Never stop learning – understanding the business market is essential. This means studying competitors, the condition of the market, where the market is going and the average lifetime value of the product.
Maintain focus – it is important to stay singular in focus and remember that because the business is a success in one market, does not necessarily mean it will be a success in another. Each market requires its own focus.
Remember your competition – in business there is always someone working to take your place. This will keep any entrepreneur on their toes.
Understand your distribution model – take advantage of the full level of distribution in your niche.
Your weakness is your greatest strength in disguise – what one perceives as their biggest weakness might well be the spark to the fire their fuels their success.
