Entrepreneurship – Top Tips

Starting a business is now a serious option for the nation’s youth and many already have a business idea. UHY FDW are passionate about supporting young entrepreneurs in their ventures. That’s why we are starting a new Young Entrepreneur Series on our blog, to provide helpful business tips, interviews with successful entrepreneurs and advice from our own team.

In our first Young Entrepreneur Series post, we look at the Top Tips for entrepreneurs.

There are many ways entrepreneurs can become successful and every young entrepreneur will take their own path in the journey to success but here are some key points that will inspire every type of entrepreneur.

Learn about your industry

A good place to start is to find out as much about the industry you are entering as you can. Read about the industry, the statistics, what motivates the people in that industry. Make sure you are fully informed. Use this as an opportunity to network also by going to industry events and conferences. Don’t follow you competitors.

Always be ready to pitch your business

Ideally have the pitch down to one line. Always remember that less really is more when it comes to pitching your business, make your pitch sharp, factual, interesting and authentic. If you spark interest you can then ensure you speak about your mission, services and goals. Have your elevator pitch down to a fine art and ensure you are able to tailor it so you can fit the pitch to the person you are speaking to.

“Whether you think you can, or think you can’t, you’re right.” – Henry Ford

Believe in yourself

You must believe in yourself and your business idea wholly in order to succeed. Overcome the self-doubt and the doubt you will undeniably receive from media, colleagues and industry competitors. Believe you can succeed and you will.

“If you’re going to start a business, you need to really love it because not everybody is going to love it.” – Arianna Huffington

Be passionate

You must have passion, courage and conviction. Nobody else will be as passionate about your business as you are. Your passion will drive your results, it is your inner fire. When you see the results you will be even more ‘fired up’ to succeed – this is the energy that passion will bring to your venture. Without passion you will run out of the energy necessary to push your business forward.

Learn from your mistakes

You will make mistakes. Every business does. The key though is to view your failures as opportunities. If you have an open mind you can learn from your experiences, whether they are good or bad. Ensure you stay positive and focused on your goals, take action when you make mistakes and you will push through the obstacles lead your team and business to your objectives.
