Most start-up companies don't have money to hire someone to sell for them. Yes. In the early days of your business, it's up to you!
No one is responsible for selling your vision, products and or services but you. In fact, it may be your ability to communicate your vision to others that allows you the opportunity to get valuable resources in the beginning stages of your business. You may have to convince investors or potential partners on your ideas in order to get initial funding. Or, you may have to be your company's very first salesman, obtaining new clients or customers. Many people feel that they "don't like sales." Well, that's just not going to cut it for entrepreneurs. Selling your ideas and vision is absolutely necessary in order for you to succeed. After you're well established, or when you obtain suitable funding, you may be able to attract talented individuals to represent your brand. But, until that time, it's up to you to make it happen. So if you want to succeed, you'll get your sales and presentation game in order. Your business survival will depend on it.

Please visit their brand new website and remember them when you need to purchase a new car. Website: http://www.UCanRideAuto.com Facebook: http://www.FaceBook.com/UCanRideAuto Business owners and managers must be visionaries. Period. They must be the type of people that can see the finish line and not be overly concerned with the obstacles that may be encountered along the way. The ability to see past obstacles and focus on the end result is the main thing that separates leaders from followers.
Of course obstacles shouldn't be ignored. You must be able to access the challenges that you will face in business and come up with strategies to overcome them. That's not the issue. The problem is that most people will see the obstacles and challenges in front of them and simply give up. They don't see those road blocks as opportunities. They simply can't or they are not willing to put in the work to solve temporary problems to experience the joy of success. Leaders... lead. You must be laser focused on the end game. You have to see the finish line. In the picture in this article, many people will see the steps above and make a decision whether they want to actually take the time and energy to climb them. Leaders and visionaries, however, are only focused on the satisfaction of looking out into the magnificent view from the top of those stairs. They quickly see the steps as minor temporary discomfort on their way to get where they ultimately want to go. While followers are still debating and contemplating.... a leader will already be at the top enjoying the triumphant view. Blog Post Stephen Wicks, Founder / Designer Stephen Wicks Internet Development Company Coca-Cola is one of the most recognized brands in the world. Since 1886, the company has been able to stay top of mind when anyone thinks of soda. That's a huge accomplishment. I believe that any company would want that type of branding success. Even though the company has been targeted by other soda companies, Coke has consistently been the brand that consumers think of most.

Stephen I often find that business owners are at a lost when it comes to social media marketing. Many of them don't understand that in today's climate, having an up to date social media presence is very important when it comes to impressing potential clients.
There is nothing more lame than going to a business' social media page and seeing that they haven't updated the content in weeks or God forbid, months! Having a social media account with old content is worst then not having an account at all. Today, consumers often research companies before doing business with them by Googling them, going to their website, and searching for their social media accounts. Having an up to date social media account with relevant content shows your potential clients and customers that you are here, relevant, and ready to do business. You're on top of your game. Your clients are looking for reasons to say YES to your business and having an up to date presence helps them say yes instead of "I'm not sure." The customer wants to know that you are up and running and can handle the new business with ease. Having old content makes it look like you're understaffed and over-worked. If you need help keeping your content up to date there are many social media companies that can assist. Do some research and find a company that is within your budget and that can make your business shine online. Your clients will be at ease and your bottom line will appreciate it also.
