She leaves a company that sales totaled over $1.5 billion dollars with 450 full time real estate agents and six offices in the metropolitan Atlanta area. Her plans are “to pursue personal development”, contribute more time to civic works and expand her speaking opportunities (she averages 75 per year).This entrepreneur is truly l

    Traps for Young (and Old) Entrepreneurs
    It’s common knowledge that most small businesses fail within 5 years. These statistics are mindblowingly depressing for people looking to start up a new venture. So what goes wrong? No-one starts out with the intention of creating something that isn’t sustainable. In fact most people would be adamant that they weren’t going to be one of those statistics.Most business owners start out as technical expert in their field. For example – an engineer decides to start their own company after working for someone else for several years. He/she knows plenty about engineering, but
    Being a small business owner often means wearing a number of different hats. How many of you act as the CEO, the general manager, the accountant, the salesperson, the computer technician, the secretary, the receptionist, etc…? Sound familiar?

    Many entrepreneurs try to chase too many targets at once and end up overwhelmed rather than focusing on their business. They spend all their energy carrying out daily tasks leaving little time for the most important part of their business - their own business!

    To avoid this, spend some time focusing on your business and decide which strategies will be most helpful in developing your own marketing plan. In order to grow and succeed in your business, you first need to have a crystal clear idea of what you want to do and where you want to go. In other words, have you defined your objectives? And more importantly, have you put them in writing?

    Strong Leaders are Strong Communicators

As we approached departure time, judging by all the activity outside the plane, we weren't likely to leave on time. In a few minutes the captain announced, "You can see a lot of activity on our left wing. This is a maintenance crew trying to replace a defective fuel pump.

    More Customers - Watch those Little Things

Efficient and effective they were too.So someone came to collect it the next day and, as they said, I got a call 5 working days later to say it would be delivered back, by courier, the next day.

    This was actually a new concept for me. In the French culture we are not used to doing this and when I tried to teach it to some of my French clients, they just thought I was nuts! But I understand why because it took me a while before I decided to give it a try. My thoughts were that I had always managed to get what I wanted without the need to write my objectives down. But since so many people here were already applying this concept to their business, I decided not to be stubborn and give it a go too.

    Wow! Since I have been using this concept everything has moved so much faster!
