Week 12- Open for Business

You made it!!! You have gone through the trenches of the start-up process and now it's time to show the world what you're made of.

If you started My 12-Week Business Challenge back in September, you have gone through all of the processes for starting your very own business. From establishing your legal structure to marketing to setting your prices, you have completed the course.  Now that you are ready to open, it's time to put all of the things that you have learned to use.

This week, you should spend time getting the word out about your products or services. Remember, this doesn't have to  cost you a lot of money because I have provided you with some very low cost, if not free, ways for you to market and advertise. Word of mouth is the best form of advertising because it is not only effective, but it's free.  Use your Facebook page (if you have one) to share your new business with friends and family.  Allow them to test out your products and services. Try not to do so for free, but offer incentives that would entice people to try out what you have to offer. 
Don't worry if you don't become a millionaire overnight. That is completely normal.  Know that not everyone is going to like your business and that is okay.  Your business was created for a target audience which means that not everyone is going to hoot and holler about it. HOWEVER, keep your head up and be confident that you have taken the steps to see your vision through.

Best of luck to you!
