Story Ideas:
is self-employment still “RISKY”? As layoffs (and the threat of layoffs) continue to increase, traditional employment loses its perceived “security”… and self-employment loses its perceived risk. Still, research says many small businesses will fold. Michelle shares the top FIVE reasons small businesses fail…including the increasingly frequent tendency to lower prices in an effort to boost business… and how to avoid becoming a casualty on the business battlefield.
marketing “SECRETS” and why you don’t hear about them. The most effective and results-oriented marketing efforts are cheap or FREE. Print ads, TV commercials, billboards, and radio spots are expensive… and increasingly (alarmingly) ineffective. Yet, small business owners continue to hemorrhage cash, throwing good money into paid marketing efforts that aren’t producing results. Michelle will share (exactly) how she launched her first business – quite profitably – with only $50 and NO paid marketing.
why illegal businesses are worth studying. Prostitutes, drug dealers and other “illegals” can’t join their local Chambers, aren’t invited to “networking” events, and certainly can’t advertise in their local Yellow Pages or advertorial publication. YET, these businesses can be quite profitable. What can LEGIT businesses learn from the marketing tactics of these unsavory entrepreneurs?
