I am re-launching a series that has proven to be extremely helpful to small business owners. 10 core elements essential to your business. This week’s focus in product, and more specifically, the question:

What is your product really?

I’m relaunching a series on the 10 core elements that are essential to your business. What is your product really? For me, when people asked me about what I did I simply replied, “I talk to small business owners”. That was not enough information. I didn’t have a process, a plan, or anything else to tell them about which showed me that I didn’t know what my product was.

How you can approach your business in a way that makes it easier for you to understand your business?
Inventory, product, clients, business structure, etc. Those pieces, what do you pay attention to and how do you make them work together in a way that makes them work for you. Personally, I’ll be using these pieces for the next year to better understand my business and identify what changes I may need to change.

Happy Holidays!

How can you use the holidays to expand your business? No matter what religion you are or what your spiritual practice is, it�s the time of year for giving. Do you run a business that has giving as part of it? Do you provide a service to people? Does your product serve others by helping them do something more easily?
Every small business is in service to someone or something. From dog collars to plumbing equipment no matter what your business is, you�re contributing to helping making the planet a better place. If you think your product isn�t serving or offering something of service to others, I challenge you to look deeper and see how it actually is. Write down three ways your products serve. I offer empowerment, freedom and abundance in both my real estate investment and small business consulting.
What service does your product offer? Once you�ve figured that out, offer a holiday campaign that is rich in cheer and that shows how your product or service brings happiness during the holiday season. Once you�ve successfully done that, you�ve just anchored a message to your clients. Now strategize what kind of discount, extra service, or new package they can take advantage of during this holiday season. People are ready to make purchases during this time of year, they save money for this season, so incentivize, reward, and encourage people to interact with your product.
