting a business of your own……Related…..http://bit.ly/1JcxRNG

Many people are looking at ways in which they can become self-employed as they have had enough of being dictated to and fed up of long and frustrating commutes to work. They want the freedom of being their own boss and to be able to choose their own hours of work. I had this unpleasant feeling when I was working with Guaranty Trust Bank plc as a marketing personnel, it was fun at the beginning but as time went by it became a nightmare going to work every blessed day. I had to put in my resignation to avoid the pitfall of regrets that comes with JOB not driven by passion.

Leaving a full time career can be quite a scary prospect however. The security of having a regular income and other benefits such as a pension and a Loan, Health and Housing schemes can seem hard to let go. I am sure many people whether rightly or wrongly have opted to stick with this security and to merely keep their business plan as an idea, which they never see through or use.

Other people are willing and happy to take the risk and see it as a way of getting out of the rat race. When I took the decision in August 2009 to resign my appointment with Gtbank plc, I almost was crucified by my parent, colleagues, family and friends for leaving Certainty for Uncertainty, going from Known to Unknown and leaving a Paid Job to a Self-employed business ventures whose success has not been tested. However, the odds seem unfavorable at first, but it has become more passionate as time passes. I have fallen, failed, rises, succeed and had better experience in managing business, I have equally grown thick skin to the challenges of business, all these I wouldn’t have achieved if I am still in paid employment.

It has been 6 years down the line and I have not had any cause to apply for a job anywhere apart from my own small business venture which I have been managing after my resignation. In between this little period of transition from employee to an entrepreneur, I have achieved a quantum of experience, knowledge, goodwill and connections that comes with driving your true passion to attain success in life. I cannot begin to count my blessings or mention by numbers how much I have achieved since taking the decision to quit paid job but I can confidently reveal that I have set the stage for the BIG BANG! about to happen very soon. It’s been awesome seeing my humble
self as a consultant to people of different caliber while just enjoying what I like to do but still making cool money from it.
Surprisingly, my 6 years anniversary (2009, August 17th) as self-employed also coincide with my 2years Wedding anniversary (2012, August 17th), and going by my nature as somebody who is not loud in celebrating achievements, I have decided to commemorate these days by sharing the experience and resources I have gathered as a business person and as a FRIEND to my beloved wife. As a result of this, I will be sharing and giving FREE tools and resources from my Library to aspiring entrepreneurs and others who need the information for other reasons.

I will start by highlighting some steps you need to take before venturing into a business of your own. Some of these steps are highlighted below:

1.     When you have an idea for a new business you then need to think of a name to call it. You should keep this name quite short as it makes it easier to remember for people. It obviously needs to have something to do with the business sector you are entering. See free guide on how to register your business here.. http://bit.ly/1KqTjLl

2.     You will now need to work out how much money you will need to set up the business. This can be quite daunting but is essential. In the short term I would advise to keep these start up costs as low as possible, you can always buy or rent better machinery in the future as an example.

3.     Once you are aware of how much money you need, you then have to find it. You may have enough yourself via savings or a redundancy payout; however most people are not in this position. If you do not have enough money, you could try and raise money via the family, by seeking a partner or by releasing the selling of properties not needed immediately. There is also the option of a business loan.

4.     The next stage is to market your product or service. There are many ways of doing this including:
Ø The internet via a website
Ø An advert in the newspaper
Ø Direct marketing in the form of leaflets
Ø An advert in the social media
Ø Exhibitions
Ø Trade fairs
I would advise finding out where other people from your industry advertise as they will have tried and tested many of the above options.

5.     You then need to work out how much to charge for your product or service. You should always keep these charges fairly low at the outset in order to attract as many people as you can and to get some income in. You then hope that word of mouth will take over and the idea is that after a few months you will be in a position to increase your fees.

6.     It is also important to realize that we will make mistakes along the way. When this happens we need to think positive and not to beat ourselves up. It is an experience we can learn from.

7.     Always have belief in yourself. At times any business will go through a rocky period; this is when we need to be strong. In my opinion the more work we put in, the more rewards we are likely to obtain.

8.     Self-discipline is one of the keys to your success. Being able to choose your own hours of work may seem like a dream but it can prove to be many people’s downfall. We have to ensure that we work the required amount of hours. It is far too easy to stay in bed for that extra hour or to arrange yet another game of golf. These things are fine once you are established, but this is a long way off at this stage.

Are you struggling with the fact that you really don't know anything about how to put a business plan together? I have written well over 20 BUSINESS PLANS for clients in the past 2years, I have templates of Business in my Library ready to be given out for FREE on weekly basis.
The old adage “People don’t plan to fail they fail to Plan” cannot be more true when it comes to business.  All businesses should have a clear plan for success which involves actions if things should go wrong.  Whilst it is understood that no magic solutions guarantee a business will succeed there are some factors which are linked with success.  
What if I can offer you a solution that will help you to attain greatness, to become a success and learn about the best ways to put a business plan together?
I will be giving the first 100 people to subscribe A COMPLETE BUSINESS PLAN ON ANY BUSINESS in my compilation of 40 SMALL BUSINESSES YOU CAN START WITH LITTLE OR NO CAPITAL.
