If we ignore the research step, we can make big mistakes. Every small business begins with research on marketing hypothesis; it is the secret to success. The formula for success is rather simple. Founders, executors, and investors need to take risks, make predictions about the future, and be right in doing so. The risk in market prediction will come up through the marketing hypothesis. The measures of this risk assessment are: qualitative data, quantitative data, heuristic data, intuition, and involving your stakeholders. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/aeknath/message

A business has two types of growth trajectory: horizontal and vertical. Horizontal progress is copying an idea that works, such as building more of a successful product. Vertical progress is new ideas. In the entrepreneur journey, money is the most important thing. And when working in a monopoly, an entrepreneur can focus on new products, and increase their income over other markets. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/aeknath/message

The first to act has the advantage. If you enter a market before your competitor, you have a chance to capture a significant share before they have even begun. However, the better option may be to act last and focus on a niche that your competition may have neglected. Remember, there are two methods of competition: perfect competition, where there is no product differentiation and an intense struggle for survival, and monopolies, where you focus on a market they have not touched. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/aeknath/message

Entrepreneurship is attempted by many but mastered by few. The three main types of successful founders are: The visionary, who possesses a deep intuition and domain expertise, to anticipate how products and markets will evolve. The operator, who oversees a complex, but flawless business and focuses utterly on their customers, and the connector; a magnetic leader who enjoys industry-wide appeal from customers and staff. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/aeknath/message

Small Business Operation: Founders must learn to do things by themselves. Even if takes years to develop the necessary skills. You need to be a jack of all trades to oversee each part of your venture. But do not fall into the trap of doing it all yourself. Hire a team you can rely on and assign each of them a task. Do not give one person more than one task—and ensure those tasks are completed quickly. As a startup founder, you will have three categories of workers you can assign tasks to: your in-house team, the partial outsource team, and the full outsource team. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/aeknath/message

Patience, resilience, experimentation, and risk mitigation. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/aeknath/message

Safe Solopreneurship: An entrepreneur must dive in with a strong idea and a willingness to tackle the day-to-day problems. This idea must be solely theirs, a brainchild, and a vision, which they believe in wholeheartedly. They must lean on their support system for guidance to design an appropriate team, fit to turn their vision into a reality. Next, they must move on with stake allocation. Their initial share of the idea should not be less than 75 percent, as this will keep them motivated, authoritative, and inspire them to lead. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/aeknath/message
