Welcome to My new Blog Site
According to the U.S. Bureau of the Census, there are almost 600,000 new businesses started each year. The bad news is that over 90% of these businesses will eventually fail. Over 75 % will fail within 5 years. Even with failure rates this high, the entrepreneurial spirit in this nation lives, and the dream of being an independent business owner will cause another million or so people to try and beat the odds again this year.
So welcome to my blogging site, devoted to the entrepreneur which, hopefully, will provide ideas and suggestions to small business owners that will make business sense as well as financial cents (sorry for the play on words) and help improve the odds that your business will succeed.
So what is the defining difference between the 10% that make it, and the 90% that don’t? That is what we will explore in this blog.
We have all heard the phrase “Knowledge is Power”, but the reality is that having knowledge won’t help if you don’t do something with it. I prefer the phrase, “The Effective Application of Knowledge is Power.” It is applying what you know effectively that will mean the difference between success and failure.
As we begin this journey, please feel free to contact me, either by phone, mail, or e-mail if you have specific issues or questions you would like me to address in upcoming posts.
To Your Success -
