Building a New Business

Building A New Business


Some of the most successful businesses that we will know in history are still being built by hungry, smart and innovative entrepreneurs.  I know this because of the people I talk to almost frequently while working in  proprietary management consulting.  Many are starting off small while others are navigating the tech world  with a posse and gaining  impressive levels of funding from all the right investors  from seed money,  angel  investors and VCs  (when they are already selling and distributing their products/service).  

Securing funding is a big part of what the CEOs  and Executive Directors of these new companies do day in and day out to assure that they can launch an operate. 

There are other crucial things that are required and are especially recommended for those just starting out. 

If you are trying to" Open for business," be  open for blessings and insights too.  Here are some fundamentals whether you are building a small 1-2 person business or planning the next IPO: 

*Find the white space
*Assess your skills? Team, Advisory and Board, Collaborators,  Management Consultation
*Focus:  Have you identofied the right audience? 
Know the demand and" sociographics.  "Do you customers work for you?  Do you have internal consumers? What is the customer / audience behavior?
*Innovation: Are you different? Are you a unicorn?
-Execute in new and high quality way
-Use Technology
- Disrupt the status quo

*Simplify the customer experience and make it seamless for them to get the benefit of their dollars or consideration
* Understand user experience as PR:  "User experience" is often defined by what the engineers create for engagement but this considers  what I call "HX" - Human Experience. 
 - Your HR team, your sales team, your customer service, your vendors must be compassionate, have great manners and professionalism. They are representives of  your brand.

*Capitalize on the trends - know what is popular in the market and keep that insight a part of the job of everyone to share what they see everyone researches the same way everyone sells.
*Solve problems that are real to stay relevant

*Dream big. BIG!  Always drive for excellence and never settle for mediocrity; instead ask for help. Establish best practices.

*Be a perfect example of enthusiasm and great results in your industry.
*Go get it - There is enough for everybody. 

 Hoping yours is the next legacy family business or IPO as you goals and dreams dictate.

LETTING GO....

  L-E-T-T-I-N-G    G-O You have seen these words before..yes? Very simply written in nine letters. “L e tting  go .” Why does it make you uncomfortable?  It is simply an action that you as a human being experience every single day, just by physically and chemically existing.  It is an action that occurs when you have complete trust in your intuition ; that heaven sent voice inside of you. You know the one you may not always agree with, but the angels are so fond of you ..they send it into your ears, head, heart , and sometimes your eyes? If you are reading this your eyes open and they shut very quickly ..it is called "blinking" but in fact it is letting go and it happens very quickly. As we blink old light goes away and we allow new light to come in …seeing the next moment. As you turned on your computer or device you may have pressed a button, touched the screen, flipped a switch. As you clicked on your mouse, stroked and released keys on the keyboard, raised your fin

Show some respect. He is not your companion. He is your Commander -In - Chief.

The blatant and horrid disrespect of our Nation's President started long before the State of the Union address where he was called a " liar"  and continues with  even worse name calling and racial attacks. Our President may be referred to as the following:  " Mr. President", "The Honorable Barack Obama", "His Excellency,  Barack Obama", and of course President Obama.  Nothing less is acceptable. Even referencing him by first name alone (as many people do) is out of line unless you are First Lady Michelle Obama. While I think we are a global family, I also think these ongoing episodes do much to  further segregate America and give it the image of our country as a place of disgrace, disuntity, and hate. Imagine trying to explain it to a 5 year old who followed the campaign and elections with her family and proudly declared that " Our President is Barack Obama and Ms. Michelle looks like my Nana."

The Attack on Womanhood by " so gone" women

I AM outraged and sickened by some of the behavior I have seen by women online in the recent few days. Guess what women? We use social media to post and share at greater portions and frequency than our male counterparts and we could use it for good more so than anything else. It and we are all- powerful tools in social evolution and wellness of our world. Following is my open letter crafted after seeing how some women have chosen humiliation over humility using social media this week and likewise it is for some of you women who are in my opinion "so gone": Dear YOU, And we as women are crafted to be compassionate creatures; allegedly with a mammalian instinct to nurture and protect; not just children --but the Divine intention is for Shakti grace; so we are to protect that which is vital and life affirming amongst each other as women. This is important ESPECIALLY as it applies to other women and children who depend on us to get here and thus impact perception of all hu
