Starting a Small Business?



Hey neighbors!!

Today many people are working from home.  They might work for a large company or perhaps they have started a home business.  I am presently working on a home business.  I found a site GrowThink that has information that can help someone who is starting a new business of their own.  They have an article that lists 10 components to your business plans.  I read through, and although not all of them would apply to me personally there are several points I need to consider. when setting up my own plan.

For example, they mention Customer Analysis.  I am presently trying to explore different ways of reaching customers of different ages.  I need to choose a target audience, and focus on products/methods that will meet their needs and appeal to them.  I think I am presently trying to reach everyone, instead of focusing on a specific group.  I don't want to narrow it too much, but at the same time I do need to set some guidelines that will keep me focused.  It will make my choices easier and remove some stress of trying to reach everyone.



Another topic is Analysis of the Competition.  I don't really have direct competition here, but a couple of companies do offer a different style or version of some of my items.  They are more indirect competitors rather than direct.  I want to make sure that what I offer is a good product at a reasonable price.  I personally want quality yet with a moderate price tag.

Since I am still basically in the setup and beginning stages, I am slowly finding my way and working through what I need to do to make this a successful venture.  If you are starting a small business, or perhaps you already have a small business you might want to take a little time and work or revamp your business plan.  Wherever your new adventure leads I wish you the best!  Thank you for stopping by today!!

What To Do About Those Fuzzy Uninvited Guests In The Home

When we talk about pests in the home, the most common that we tend to deal with are the creepy-crawlies that find their way in. Ants, termites, and spiders, for instance. Occasionally though, you have a real chance of getting a much bigger, fuzzier unwanted guest in the home. What do you do about the fact your home is at risk of becoming a wildlife sanctuary for some truly unhealthy and even dangerous beasts? Picture by Alexas_Fotos Know the signs It doesn’t matter if you’re in a suburban home, a country cottage, or a fourth-floor apartment. Some animals can find their way just about anywhere. It’s worth knowing the signs of pest infestation so you can confirm it and act on it immediately. Spotting droppings, keeping an ear out for scratching, and looking for signs of nesting like shredded paper, scrunched leaves, and grass clippings around the home without explanation can help you start fighting back.
