If you are starting out in business, a few things are generally understood. First of all, you need a plan, secondly you need to have a product, and thirdly, you should have a pretty good idea of who your market is. Also, you need to ensure that you have secured the financing that will see you through your company start up, until the business starts to pay you back.
But ask yourself, how many of really understand the real nature of our business? Is it really about having the best in technology, the greatest knowledge about your product or industry, or having the most offices available to contact you? Although all of these things are important and serve a key purpose in your business, they are not what your business is really about.
Your business is about Marketing your products and services. The consumer today is a much more educated shopper who does their homework before making purchases. The advent of instant access to consumer information has done away with spontaneous purchasing or using the local store because it is convenient. Although we may still patronize friends, or friends of friends in the business we are interested in, we also look beyond these methods to make sure that we are still getting the deal we want. To be successful today, any business person needs to accept this and adjust their thinking about what their business is really about. And once again, that is Marketing their business.
Any business person must realize that they are a Marketer first and a Retailer, Banker, Doctor, Real Estate Agent or Broker second. The acceptance of your role as a marketer is paramount to your success in whatever area you focus on.
