Our Business Profitability Improvement Plan contains powerful business strategies that you cannot find anywhere else. For example, you may not know how powerful a marketing tool, your business card can be. A lot of business owners do not know how to harness the potentials of the business card to achieve its desired purpose, which I'm going to show you here! Print complementary/business cards, with your business name, description, contact information and also include a call to action, to prevent your card from being forgotten or thrown in the thrash. When creating business cards, its purpose should not only be to get your name and business name known in the market. Remember that your business card is one of the most vital marketing tools you can use to promote your business. It should effectively motivate your prospects to take action. Keep in mind that this could be your first and last chance to get your target customers to look at your card so you need to make it good by making a strong call to action which they cannot refuse. You can consider inviting your prospects to visit your website to get a free sample. You can also ask them to present your card to get a special introductory price or a free gift. Whatever it is you offer, you need to make sure you give your prospects a reason to visit your website or patronize you. The idea here is to persuade your potential customers to take some kind of action. You can consider putting the call to action in front of your business card and be incorporated in your overall design. You can also present it at the back for your prospects to have a reason to turn your card over. Aside from the call to action, there are other things you should include at the back. For instance, you should list some of the products you offer and give a discount to first time customers. Remember to make the overall design of your card attractive and professional to look at. Keep in mind that your card represents you and your business, so look at it as a marketing opportunity to communicate essential information about your business to your customers. Feel free to give cards to prospective customers. Ask for permission to drop some cards at places likely to be visited by prospective customers such as banks, hospitals, eateries, restaurants and bars, hotels, churches, parks etc. Also give some complementary cards to your loyal customers to help you distribute to friends and family members. This is just a tip of the ice berg. These strategies are cost effective as most of them require little or zero financial commitment. Implementing one out of these scores of strategies in your business will give your business the exposure you have never imagined.

Before starting a business, the first step should focus on preparing a business plan that outlines how to create a competitive edge and profitable operations in the market. All businesses need to have a set plan of operations that will achieve profits and income for the business. Having a written strategy for achieving these goals, will help business owners to maintain a strong focus on creating a competitive edge and turning a profit on their business operations. Make sure to have a business plan, no matter how short. Understanding your profit numbers and creating a break even analysis is the first step in making a business plan.

To be successful in business,there is need to develop an entrepreneurial spirit.Not all businessmen are entrepreneurs.A businessman does what is in vogue while an entrepreneur does not jump on the business bandwagon.He scans the environment for opportunities i.e a need/gap in the market place yearning to be satisfied which individuals or businesses are willing to pay for.

He doesn't stop there.He goes further to innovate a product(good or service) capable of satisfying the identified need.Entrepreneurs do not create problems,they solve them.They are risk lovers since every business decision is associated with some amount of risks or uncertainties.

Entrepreneurs spot opportunities where other people do not see them.To the entrepreneur,business is a game to be played,enjoyed and won like football,basketball,table tennis etc.He develops strategies that would give him competitive advantage over his competitors.You do not need a degree or certification to become an entrepreneur.

The amount of capital you posses does not guarantee your success in business.Most successful entrepreneurs we know today,started with little or no money.What determines success is your state of mind,passion,attitudes,strategies amongst others.Some entrepreneurs are born,others made themselves.We all have the potential.The decision to become or not is exclusively our.

Entrepreneurs are the heroes and heroines in the economic sphere.They are the agents of social and economic transformation and change.They create jobs for themselves and others by establishing businesses.They raise the level of productivity in the economy by utilizing resources optimally.They are innovators of ideas,goods and services.

Entrepreneurs take their destinies in their own hands. They are their own bosses,able to take their own ideas into action and use their potentials and energies to create wealth and status for themselves in the society.Managing your own business involves a lot of hard work.But the rewards of being a captain,the applause of an admiring crowd,recognition and self-fulfilment are there to savour.

Entrepreneurs are ordinary human beings with extra-ordinary abilities.They have developed certain skills,attitudes and behavior that enble them thrive where others fail.
