Business Advice for Novice Entrepreneurs - Birmingham

Given my purpose as an equipper to business leaders in Birmingham, AL it is only natural that novice entrepreneurs would come to me with questions and requests for developing their thoughts on establishing a new business.  Young (not necessarily in age but in experience) entrepreneurs come to me regularly in need of direction, resources, and investment. 

Please accept this message as my most sincere answer to that need.

The single greatest advice I can give a novice entrepreneur is to gain a firm orientation to the general practice of operating and marketing a successful business.  Gaining practical knowledge in building a healthy business for that matter is the starting point for me to help seekers with financial assistance or investment of my time and resources toward start-up executives.

Business success starts with the essential competency in compliance, accounting, brand management, marketing, salesmanship, and emotional quotient (EQ) to include recruitment and management of relationships. 


With that being said my core function is to equip business leaders with synergistic value-added relationships and facilitate investment that brings a return to the organization I represent being the ULECx Market.  Speaking of synergistic relationships the aforementioned resource recommendations I believe are terrific starting points toward developing a successful business enterprise.  These are individuals and organizations that have the capacity and track record of working directly with seedling business leaders.  These individuals either have answers to questions or are a step toward finding the answers.  In any case, I believe they are friendly landing points to uncover the strategic knowledge missing from novice business leaders.

  2. To be an honest motivational speaker which will impact on the lives of others you ought to specialise in the topic of choice and this will be achieved by adherence to the outline. The introduction part should inform the audience who you're while the body should give the insight on the topic . Thus your stories and people of others and quotes either from you or others can make it strong but it's important to acknowledge the source of your quotes. Doing this may broaden your scope and keep the speech from looking love it is all about you but rather making it to be an excellent gift from you.
