Free On-line Business Videos and Lectures
We are continually searching the internet to find resources that can
help you in your business.
It is important to educate yourself so you have a good knowledge of
business even before you start.
I hope you find these of help in making your business successful.
These are just three videos we have
selected but you will see when viewing, a list of related videos on
the web site that may be of interest to you.
Marketing
Your business strategy is the single biggest factor which determines
the success or failure of your business. It doesn’t matter whether you
are a large or small business but you need to get it right and you
prosper but get it wrong and it could result in the failure of your
business
What you need to do is set aside time to sit down and make a marketing
plan for your business. Set yourself a list of achievable resolutions
your business should focus on and it does not need to be too formal.
Think about you goals for the coming year and how you will attain
them.more
Funding for a startup business One question I am
asked more than any other is "Where can I find funding for my startup
business" Obtaining money to start your business is not easy but not
impossible.
Friends and family are a source of funding but take care when you make
this approach as it can cause problems if your business is not
successful and family or friends lose their money.
You will see on this
site we have a page where we have listed a number of lending
organisations Biz Capital but I must
stress that when you make an approach to a lender you must have
carefully developed a business plan so that they can clearly
understand what your business is about and that you will be able to
repay the money.
You will need provide
a substantial portion of the funds that the business will require
because I am sure that most lenders today will want you to carry some
risk with the business venture.
The lender will also
be considering you personally to see if you have the ability to
operate your own business. I have found over the years of experience
in businesses that some people should have not have considered going
into business as they are more suited to being an employee.
This is not a
criticism of people who are employees as their are many people who
have become very successful as employees and are more suited to this
type of work and in many cases they are much more financially secure.
All I can suggest
that if you are determined to go ahead is to "PLAN-PLAN-PLAN" because
planning and research is the key to success and financial
independence.
In today's financial
environment you have to be much more careful with what you do, with
both the market place and lending much more difficult but it could be
said if you set up today and operate successfully you will have much
more success when the economy changes for the better.

Brand: More than Graphic Design
Many people believe that branding is about having a
unique logo, but a brand is more than a logo, or a tagline, or a glossy
brochure. Whilst a logo is a great way to communicate a powerful idea
about your business and can increase the recognition of your company,
leading brands such as Air New Zealand, Starbucks, Nike, and Apple
Mac, also recognize the need to deliver on the promise behind their
imagery.more

Starting a Business
So you are thinking of going into business. This can have advantages
and disadvantages. Running a business of your own will bring a sense
of independence, and a sense of achievement.
You will be the owner, and you can't be fired, though there may be
days when you would welcome it.
Its not difficult to establish a business
but the challenge is to keep it going, which is why people clearly
need to put a lot of purpose and effort into their businesses.

business and ask lots of questions and I am sure in most instances

organization or groups that have regular meetings and they usually
have a visiting speaker and at the same time network and meet other
business people.
Buying a Business
So you hope to buy a business But where do you begin? Banks,
solicitors, business plans and decision making all take time and
money.
One of the benefits of buying a business is that you can get going
immediately. The challenges you'll face will be different from those
involved in starting up
First things first. It appears very evident but before you can even
think of starting up your business you need to understand what it is
that you hope to do.
Once you've hit on the type of business you want to buy you need to
work out a timetable. It'll be easier for all concerned if they
understand what sort of time scale they're working to.
