Ask Yourself The Right Questions
Starting a business can be tough, but maybe these questions can help save you some blood, sweat, and tears.
Who’s your customer?
One of the most important things to do when starting a business is to define your target customers. This keeps you from spreading your time and resources in too many directions. You can’t actually market your product to everyone. By understanding the potential customer base, you can better know how and where to market your product.
What’s your product or service?
Before starting a business, you should know what products and services are going to be offered. A premium product or service is generally a niche market meaning you’ll be catering to a very specific customer base. However, a more affordable service allows you to expand your customer base. By defining the product or service, you’ll be able to better understand your target customers.
How do you reach them?
Both the product and target customers determine the marketing of it. An online business probably doesn’t want to invest much time in local advertisement, but a local business may want to utilize bulk mail or a newspaper ad.
