Social media automation is using software tools to handle some of the time-consuming tasks involved in maintaining a professional social media presence. For instance, scheduling posts ahead of time, curating content for republishing, triaging routine customer queries, and producing analytics reports are all examples of social media automation. However, not all social media tasks can or should be automated. Integrating social media automation into your workflow can take a bit of initial legwork, especially if you are used to doing everything yourself. Cross posting the same text across all your social accounts might save a few minutes, but the cost in credibility is high. Instead, take the extra time to adjust your message for each platform’s audience.

There are many forums and places where Amazon sellers congregate online, if you can find where these audiences congregate then this could be a way to approach them. If you have found niches is there any reason you wouldn't want to develop an online presence yourself? Platforms such as Amazon, eBay, Etsy and Shopify make it very easy to get going. There are even software tools to allow you to manage platforms centrally. The cost, knowledge required and the barrier to entry is low, and once you can see what is working via the platforms, then selling directly via Shopify or similar can help you get even higher margins Good luck!

It does not have to be unique. Simple ideas are enough, just keep in mind that it must help the masses out there struggling with a problem, thus creating a gap in the market. Having an idea is important. The mere definition of the word business brings to the fore the importance of the idea. At the heart of every business is a product or service. The business idea creates a reason to invest and it also creates sales and profit. With sales and profits come the scope to invest in more products and services, enabling the business to grow. All that said, if you have a bad idea, you are more likely to face competition. In turn, this will lead to reduced sales and profits, meaning the business is less likely to grow and may struggle to survive. Ideally, it should be a product or service that is difficult or impossible for others to copy. Competition from other businesses only does one thing, reduce profit. That said, monopoly businesses do not have to be another Google or Facebook.

For a long time, Apple considered Apple TV to be a hobby, not a real product worth focusing on, because it did not generate a billion in revenue. However, for a start-up, getting to $50 million in revenue can be the start of a wildly successful business. But being a start-up affords many advantages most giants would salivate over. As a nimble start-up you can leverage those to succeed. It is hard to build a $10 billion revenue business doing just one thing, and most giants have a broad portfolio of businesses, numerous products for each, and targeting a variety of customer segments in multiple markets. There are a host of things you can do specifically because you do not have the same scale as the giants. The giants certainly could not.

Clarity might be a good point to start if you search for "social impact mentor" https://clarity.fm/search/social%20impact Otherwise, there are a number of platforms out there, the best approach would be to research on Google based on your specific needs and geographical location. Facebook also runs a social impact mentoring platform https://socialimpact.facebook.com/mentorship/ for Facebook groups focusing on social impact so it could be worthwhile also searching on Facebook for relevant groups. Good luck!

Knowing your target market is a core part of your business plan and go to market strategy. Survey potential customers, find the pain points, offer them a solution which solves it and if they can't live without it you've got a winner. There may be some information online but this is a pretty important part of the process to get right and will require a lot of manual research so that you don't end up creating a product there is not a need for and making sure there are (enough) customer out there willing to pay. Good luck!

Having been in the same position I can empathize. It's normal to be both excited and scared. There are risks but also great rewards in creating a successful company. Different people will have different ways of deciding when to go all in. My approach (which may or may not be applicable) was to de-risk as much as possible, i.e. get as far as possible with the MVP before being all in. Some important considerations were: 1. Having emotional/financial support from family/friends 2. Having completed all the go-to-market steps (even though the plan is never exactly how it turns out to be). 3. Getting comfortable with the financial implications e.g. investing my own money, not taking a salary in the first year, and the lost income. 4. Making sure it was the right time in my life to take such a risk. Ultimately it could be a massive success or... not If you fervently believe in your idea you will only find out if you try :) Good luck!

Hi Great question, but it's really hard to answer without knowing what service you provide. Also, it really depends what percentage your talking about - if its low - I wouldn't waste time on it for now. I myself have personally wanted to use an online service which claimed to be free, and the sign-up deterred me so I just gave a wrong email address. If it's a once-off action on behalf of the user (for example converting a file), users are lazy and even something like giving their email deters them. I am happy to solve this issue with you, but I would need to get more details, following which we could have a short call to discuss the conclusions. Good luck

Who is going to use a company that allows their representatives to post spam ads in inappropriate forums? crazy

Almost every day people come to me to help him/ her find a purpose. Many had tried defining life mission, set SMART goals, develop strong passion, the law of attraction, you just name it ... but the outcome is unsatisfactory. There are a few challenges that keep holding them back: 1. the purpose seems to be incorrect after some times 2. unsure whether the purpose chose fit you 3. Too many choices, wanted to take up as much as possible 4. over concerns what is your life mission 5. unable to align current goals to your life mission 6. lack of imagination to visualize 20-30 years vision 7. excessive focus on setting a schedule to achieve the goals If you are facing the above, probably you need to consider looking for a robust framework that you can work on to a) find a purpose, b) progress smoothly. c) track progress. d) shape purpose, and e) create impactful values to bring more happiness to self and others. Please feel free to contact me if you need me to help to align your thoughts through a clarification session or a coaching program to develop the purpose using our Growth Framework so that you can achieve a) to e) above.

Find people that work in that company doing what you want to do and reach out to them. Tell them you really admire the company and tell them your interested in setting up an informational interview at their convenience. Once you e made the connection and some the interview ask how one might go about getting an internship. They might be able to help you get your foot in the door. If you need any help on making connections please feel free to set up a call with me!

Clarity is the best place to find one, but as I can see from your question you are looking for more. Networking events are designed to put people in contact with one another, making these events perfect opportunities to expand your professional network. For example, there might be a start-up incubator with an open workspace where you can get some work done and still meet some new people in the industry, or else a weekly brainstorming meeting among creative minds at the downtown library. Through SCORE, you can request a free face-to-face meeting with a mentor to discuss your business idea and you may be able to form a more lasting partnership.

Call the customer service phone number at Square or use whatever support method they offer. I doubt anyone else can give you an accurate answer without more info. For example, what if you have a poor history on the platform or something similar...

It's easy to get hung up on the word "strategy." There's no magic in it: a GTM strategy is just a documented set of decisions and a plan. It's words on paper, and the purpose of it is nothing more than alignment. To hit your sales, revenue, and margin targets, you've gotta get and keep everyone on your team aligned on what needs to be done, why, by whom, and when. A good GTM strategy document answers all the questions mentioned in other answers. Questions about buyers & pain points, budgets, product overview, competition, differentiation, pricing, partners, sales & marketing plans, success criteria, etc. A great GTM strategy, however, will inspire your whole team to row hard in the same direction and make some magic together. The way you engage your team (or don't) in the process of creating your GTM strategy, and the way you communicate it, makes all the difference. Give me a call if you'd like some help getting that right. https://clarity.fm/paulmcdonald

When a property is available for sale, the world should get to know about that fact. Sometimes, the people in the know of your requisition might tell their relatives to consider purchasing the property. The more people that know, the lower the turnaround time of a property getting sold. The installation and usage of LED lights and smart meters in your property will increase its green quotient. A sustainable home on offer will certainly induce the buyer’s interest. You may think that home repairs are out of your league, but trust us, you can easily handle many of these activities. Not only does it help you save money in the process, but also makes your home ready for new owners. Getting them fixed as soon as possible would give your property an edge.

There are three questions to answer: 1. Are you selling a wonderful product or selling something people know and wanted to have? 2. Turmeric more valuable or the latte? What values are you driving?

I am in Singapore, help many e-commerce businesses grow sales 5x to 15x last year. One major challenge to the growth is cash flow. There are many factors to look at and these 3 major areas are critical: 1. Cash flows - you need to study the cash flows patterns (short-term, middle-term, and long-term) and develop a cash flow model for your business. Without this, you can't even tell when and how much money you needed + unable to identify business survival risk from cash flows perspective + to determine where is the trapped cash 2. Behaviour of the revenue and cost - this is essential to help you determine the break-even point, commitments, maximize profit, strategies to increase revenue and reduce cost, how much to invest in operation vs improvement of the business. 3. Capital structure - there are 3 main sources of cash, i.e. revenue, loan, and equity. There are other areas such as Government grants and donations which the impacts are not significant enough to focus on. When we talk about capital structure, we will look at what is a good mix of loan and equity to manage your business gearing risk. After you have the above 3 sets of information, you can determine how many loans to take up and how to allocation them to different aspects of the business. Do note that good cash flows management will improve your cash position, but to increase your sales, other techniques are needed but not discussed here. +22 experiences in helping +350 SG and Asia companies to grow from a startup to listed across many industries.

I will suggest landing page. I clicked the link and I was not impressed. A landing page should offer all the necessary information, but not so much as to overwhelm the visitor. Provide the essential info that will interest your audience and nothing more. We just discussed how you do not want to information-smother visitors, but this isn’t to say you should be cheap with your content – on the contrary, provide rich, useful content, so long as it is relevant. The goal is to funnel visitors down a desired pathway, and if links serve as points of departure from the funnel, they should be used sparingly. Make it easy to convert. The goal is to make it as easy as possible for visitors to convert, providing as little distance and as few barriers as possible between points A and B. The next step should always be obvious. This strategy varies depending on what your desired conversion is. Information architecture comes into play here, as it is important for a landing page to have a clear, crisp design that leaves all questions answered without inspiring any new ones.

There are a number of different ways of reaching angel investors. First, identify the type of angel investor you are looking for. Then initially look within your own network, share what you are doing and you might be surprised. Next research where your investors hang out and try and be part of the conversation. Maybe there are incubators or accelerators that would be suitable and who can support you or facilitate investor introductions, meetings, and pitch events. Maybe it might make sense to seek a grant or get funding from a partner who would also benefit such as in the education sector? Another option that takes time is to find and connect to your investor audience through networks such as LinkedIn. You can then nurture those relationships over time, ask for advice, keep them updated, take conversations offline, and establish trust. Then probably after 6+ months of nurturing when you do raise funds, you should have earned a warm relationship that will allow you to approach them with regards to potentially funding your business. Warm intros are definitely the best approach. Once you have your initial investors keep building relationships and they may recommend new investors next time round. Worth noting with angels there is smart and dumb money and you may find that a coach/mentor from your sector provides more value compared to an angel who may be able to support you but on a more general high level. But as a rule of thumb always ask for support, your investors will usually provide, they are aligned with your potential success. Good luck!
