How do I design my business? I’ve never designed one before.
I once heard that when something doesn’t work out, or in other words, you ‘fail’… It’s just the universe telling you that you may be going in the wrong direction. I like that and I think I’ll buy into it.
After all, this is like a game and skills increase the more you practice.
A REALLY bad characteristic I have is that my slate needs to be clean before I can start something new. I don’t know if this is a sign of OCD. I think it may be. In my home, if I have to fix up a room, I would rather have nothing but the studs showing. That means a complete wipe of what is there. Demolition to the extreme.
I love a clean slate or a perfect avenue to work in. Everything has to be perfect for me to feel comfortable to work. As it turns out, this is not a good thing when it comes to starting a business.
Mobile Marketing
I have chosen mobile marketing as my business venture. It is perfect for me. I have always wanted to help local businesses. Since I first learned about the internet back in the early 90’s I knew that there was something in me that could help businesses out with their online presence. Here is my chance to combine a few things that I know very well with something I have always dreamed of doing and turning it into something I can do for a long time to come.
Here’s my plan.
Start out with introducing local businesses how mobile marketing can get their customers talking positive about them. This would be done by using gps based localized marketing. Foursquare, Yelp, Facebook, Places etc.
Once a business see’s the benefits, I introduce a mobile website and than move on to a full blown mobile marketing campaign complete with text marketing, social media, and local SEO tactics.
My next step is to design a few different options for the local business owner with different prices for my consulting services. I can breath because this is starting on a clean slate.
I’m psyched!
