5 Key Success Element

When you are starting out in business it's easy to become down hearted and give in to failure. This is also true if you've hit a rough spot in your business and the sales are down or you haven't had a client in a month. But take heart. Here are some elements that will help you keep your chin up whether you're starting out in business or you're in need of a little business mental pick me up.

1.       What's Your Reach? There are only so many hours in a day and that means only so many people you can speak to. So how can you maximize your reach and speak to as many people in your target market as possible? Check your channels.

2.       Who's Your Target? We can't stress this enough. If you don't have a defined target, you don't have a business. Who is your target market? Can they afford you? Where is your target market located?

3.       What's Your Level of Engagement? How long can you keep your customer occupied? Is your solutions designed to help them with one problem or does it expand in complexity as the customer grows or their life changes?

4.       Are Your Viral Ready? What's your "super distribution" index? What are your customer's saying about you and your service? Have they left comments, are they sending your referrals? Have you placed tutorial videos that are getting views? How many? Check your links both in and out. More in means you're getting more visitors. The more they visit the better your chances of making money off of them.

5.       How's Your Mobility? Well if your clients can buy from your website that's great; but what about your mobile customers? Can they buy with the same security and ease? Make sure, many people now spend most of their time living mobile lives and conduct shopping and business from their iPads and Smartphones. Make sure your business is keeping up with technology.
